Im a member of the BIAS group, really really enjoying not worrying about positions held overnight. Bruce’s strategy simply rocks! The market has not been easy to navigate and I truly am impressed how Bruce handles it! I count myself fortunate to have ‘discovered’ this group. Im not going to get rich here, but i believe i can enhance my income with assurance that tomorrow will be a day like most days, only a little better. Sincerely, Jay

I’m joining the option trading room. However, I would like to have a filter by author’s alert, so I only need to read the alert message from my favorite author.

I think your program is pretty good but sometimes I feel like we are left to wonder for too long how losing trades are going to be handled before advice comes out to exit the trade. I have stopper following your program to take a breather as I seemed to be losing on more trades than winning. Some of John’s recommendation seemed too risky for me particularly on Tesla so I did not make those trades It would be helpful if John communicated more frequently So that we are not left guessing what the next step will be on some trades. I like John’s style but more frequent short statements from Jim would be helpful. I am a small account trader. Thanks Jim

The traders working at Simpler Trading (ST) are very diverse in their option strategy and trading approach. Any would-be or expert trader should be able to find one or more that is a match to their trade strategy and follow any one or more of the ST traders. ST emphasizes in option trading with a second area of futures trading. Emphasis is placed on selling to members: classes, indicators and services, so costs can get out of hand fairly quickly for a beginner not knowing where to begin, until the beginner finds the one ST trader who they can follow. Once comfortable and settled in with the ST trader they find most conducive, the member trader should earn a steady profit over time. As far as the non-employee traders (class members) they can be very helpful, though some may be impatient for the beginner, BUT ST has a great class room just for beginners that is much more friendly where questions are more easily asked and answered. There is guidance on small accounts and large accounts. Also there is a 'library' of videos detailing dozens of different option terms and strategies. ST have many videos on YouTube, too. Having a Thinkorswim account if nothing more than for the charting is a good basic approach. Trading on Thinkorswim, TradeStation, and/or TastyWorks are favorites of ST traders. Almost all ST indicators work on Thinkorswim and TradeStation.

Things look good! I joined to build my small account and I like what I am seeing. My account is up 20%in the first three weeks and that is amazing for me! Looking forward to these "real" traders. No Nonsense here, totally professional.

I've done a lot, lot, LOT of courses and monthly subscriptions off and on with Simpler Trading for over about 7 years. They trade real money and give trades and advice in real time that are actionable. They have solid trade set-ups and really know their stuff. They are straight forward and honest, mostly. They have been MUCH better these days about also talking about their losing trades, where before they mainly touted winners and swept losers under the carpet and often were not giving advice on how to get out of or even comment on losing trades. My reason for 4 stars instead of 5 stars is that they are EXTREMELY advanced and can be VERY hard to follow, even for the most seasoned traders. They only usually speak to the most advanced traders in live rooms and often in courses. They (most of the trade instructors) throw a ton of advanced trading terms and concepts around and expect ALL to know what they are saying. They are absolutely NOT for beginners. Even their beginner course has been unsuccessful for those I have sent to it, being too difficult. I've discussed this problem of too advanced of gradients with them many times and they have improved, but the trading rooms and most of the courses are still don't fully explain concepts/indicators used but assume "everyone knows". The trade instructors I did find that are better at conveying their techniques in a way that communicates in a more "for everyone" user-friendly way in their classes and in their chat rooms are Carolyn and Bruce. Another area to be aware of it that they have a new course ever few weeks that is the "best yet" and it is hard to stay focused and easy to buy many courses. They are terrific marketers and do have some seriously big wins with some of their trades to entice you with that are real (but not all of course). One is compelled to buy and the good 'ol "fear of missing out" can lead one to buy many courses and not stay focused. It's easy to get distracted with latest greatest. The various people I've sent over the years also have commented this to me also. I've sent a number of people to the company (and wanted to send so many more) but ALL have fallen off because of these above 2 points. Mainly, they just can't follow what is being said in trading rooms and even in the courses, so much knowledge is expected even for a beginner. These are some pretty smart individuals I've sent. But sadly, none have stuck. Despite my frustrations, overall Simpler is the real deal, and do have good trading techniques if you are disciplined to wade through the difficult learning curve. Understand that it will be much more time consuming than you probably think up front. As noted, I definitely do not recommend them for beginners and even most intermediate traders. You need to know a good amount options concepts or you will get lost. I would give them 2 or 3 stars because of the difficulties of not speaking to all of the audience, but to only the most advanced customers and the constant marketing of new things. However, I like them very much because they have excellent customer service and are honest traders passing on their knowledge and trades.

Overall, I like simpler trading. There support staff is excellent. The only problem that I have regards indicators. They are very expensive without a trial period. For my trading, I have found that they were not as useful as they were in the presentation. Recently, I purchased an indicator from tradestation for $149 and it is the best indicator that I have ever used. It had a thirty day trial period so I did not hesitate to purchase it. It rates every candle from 1 to 10 with 10 being the strongest. It also shows a pullback. One can also insert the indicator into radar screen. and sort from weakest to strongest. It also shows the candle when a stock entered either a downtrend or uptrend as well as the number of candles that it has been in the trend.

I have been a Simpler Trading member for a few years. Before that, my tradings were like hit and run lucky draws with no tools, method, plan and strategies. After learning so much from all those in Simpler Trading especially John, Henry and Bruce, I could now trade stocks and options with confidence and much consistent results. I cannot say enough to give my heartfelt appreciation to all those great traders in Simpler Trading whom have made such a great impact to the way I trade.
