Brad, the man! mvp lol. I heard 10% succeed in trading. Then saw your take... realistic goals may be the reason for only 10% succeeding. I may give it a go. Enjoying learning the terminology by listening daily. So very new to me. Your followers do love you Jordan.

I’m a poker player who’s trying to learn a thing or two about trading. Poker and trading has a lot of things in common. Development, experience, patience, honesty, bravery, adaptation and so on.

I watch all your uploads and I love the way you present things.
Much appreciated!

The beginning is just fantastic, as a person in the fifth decade of his life, I still see a great suggestion for myself. Thanks Jordan for all great knowledge you are sharing continuously! God bless you bro.!

[lorensaunders]

This is the FIRST video every single trader should watch before attempting to become one.

[babakganji]

I wish I had seen this video back when I was 18....Thank you Jordan

[JKirbs]

Thank you Jordan, I wish I could just quit my job and start trading, but over time I will build my portfolios and get in a position that I can walk away from my employer. My next 3 generations are counting on me. Thank you for all you do, thank you for your time, thank you for reaching a hand back and helping some of us over the wall. You are appreciated!

[Mitchmagic]

Great knowledge and wisdom in this! It is so killer you talk about Financial/Currency compounding. Most folk underestimate or do not understand the power of Compounding. I haven’t taken your course and I will look in to that. Thanks Jordan

[IBeinstine]

Man thank you I needed that. I watch your live stream everyday while I'm at work and I appreciate the sessions

[reddysteddy]

Brilliant thanks Jordan. Even better is if you consider you might take say 2-4 trades a week, let's average at 10 trades per month, and that compounding effect is calculated per trade instead of per month. So really it's 0.25% X 120 periods per annum (instead of 2.5% X 12 periods pa). The difference that makes in compounding is absolutely incredible!
Right now I'm comfortably averaging 4% per week trading forex majors, indices, ETFs, cryptos and a few stocks. And I don't feel like I'm over trading at all, but definitely feel like I've turned a corner, like a switch has been turned on and I can read the markets with much more clarity and calm.
I really wanted to thank you as so much of the patience I've learnt has been through you.

[miguel]

This was freakin awesome. Great work Jordan, appreciate all you do.

[mikesharp]

2-3% per month compounded is absolutely nuts. These are like early Warren Buffett returns. Absolutely fine (way more than fine) with me

[cooper]

Wow.. incredible video! Very inspirational. These are the words I needed to hear. Its like you knew exactly what was going on in my head.. The long term growth and focusing on realistic consistency is what’s important. I need to put greed and other emotions on the side and begin to constructively grow into the person and investor I strive to be.

[BlazeMrdr]

Hey Jordan, what are your thoughts on trading options vs futures with the same 2.5% monthly goal.

[georgebhangoo]

Your a good man Jordan following for a while now, good mentor thank you

[michaeltaylor]

Great video! Thanks for all the insight and analysis Jordan I've been watching the live streams and daily videos for the last month or so and it has helped a ton. This video provides some great realistic expectations for where I hope to get to. I started off this week with an unreal Monday/Tuesday with my account up well over 10% in 2 days only to give it back by getting too aggressive. In hindsight I should of slowed down rather then step on the gas but the market will always be there next week and with the knowledge you're passing on I know I will get there.

Unfortunately for me at this point I can't be an investor Jordan 💔 profits made gotta be used to meet expenses right now, being unemployed is hindering my progress. As much or as many times as I double my account balance my family responsibilities right now come first. One day thou one day I will be able to leave trades Inn for a weekly and monthly goal and reap them profits for the long term goal (please say amen 🙏} lol . For now I focus on my methods learnt from you on when to enter when to exit based on my weekly trades. My aim is to trade for the week and do my best to on a weekly basis end off as close as possible to my goal or going beyond. I have managed to be consistent since I have joined your community I swear to God prior to joining your community I was like a little kid jumping inn and out of different rides just to get to my destination and in the end only ending up back at the starting line. For me to have been able to constantly reach my weekly goals and go above them each month while being unemployed with all stress that goes along with that and thanks to your help and guidance it really is all I can ask for right now. I pray that God helps me find a job once again so I may have an alternate fixed source of income which will take care of the family and thus allow me to now continuously grow my capital. I wish I had found your community a few months back when I was employed and instead of being that little kid jumping on different rides at that time I would have had the ability to have grown my account balance yo a point so as to now not have to even bother about looking for a job but Alas God has his own plans I believe and all roads so far have led me to your community Jordan and I am truly grateful for you help your guidance and your support and love. it has helped me take care of what I need to and that's family. I am currently in a situation where I am not sure if I will be able to continue trading next month or not thou... However we will do our best with what funds are left over in the kitty to push on to the next month. I will not give up. I have learned so much from you Jordan in the last few months and I have seen progress I have seen bills paid and responsibilities lived up to. I know I have learned price action I have learned to read the direction the market is moving I have learned to pay attention to key issues that affect price I have learned that a chart is never always what it seems and that you can not for second think you can take a look at any chart and place a trade based on what you think is going to happen next without studying that price chart. I used to be a momentum trader chasing the market and I never got anywhere really. in my last 11 months of trading. More than 50% of those months I wasted time running around jumping between charts taking signals from people I never spoke to for second before in my life. Then I came across you. Life changed I took a step back I was unemployed and I always told myself if I had the time I know I would be good at this. My luck I met you Jordan just when I needed guidance and boy have you guided me. I am truly grateful to you. May God bless you and your family keep you safe and may we all encourage you keep on helping us all out here to see the bigger picture to learn to adapt to learn risk management and to have a plan or goal in life. I will forever be your #bigfan and one day soon I know I will find a job and have enough spare money to really get down to this. I started with a little bit. When I calculate all the profits I have made in the time I have been trading and came to a percentage return I am seriously amazed at what has been done for somebody like me just learning the little I have managed to grasp from you. I do wish I could have had all the profits still thou lol but as said it had to be used for the greater good. Take care Jordan enjoy your weekend #bigfan ❤️ all the love and respect from Muhammed down here in South Africa 🤗🌍 a parting message to people who come across and read this comment... YOU GOT TO OPEN YOUR EYES YOUR MIND AND YOUR HEART TO JORDAN AND THIS COMMUNITY HE HAS BUILT IN ORDER FOR YOU TO REAP THE REWARDS OF THE GOLDEN NUGGETS HIDDEN WITHIN JORDAN'S METHODS AND TECHNIQUES, FOLLOW DILIGENTLY TAKE NOTES AND ALIGN YOUR CHARTS TO HIS SO THAT YOU ARE ABLE TO SEE THROUGH HIS EYES WHAT LIES INFRONT OF YOU... BE PATIENT ASK QUESTIONS HE WILL NEVER NOT GUIDE YOU... take care all ❤️ much love 🙏

That was a very different video for you Jordan but I liked it. I felt like this is the “Jordan” that pontificates unscripted during the live broadcast and gives good life lessons. Quite authentic and real. My dad taught me investing when I was a teenager in the mid-80’s. He was more of a traditional investor, Warren Buffet style. Not that we had money, but the style where you research a company, and then send a letter to your broker in NY with a check to buy shares at current market price. Then you check the paper to see if your stock went up 1/8th of a point. Very different times then today. The point of this is to extend my appreciation to you as I’ve done in the past. My trading has evolved and my technical knowledge improved. I have dialed the number of trades I’m doing way back on your advice and I’m very happy with the outcome. I’m literally buying/selling 1-3 times/month. I know I could increase my frequency but I look at a decision not to buy just as important as to buy. I’m catching the right wave. My trades have all been in ETFs and stocks and, ironically, no FX. I admit I have much still to learn regarding this, but regardless, your principles apply to more than just FX as you know. Thanks for what you do. Your teachings are literally changing my life and the life of my kids. Take care...

[anthonycollins]

Aiming for 2-3% growth per month doesn’t sound too hard. Its really good to think that way. I have been trading for a couple of months and seen swings of +/- 50% in a week. I am back to where I was a couple of weeks ago< having almost blown my account - was down 60% but through a lot of stressful days and nights of trading more than I should I got it back. Right now, time to take stock and aim for smaller, regular gains - thanks for the videos you present each day.
