Season Greetings and End of the Trading Year Thoughts
by Master Trader Joe Ross
Author, Trader, Trading Mentor, and Founder of Trading Educators, Inc.
Dear friends,
I keep wondering where 2016 went and now we are looking at 2017. 2016 just flew by, but lots of things happened. We finished the development of our new website. We introduced some new products, and we received lot of messages from you about your trading successes.
For me the milestone has been the continued success of our Instant Income Guaranteed program. We are now over 3 years without a losing trade. Do you know of anyone else who can say that?
As for 2017, we are expecting much turmoil and wild volatility in virtually all markets. We are living in interesting times. We are making every effort to be able to guide you safely through what we see ahead.
Today, as I write this, I personally begin my time away from the markets. It has been a lifelong habit to stay away from mid December until the end of the first week in January. The markets can be pretty crazy in the latter days of the year that will end, and the first days of the year that is coming. As a company, we take time to be grateful for what we have, and to think, plan, and just relax. It’s amazing how getting away can make things more clear.
However, this is the time of the year when I want you to know that we are thinking about you and how we can better serve. And please do let us know what you would like to see on our website. Hearing from you in addition to making what we offer, whether free or for a price, is the only way we can truly stay connected.
At Trading Educators we are very much aware that our main purpose is creating new value. That keep us busy evaluating and improving what we do and gives us the impetus to come up with something new.
We truly hope you will do the same in your own lives. Stop taking any new trades, carefully monitor what you already have and get as far away from the business of trading as you possibly can, until we are a week into 2017.
We wish you a wonderful holiday season. Have many happy days between now and the end of the year and then beyond as we sail into 2017.
All the best all the time,
JR

Christmas Time is Here
by Professional Trader Andy Jordan

Editor of Traders Notebook Complete and Traders Notebook Outrights
As always during the last days of the year, I like to look back to see what happened in 2016 and what changes I would like to make for the next year.
While 2015 was not very productive, 2016 was much better and positive in all 3 different categories: Spread Trading, Options Trading, and Outright Futures Trading. Especially spread trading which was doing great in 2016 after not doing so well in 2015. Options trading was very slow this year and we had only a few trades in 2016, but finished the year positive almost at equity highs! And our new Outright Trading Service that started the end of July is already showing nice numbers.
Honestly, if I can stay on this track in 2017, I will be happy! OK, I’d like to get a few more options trades and maybe a few more spread trades, but all in all I’d be happy to repeat the results in 2017.
I am wishing all of you a great Christmas time, hopefully with your family and friends. I will shut down my trading office for a week and will be back on the 2nd to check the markets.
Merry Christmas,
Andy Jordan

Enjoy the Holidays

Dear Traders,
I'd like to thank all of you for a great year 2016! I really enjoyed being in exchange with many of you on a regular basis.
I'll spend the next two weeks with my family and friends, with my mind far away from the markets. That's what I strongly suggest to do during these days of low liquidity. Just do what everyone else does and relax during this time. It's often the only two weeks of the year where I'm really 100% away from the markets as I usually keep on trading my systems during vacations if somehow possible. So I'm always looking forward to that XMAS break also knowing how eager I'll be to resume trading after a two weeks break. Just love that feeling to start into a new year with a clean slate, especially as my trading results have been somewhat mixed in 2016.
So I'd like to wish all of you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2017. Enjoy the holidays with your family and friends, and I'm looking forward to a great trading year 2017 with you!
Happy Trading!
