I thought I'd add my 2 cents here. I recently joined Felton Trading, and I'm very impressed with Roger and my results in trading his methods. Frankly, I've been positive each day I've traded his methods (over the past 3 weeks).
Over the past 2+ years that I've been actively day-trading e-mini futures, I have bought into many methods and training programs. Iâve spent a lot of money on education over that period ($25K+ and counting). Do I regret it? No. Iâve learned something useful and valuable from each of the programs Iâve bought into. To give you an idea of who Iâve worked with, hereâs a list:
Traders International (yes, during the infamous Franz period)
Watts Trading Group
Advanced Trading Workshop
Trading Zoo
Right Angle Trading
Felton Trading
That doesnât include all the other books, âsystemsâ and other trading educational books Iâve purchased. What can I say? Iâm a curious fellow, always wanting to learn what works for others, knowing that thereâs probably something I can learn to improve my trading. While Iâve had my ups and downs as far as trading results, I can say that Iâve never blown up an account, or had to add to it. So I consider my $25+K in trading education well spent. The markets can be a much more expensive teacher!
If I may make an analogy, I canât point to specifically useful knowledge I gained from all the engineering, economics, philosophy and art courses I took in college 20 years ago (which cost a whole heck of a lot more than my trading education), but I can say that all those courses helped build a foundation of knowledge with which Iâve built my life and career on.
Anyway, back to Felton Trading. So even though I had achieved a very good consistency in my trading, I saw the value in joining FT because the types of trades that Roger teaches complement quite well my other style of trading. Those of you familiar with Traders International may think that Rogerâs methods are virtually the same (as I did). While there are many similarities, the subtleties that Roger teaches make a huge difference. Divergence trades are pretty straight forward. Knowing which to take and which to pass on, as well as which to scalp and which to hold for larger gains determines whether youâll make money consistently. Thatâs what sets Roger apart (not to mention his clear dedication to the success of his students).
Hope that helps.
P.S. To the cadre of ET skeptics out there, Iâm not a shill (sleeper or otherwise). Iâve been on ET for more than 2 years, and I even use my real name for a handle (how unusual is that!).
