Discover the impact genuine guidance makes to someone's trading

How long do you believe it takes someone to reach the trading level shown below?

Shown are trades from 3 consecutive days of trading.

To help answer the question:

First is learning to spot relative-value shifts, differentiate between speculators and commercial positioning, and know how to play the game - to see opportunities most people overlook. 

You can think of this as intellectual property underpinning a successful trading business. 

Next is the performance aspect of trading. 

Like riding a bike, understanding what you're supposed to do is only a tiny part of the equation. 

Identifying up to 10 points of evidence in real-time - while timing trades to minimise how much the market takes and maximising how much you take out of the market - takes practice. 

Because at the start - whether it's riding a bike or trading - everyone is awful. Right?

But instead of you facing the daunting prospect of deciphering what mistakes you're making, how to improve, and what areas to focus on - all while not knowing what you don't know...

And even though further skill improvement is necessary - reaching the above level of trading proficiency took 6 months. 

So if professional trading firms clarify to recruits - "Don't expect consistent profitability in your first nine months"...

How can someone achieve the above expertise in a comparatively short period? 

Answer: Ongoing feedback. And that's the secret sauce in trader mentoring. 

Below you can see the feedback accompanying the trading.

The notes are blurred to protect the intellectual property. 

Imagine receiving individual feedback and guidance unique to your trading for 9-12 months.

Provided you follow the guidance, it's fair to say you'd see your performance dramatically improve. Correct?

Intuitively, everyone knows you need quality guidance and mentoring to develop successful trading. But the problem is not knowing what type of instruction is effective versus what's simply a waste of your money. Agree?

A mentor in a true sense, teaches someone how to trade professionally using proven industry methods.

They also demonstrate how to trade professionally in a real-life trading environment because practical 'in-the-field' learning is a proven approach across numerous fields, not just trading.

However, the vital piece that develops your trading performance is the ongoing assessment, individual feedback and individual guidance on your progress success.

And critically - it continues for sufficient time - a minimum of nine months - because that's how long it takes.

When you compare five people's performance who all have the same training you'll see five different sets of results.

But that doesn't mean you can't be the best version of yourself if you are serious about trading. Right? And that's all that matters.

And why does it matter?
As Fyodor Dostoyevsky - considered one of the greatest intellectual minds of his era - puts it:

"Deprived of meaningful work, men and women lose their reason for existence; they go stark, raving mad."

It's why people choose to endure a 9-12 month professional trading mentoring program.
