Testimonials
Brian,
FWIW I think your videos and what you do are the best that I have encountered. I think for a lot of people might want more “tell me what to do” from you, please resist….though I have to learn how to really optimally benefit, I’ve never found any “do this” approach to work for me (or my friends), so your showing us what and why you think what you do is almost like sitting by your side and “mentoring”.

Dear Brian,
I just wanted to thank you for the wealth of knowledge that you have shared with me and many others on your website(s) over the past five years. I purchased your book many years ago and began a journey of trading while in the middle of my dental school program when I was in my early 20s. Thanks to you I have done extremely well in the market over the past 5 years, although I have turned into more of a scalp trader than anything else during this time. I was able to graduate in 2008 basically debt free because of early trades I would place in the mornings based on your trend alignment methods that I incorporated in my trading arsenal. Maybe the most important part of what you have done for me is your trading methods have allowed me to teach my older brother who made a lot of wrong turns in his life early on into a good trader, which has really turned his life around completely. I can’t say enough about what you’ve done in my life and hope nothing but the best for you and your family. Hope we run into each other one day, so I can thank you personally.
Thank you again

Hey Brian,
I say thank you enough times to express my gratitude for all your hard work. I started following you about 2 yrs ago. I thought I knew what I was doing during 06 and into 07, but then got the reality check of a lifetime. Several accounts later and many hard lessons learned I can honestly say I have turned the corner in my trading career and I owe you a huge debt of gratitude. I appreciate your hard work and only hope the stress of “trying to keep everyone happy” wont become overwhelming. I live in orange county, ca not to far from LA. If you need anything while you are here do not hesitate to call or e-mail.
Thanks Again,
Jeff
Brian,
Your recommendations are fantastic, but most of all I love your compassion. It shows through when you are speaking about the subject that you care about . . . so thanks and continued success.

Hi Brian,
This email is going to sound like one of those testimonials on an infomercial but seriously since I started watching your videos I can see that my trading skills have gotten better. I approach the trade now with more confidence using the skills I learnt from you combined with my intuitive sense and the outcome in much more successful. Maybe as a female I tend to lean too much of the intuitive side…but that way alone was not always working. By watching your videos I now incorporate solid skills. I tend to keep my trades small, properly smaller than they need to be [or maybe it is an age thing, who knows?], but in time I will further develop the confidence and learn which markets to be more aggressive in. One last thing, from viewing your Sunday night videos for a few months now I can see that your teaching skills are developing nicely. I think your second call in life is to be a teacher.
Thank you,
Danielle
I have found your suggestions, trade set-ups money management suggestions to be excellent guides for those that want to make it their own. The quality of the video, ease of access and supporting twitter really great. I plan on subscribing for the long-term and I have learned a ton from just absorbing your fast, effective and indicator lean approach. Price rules.
Best Regards,
Dave
Hi Brian,
Just to a note to say thank you for all of the great coaching I’ve received from you over the past couple of years. Buying your book is the first step in understanding your methodology, but I must declare that everyone must also become a subscriber to your StockTwits service. Why you may ask? Because even after two years of following you I still learn something new everyday that helps me become a better trader. And of the the things I have learned from you, and you repeat them, it engrains those concepts into my mind further because repetition is the mother of skill (so I NEVER get tired of anything you repeat so keep repeating). Just the simple phrase you said the other day when the market was gapping up “don’t let your emotions rule your trading” was enough reinforcement for me not to make impulisive trades which paid for your service on a yearly basis alone I.e. I look at the money I did NOT lose that paid for your service not the money I made. I am learning so much more from your service than just the book or your nightly market analysis that I wanted to let other people know (well not really because your part of my edge that I see others on StockTwits not getting).
Anyone can pick up a book and put indicators on a chart and attempt trade, but it is having a true professional like yourself on your side as a 1. Methodology coach 2. Discipline coach and 3. Risk Management coach that will take your trading to the next level. Case in point, I can’t tell you how many times have I looked at MOS and wanted to short it (deteriorating fundies) and it keeps going up in a solid stage 4 uptrend! Well, your 1. Methodology says NO to the short side 2. your Discipline says NO because part of discipline is sticking to your methodology and 3. If I did take a short your Risk Management would keep it to a small loss and let me know when the trend is telling me I am wrong. I am now starting to find my own trades via your methods and I am buliding my confidence every day. But even as I think I’d like to go it alone I now know that EVERY trader needs some sort of coach to keep them on track because it’s just way too easy to start shorting the MOS of the world.
This morning the unemployment rate went rocketing up and the market is gapping up big and as I read the StockTwits of people who are saying “how can that be” I am reminded that I am becoming a professional like you and looking at them like a parent looks at a child when they just don’t get it I.e. they just don’t understand how markets work by price structure and how to be objective. Anyway I digress. Thanks again and keep up the great work!
Regards,
Tom
Brian,
Just wanted to say thanks for all your advice – I am becoming a much more disciplined trader day by day, taking less risk and using less emotion as I go about trades. Your focus and trading strategy is helping me immensely…Your new service is well worth it and I will continue to stay a subscriber as long as you continue to offer it.
Thanks again,
Gene
Brian,
I waited months before finally rejoining your website as a paid visitor. Well worth the $59/month. I stuck with ISRG even though you didn’t mention it in again in your video last night. Sold a few minutes after the open and paid for the next 3 years of subscription. Having just rejoined, I’m not sure if you review your previous A-list recommendations but that would be comforting if you would. Either way, great pick and thanks.

Hi Brian,
I bought your book a number of months ago and it clarified so much. I have now joined your service this past week and again I’m getting a terrific education. I’ve been trading for about 7 years and feel that I have finally a resource that is pulling it all together for me.
Thanks so much!
Jim
Brian, Thanks for your opinion. Also, just wanted to drop a quick note and let you know you’re doing some great analysis and I really enjoy the videos. Actually, I find the educational videos and tools (Level 2 video and fib spreadsheet) you provide to be very insightful. Keep up the great work!
Have a great weekend,
Patrick
Just an FYI, I originally found you on YouTube then followed you for weeks as you nailed last years crash the whole way down. Then I bought your book, and learned a lot. (Since then I’ve read several much more wordy books that took exponentially longer to get only some of the same points that you taught me more.) I don’t know too much about promotion and advertising, but I wanted to tell you how I found you.
Anyways, I’ll see you on Twitter & StockTwits. Have a good one.

Brian,
I do like the addition of the charts for the “watch stocks”. didn’t think it mattered at first, but does feel better organized & aestetically better. also wanted to let you know that imo your service really is premium and the daily analysis videos alone are worth the 500$. i tried another guy’s service on stocktwits for a month (more of a stock picker) & I can say there’s NO comparison, at least for me. as a brand new trader i am learning how to trade smart thanks to you, you’re a great teacher. the educational aspects are really a great help – level 2, vwap, etc. my up days have started to outnumber my down days, and trust me that’s progress
keep bringin it!

Brian,
I just wanted to thank you for your service. I think it has been a big improvement since you left Utube and you are now spending more time on the markets, with Mid day recaps as well as individual stocks. As I am often on the road traveling I can easily catch up with the mid day reports, and using seeking Alpha. SRS was a great call today. I am still up 30% YTD since using your service.
Take care,
Matt

Good Morning Brian,
I just wanted to let you know that I am a Financial Advisor and have been following you for 3 years now. I am not an active trader, in fact I have never done a day trade. So why would a long term investor follow you? I have learned a lot from watching and listening to you over the years. As I learn I am taking my observation to my clients and making sure that they are looking at the right time frame when choosing to make an investment. Your service has been helpful to me in this way.
PS. I follow the SPY more then QQQQ, and I think you are doing a fine job covering both markets.
Sincerely
Tim R

Brian,
I like to thank you for your site and the book. I’ve had a really spotty background trading, but since I joined, I’ve learned
a tremendous amount and my trades are doing much better than they did before. Just a note to say that I really appreciate
the attention to detail you put in the site. Someday, I’ll daytrade with you all (doing the investor approach outlined in the book).
Regards,
Colin

HI Brian-
I want to thank you for your hard work and the wonderful education. I have read your book (excellent stuff) and have been a subscriber from the beginning. I just can’t thank you enough for the coaching.
Although I can’t follow market everyday, I avidly follow all your updates (and most tweets) in my effort to understand the thinking & trading process of a great trader/teacher.
Many thanks from a grateful subscriber,
Pat C

Brian,
I’ve followed you for a couple of years now, and subscribed tonight. I read your book last year. I made the decision to subscribe last Spring, but knew I wouldn’t have the bandwidth to pay attention over the summer. I do subscribe to your Tweets, and was able to personalize a few of your ideas to the extent that, well, the subscription was paid for by your freebies.
Thanks. I look forward to more successful trading with better advance information.
Dan

Hey Brian.
So I only have about 2 hours to trade this morning—
In the first hour, so far, using your stock list recommendations I’ve made:
+ $282 in DNDN (on your list)
+ $381 in another stock on your list
+ $180 in yet another stock on your list
+ $202 (and holding) on a second round in DNDN
Total +$1045 in the first hour of one day, and that’s still from trading relatively light share size overall.
Just in case anyone wonders whether $59.99/month for your subscription is worth it…
Thanks for all your hard work!!
Shaun

Thanks Brian,
Wanted to let you know you are doing an awesome job and my trading has improved dramatically since I have become a subscriber! I was about to call it quits just before I started subscribing to your service, now I think I may be able to make trading a career, thanks to you. Using the stocktwits desktop is a great supplement to what I am learning from you

Brian,
I’ve been a subscriber for a while now and have to say today’s market call was fantastic! It’s one thing to have an idea about the market but quite another to have the balls to post it for the world to see! Anyway, even though I took profits a little too soon today it was still a very nice day. Over the last several months I’ve been doing more watching and learning than actual trading. However I’m beginning to gain confidence and looking forward to putting more money to work using your strategies.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge of the markets. The information is priceless!
Take care,
Richard G
