Pristine Method® Trading Room
Hi Avery,
I want to say thanks for your leadership and teaching in the PMTR. You are doing a great job. It's funny; you'd think this stuff would sink in, yet everyday, when I get a chance to listen to you, it seems like I learn new stuff. Some is repetitive and the basic material is similar to things you've said before. Yet, when you discuss it in relation to individual stock chart patterns, it seems to have more relevance and I learn something new. I have found that I am getting better at recognizing patterns all the time. Now if I can just get my plan right, and develop the discipline and consistency to follow it, maybe I'll begin making money.
Anyway, thanks Avery for all your help.

I've been in the room with you for the last month and I gotta tell you, you've helped me overcome some real issues I've been struggling with for years. The primary issue has been playing early and playing gaps for the big gains that come early. Hit several milestones this week.
Highest intra day gains ever in 5 years of trading came yesterday and today (over a dollar each day). Had gains of over .40 in the first 20 minutes at least once each day this week; another first. You've also helped me look at gaps in a different way by explaining the psychology. You got me trading much earlier and more aggressively, successfully. Two months ago, I had never scanned pre-open gaps. Now it is my primary pre-market activity.
My overall average daily gain has gone from .10 or less to the mid .30’s in just 2 weeks and that is trending higher as I get more comfortable with the open and find higher quality setups via TPM1. Average daily loss is around .05 - .10. The average gain is clearly because of overcoming the fear of playing the open. My goal is to be done trading by mid day, and you have brought me much closer to that goal. I took TPM 1 last month, and look forward to taking your gap class later this year in a combo package with TPM 2, if available.
Thanks again.
Sincerely,
Walt K.
Avery,
I do not know how you do it all day. Day after day with all that energy. I have only been in the PMTR for a couple weeks and I have to say, thanks! I'm looking forward to your Gap Seminar. I have the Manual and I will go through about half of it tonight.
I have been trading since 1998 and I haven't put things together until I took the TMP1 and TMP2. I am signed up for the Masters Program. I am an old guy (55) and I have two jobs (full time). The one where I am tonight, I want to retire from and trade for a living. I am so close with the right tools and Organization. All I need is more practice and experience. You guys have it all. Nobody teaches this stuff like you guys do.
Thanks for being there and see you in the PMTR on Monday.

I just wanted to give you a quick note of thanks. Your lectures and emphasis on a written trading plan (to save me from the idiot within), have proven invaluable and will most likely prove to be the turning point in my trading career. I've already seen a vast difference this week in controlling the internal conflicts when in a trade.
Thanks for all your work in the room and have a great weekend.

I joined Pristine’s Educational Trading Room late last year but have just recently begun an attempt at trading full time. I actually was in your room for about 2 months back in 2001. I had 6 weeks off work then. Of course back then I thought that would be ample time to master everything there was to know! While obviously it didn't work out as I expected, it was a great learning experience and I always knew I would give it another try. This time I have 6 months off work and more financial resources behind me.
I feel like a light bulb has gone off in the last couple of weeks. I am starting to get the big picture. Not sure but (insert sarcasm here) it might have something to do with taking Trading The Pristine Method – Part I and your DVDs! They were both great. I would highly recommend others doing the Home Study Version of TPM I a few weeks later after the live course. I have had a written plan now for a few weeks (still evolving daily) and I am getting close to sticking to it 100% of the time (I know, I know "Just do it".) By the way I lectured myself for trading Monday (after TPM1) and purposely did not trade on Tuesday. That turned out to be very enlightening. Not just because I could focus completely on learning but it was very empowering knowing that I could actually go a whole day without trading. I was a little disappointed to learn that you can't make money when you don't trade but I learned you can't lose it either! (More sarcasm.)
Anyway what I really wanted to do was to thank you for your daily guidance. I get so much from the room. All the necessary tools are there for the taking for anyone who puts an effort into it. I also realize we should not be in the room just to be "entertained" (you touched on this a couple days ago). However the room does provide social interaction. This is important to me and I suspect to others who come from a "regular" job and are used to being around people during the day. That is my roundabout way of saying I enjoy your sense of humor and the general atmosphere of the room. I can't imagine not having the room to take part in even once I am a "Master Trader".

I have been listening today to a future trading room promoted by a certain broker - they are down 5 es points while I am up 60 ym points - boy am I ever grateful for Pristine.
Larry D.
Bobbi and I have been
really impressed with the quality of training that we
have received at Pristine and also the high level of
competency from all of the people that we encountered
at Pristine. We have also marveled at the level of hard
work that all of you put into the training of us newbies
and the other people in the training room. You all seem
to put in countless hours into the effort of trading.
So this has inspired us to work hard too. It takes an
unbelievable amount of time to become a trader, we have
found, and you at Pristine do it with cheerfulness and
a great deal of patience.
Best regards
Don S.
Avery,
I really appreciate the great
job you do in the PMTR,
you both put a lot into it and provide a tremendous
value for the active trader. I've been "in the zone" since
taking TPM
II last year. For January I put up a
6:1 win loss ratio with the average gain three times
larger then the average loss. These are the best
numbers I've ever put up and I owe it to Pristine
and some persistent work on my part. So far I've
only had one losing day this year. Achieving that
level of consistency didn't come over night and I
don't think I would have ever done that without keeping
good records of every trade.
Thanks,
Larry S.
Just
a note to let you know how much I appreciate you running
the room... Been in here for a year
+ (this time) and I know I have said it before
but... your consistent approach of teaching the
Pristine
Method® is really appreciated and
your lectures have been instrumental in helping me
reach the level that I am at now. I learn more
each day that I am in the room. Just read the
trading
lesson of the week. When I
was reading the article I
suddenly realized that I understood the concepts without
re-reading and examining the charts ( finally starting
to get it). I truly understand and
see the set ups in advance now. I know
that I am on the right path to my goals. I hope
someday I can repay you in some way.
Thank You, Tony S.
I trust you and yours are well and happy.
I just wanted to say how right you are in extolling the
virtues of the Trading
Room, as you did when we first met in Toronto.
I'm feeling gradually more confident, although I've
got a very long way to go. But the Room is imperative
to anyone serious who wants to get good at this stuff:
an extension course, and an ongoing class. Too right
Bruce!
Enjoy the
day,
Tom
F.
Forever grateful. Without you I would still be mourning
my losses in 2000, 2201 2002. You have truly helped
me to regain financial security in my retirement.
Thanks again for sharing your brain power.
August T.
Thanks so much... This is my 2nd "official"
week with Pristine after finishing Trading
the Pristine Method® Part 1. Last week I
just missed my weekly goal by a small amount and this
week I made it with a day and a half to spare.... For
me that's a real accomplishment.
I can not say enough about the professionalism and discipline
that you display in the chat room, it
is such a change from what I was used to at [ former
service ]. I just wish that I had found Pristine long
ago before the "bump".
I know I still have much to re-learn and many old habits
to break and prepared to put in the work to make that
happen. But I know that with help from Pristine and
"class" people like you (and of course
others that I have yet to meet), I have made the right
choice.
Thanks
so much again... Reed D.
I
took the The Trading the Pristine
Method® Part I course in Irvine on November
9 & 10. I have been in the chat room this week as
a free trial member. I am very impressed with your capability
and style as a trader/instructor and appreciate your
sense of humor. I will be signing up for the Pristine
Method® Room on Monday...

Let
me start by saying how much I have enjoyed your trading
room. When learning to fly, its always nice to have
the flight instructor sitting next to you - fewer crash
landings that way. Your picks have been right more often
than not and your concern for not letting us get to
extended risk wise is very comforting. The concern seems
genuine, thank you.
Todd

I
wanted to thank you for your efforts in the trading
room. A week or so ago, I tried the free trial on the
final Friday and played PALM (one of your suggestions
late in the day) which worked wonderfully. I was excited
by the luxury of having extra eyes searching for setups
that I wouldn't find or would just miss (like PALM,
which I would have never spotted). That was enough to
get me to subscribe, but I was happily surprised to
find that the real benefit of this room is seeing your
discipline in action. I've been trading full time for
almost a year and have been exposed to several great
traders, but I've never witnessed the kind of discipline
you display. It is very refreshing to see.
Robert D.
I
am amazed at your trading, and teaching abilities. I
think the measure is how relaxed you stay as you move
in and out of difficult situations so even tempered.
I've been in the Pristine
Method® Trading Room for two months, very
very grateful to be a student here and learning the
basics. I took the three day Simple
Art of Trading® seminar in March and continue
to study all the materials.
Gary
I
have been in the RTR for almost one month now. I feel
myself getting better every day and lots of it has to
do with what I have learned from you guys. So I must
thank you for that. I am not afraid to tell you that
I have looked at all the chat rooms out there. You guys
are by far the best.
Jaime, New York
Wow!
So
far, I love your new 'real-time trading room'. For someone
like me, a market 'newbie', looking over the shoulder
of experienced traders is VERY educational. To this
point, I have just a basic, basic framework of knowledge,
but it looks as if this framework is going to be augmented
greatly by this new service.
This
is fun - you've got a 'win-win' winner on your hands,
I'm sure.
