Harry D
Options Mentoring
Success Story

by Harry

I began my trading career in Jan 2008 by taking my first of several trading courses as advertised by a fairly big name trading company.

It was a very expensive program, but first rate in the information and the presentation, dvd's of all live classes, notebooks and live seminars to attend.

I attribute most of my learning of the basics of options to this program. I subsequently took an individual course offered by one of its instructors, again expensive.

In the mean time, I was struggling to build an account with which to trade with. I had paper traded for three months and was ready or so I thought.

This program and the two subsequent programs I joined all led one to believe you could be successful starting with any amount, no matter how small.

Oh how so untrue!

I was ready believe me after spending almost an accumulated $15,000 for my Option trading education!

As the result of my last course, prior to joining your coaching program, I did find a great trading partner.

We have never met face to face, but we sure did a lot of trading together, working hard to make sense of the myriad of indicators everyone said we needed to trade smart.

Even though we both had a strong knowledge of the basics, we found ourselves mired in layers of complexity, so much that we began to amass losing trades.

We actually got to where we did not know what we were looking for! I devastated my trading account, one I had built into an account just above $4,000, some through successful trades but mostly by depositing money bit by bit from my regular corporate paycheck.

I started with an amount less than $1,000. My lack of success began with the Lehman bankruptcy and it had been all down hill until I found your website (Learn-Stock-Options-Trading.com).

My trading partner had told me of you and I began to follow your Option Trading website in late 2009. I worked to employ what you taught and began to see success but needed more details.

This year you began offering a coaching program. I knew I wanted to join you and learn the details of what you felt has brought you success.

I now had the chance to learn from a down to earth guy, who was honest as the day is long, who tells it like it is and sifts out the important things and points you in the right direction.

I put my 'gut feeling' in check, trying to break old habits and let myself learn your way.

I thank you for showing me simplicity yet with the detail you need to be successful.

I have since rejoined Marketclub and have been buying an IBD paper once a week to find more stocks to put on my watchlist.

Buying once a week saves me money while I am still adding little bits to the real account to build to $3,000 before I will dare think of trading with real money again.

You really got that point across better than any trade school I have been a part of.

Your simple honesty is so REFRESHING...and best of all...it really Works!

Thanks Travis...People who want to be successful trading options and don't study your website and join your coaching program simply don't know what they are missing!

Here are the first two trades I did using the MC template...both winners!

First Trade:
Stock: TRLG
8/24 Bought 4 contracts; Oct 20 Put Options for $1.85

8/30 Sold for $2.35 (using a trailing stop of $.25 from the mark)

Profit $200
Return on Investment: + 27% (in only 5 days!!!)

Second Trade:
Stock: LULU
8/27 Bought 2 contracts; Dec 36 Put Options for $4.90

Sold for $6.60 (using a trailing stop of $.45 from the mark)

Profit: $340
Return on Investment: +35% (in only a few days!!!)

***Thoughts from Trader Travis: I really appreciated Harry sending me this story. He learned what I taught, took immediate action (speed of implementation) and achieved results.

He used the basic foundation of what I taught and adjusted a bit to suit his personality...perfect!!!

Please be sure to congratulate Harry below, it took much courage signing up for my coaching program after going through what he went through.

And if you want to be notified on when the next coaching class will take place then sign up for our free option trading newsletter.



Note from Trader Travis: This type of success is not typical and I'm supposed to tell you what typical is. Well I'm sorry to say that I have no idea what typical is because each trader is different. And with anything in life there are always people who purchase products and do nothing with them. I will however tell you that these types of returns are not unusual and I have several student emails to prove it.

Many Thanks NEW
by: Harry D.

I wanted to thank everyone for their generous kind remarks about my story! Your remarks are even more encouragement and knowing that others have gone thru the same struggle I have and are still going ahead is a real motivator.

Couple your remarks with the Honesty of Travis and his sincere efforts to simplify the trading process for those of us who have gone way beyond simple to the more complex is most refreshing for me. I am certainly developing a more relaxed view to trading and am now implementing many of the rules I had learned but chose to ignore. It is simple for me,Travis has made this work very well for him and I know I can do the same.....thru now exercising PATIENCE using a plan with rules that must be followed! I wish all of you much success!

finding honesty in todays world NEW
by: Scott

Harry,
Congradulations:
as I write this I must admit my skeptism. I too have tried a few trading classes and seminars.I always walk away feeling like I just witnessed another get rich scheme, where getting into a persons wallet is everything and real help in understand the trade is second. I have been following along with Travis' website and have been pleasantly surprised by his honesty.

Good for you, Harry NEW
by: Itzhak

I didn't spend as much as you but I learned from LSOT a lot more than all the books I have.
Furthermore, I can ask questions and get honest answers.
Keep making some good money!

Congrats! NEW
by: Tony Chai

Congrats to you, Harry. Your hard work has really paid off.

Congrats to you too, Travis. You have delivered a simple to follow options mentoring program and as testified by Harry, it's effective.

You also over delivers in your mentoring program by continuing to give us trade school lessons to help us keep track of our progress.

Yes, that makes you a very good down to earth guy who certainly has a heart to help other fellow options traders.

Keep up your good works!

You're wayyyy too Kind! NEW
by: Trader Travis

You all are way to kind and give me too much credit. I appreciate it though. Not to sound religious, but honestly God gets all the credit as he gives me all my ideas and nudges me to follow certain paths.

Besides that you are the ones who are doing all the hard work. I am merely teaching what I know. You are the one who have to "do it" and break the old habits.

I am getting as much out of this as you as I am over joyed and seeing you all learn quicker than I did.

I can't wait until we all go on our celebration cruise!

That a boy Harry! NEW
by: roger

Way to break through resistance Harry!!! I too spent tens of thousands of dollars trying to find my way through the maze and confusion of trading only to get more confused. The indicators,the greeks, the media, the "suck a bucks" that promise you the way to riches but dont turn the light on so you can find the path. Of course you find out they didnt know where the switch was either! I too was so frustrated I almost quit trying but my desire to retire early and help my church and family kept me on the path. Enter Travis-the flashlight in the darkness! In 2 months LSOT and Travis taught me something we all thought but never trusted...It don't have to be pretty to be effective! Nothing fancy, no big extensive software to learn, no wheelbarrow of disk to watch... simply a layman's interpretation of the basics , a list of do's and dont's and a mentorship/friendship that will last forever. For less than the tax I pd for just one of those get rich quick trade shows! He taught me I wasnt too old to be successful. Hats off to you Harry for staying the course..it only gets better from here. Lets all join in and help Travis build a dynasty all of us can prosper from. Harry trade on my friend. Take care and stay in touch. Travis not enough adjectives for you my brother! Thanks!

You Confirm What I've Been Feeling! NEW
by: Tami

Thank you for sharing the TRUTH! I was also being rigorously courted by one of the big name investment teaching companies. The $6-$10K asking price in addition to the hard sell made me so leery. (A little check of their file with the Better Business Bureau didn't help either) I found Trader Travis out of frustration and could not seem to explain why I instantly felt that he was, and is, the real deal! Your story confirms that complicated, expensive, confusing information helps no one. The truth is that if you follow Travis' detailed, clear, simple instructions and get your ego out of the way success is possible.
Blessings to you and your continuing success!

Congratulations & Thank You Harry! NEW
by: Angela

Thank you for sharing your story Harry. I have always been interested in the stock market, but never seriously thought about trading options because I thought it was too complicated. Although I am a detailed person, I can easily get overwhelmed with too much information and become frustrated. When I found Travis' website, it was the first time I thought that maybe I could learn to trade options and be successful at it. He explains things clearly, in a way that is easy to understand. One point that hit home with me is the importance of deciding when to exit a trade before you enter into it--take the emotion out it because it's easy to get caught up in thinking a stock is doing well and how much more money you could make if you stayed with it a little longer...
I wish you lots of success in your trading career.

Harry,

I am so happy to hear your story and am thankful you are willing to share! It is very encouraging for me as I am just entering the world of trading and looking forward to being a student of Travis' because of the "simplicity" that he brings to options trading. "Keep on Keeping on!"

Congrats and Thanks! NEW
by: Larry

Harry, I think your story can give an insight into why some have success and others not in options trading. You mention "mired in layers of complexity". Today there is so much information available that one can easily get overwhelmed and "analysis paralysis" sets in and we give up. Harry's persistence and LSOT with Travis proves that a few guidelines can be the road to success. Thanks to Harry and Travis for sharing.
