I’m a fairly experienced trader with a background in stocks, currencies, and futures. I’ve worked with coaches in each field, and Tim’s one of only two people I’d recommend. He does a great job separating performance issues from strategy issues, and then works on measurable improvements in both through specific, concrete actions. I highly recommend working with him.
Tim and the great content he has created on Eminimind has been an enormous help to my trading career. I have been trading full time now for about a year and a half. When I found Tim’s site, joined his live streams, and went all in on learning his very simplified trading system, my own trading of the /ES has improved and is finally consistent. Now I have a trading system I am confident will work for a long and successful career, if I am able to keep my discipline and mindset consistent as well. Tim’s weekly emails are a big help in getting my mental side of this equation to place it needs to be.”
I really want to thank you again for mentoring me last year. The results have been incredible ever since, this year is the most profitable and consistent I have ever been. What really excelled me is taking your strategies and then molding them in a way that fits my trading style. Without your help I wouldn’t be where I am now.

Overleveraging, trading with “scared money” is not sustainable and will cause you to lose your money faster than playing the craps tables in Vegas. Entrepreneurs like Thomas Edison, Donald Trump and Steve Jobs will often say fail fast and fail often, I’d like to add that in trading, you must fail small.
Trading with the NYSE tick can lead to increased efficiency in your entry’s and exits. While it is most commonly used for intraday trading, it is possible to trade larger timeframes. The NYSE tick is only available during regular trading hours of 9:30 AM EST – 4:00 PM EST as the data is derived from the New York Stock Exchange.
Trading losses can end a career in a matter of a day, and hour, or in extreme circumstances even a few minutes. Here I outline some of the ways I have dealt with losses in the past and how I got over the hump.
If you have $10,000 to put towards your trading account, don’t waste your time. As a matter of fact if you have $15,000 or even $25,000 in your trading account, don’t waste your time. That is, don’t waste your time with careless mistakes because every trade counts.
