You don’t have logs of how many trades you make and the results . You should have someone Or a group to identify day trades set ups and at least call them on the Room . You have to many people making analysis

need a "set it and forget it" setup
I have been a subscriber to Simpler Trading, and even John's and some of the team's services before that (ie, TTM), for almost 10 years. I love everything you guys do. There's just one hole that I wish you could fill. Teach how to trade when you can't look at the markets during trading hours at all ... there's got to be somebody who's figured out a strategy that works for doing research in the evening, then placing limit orders to be executed the next day. Even in these days of smart phones, apps, text alerts, etc., some of us are stuck in jobs or other situations that just do not let you be available to make a trade when you need to. Some of your traders in the past have had "set it and forget it" trade setups. I would like to see more of that. And maybe just some more education on how to determine when to make then jump from working a full time job plus trading, to trading full time. Like, maybe some sort of service, counseling/coaching, etc., that caters specifically to people who trade while working full time but for the intention of eventually trading full time.

My Trading Journey with Simpler Trading
Before Simpler, I was trading using a system that incorporated green, yellow, and red lights to make entry and exit decisions. It did not work well and taught me little, if anything; I lost a lot of money.
My older sister told me about an article she read about some guy by the name of John Carter. Frustrated, I “googled” him and found Simpler Trading. I joined and have not looked back.
I describe Simpler Trading to others who ask me about the company in the following ways:
1. Educational. The intent at Simpler is to educate you. Yes, you can limit yourself to just placing the trades each presenter covers, but they really are intent on providing you with how the market works and how to apply the available tools in order to make you independent.
2. Fair and Balanced. I stole that from a national news outlet, but it applies to Simpler as well. Their customer service is excellent, and they are always fair in solving issues or accommodating reasonable requests. The company provides a variety of presenters, each with a style of their own. You are not locked into any one style of trading, but instead can mix and match the concepts each person presents in order to build a balanced program of your own, leading to your own success.
3. Your Profits Mirror Your Investment. Simpler is always rolling out a new educational program or tool in order to improve your trading. Over the years, I have purchased what made sense to me and have used the information to become a better trader.
I honestly attribute my trading success to Simpler Trading. I am now more than capable of assessing trade opportunities without them but can’t imagine missing out on the various chat rooms and commentators as I trade the market each morning. When he started Simpler Trading, John Carter started something special.

Great Staff
The staff at ST are all very knowledgeable and explain things quite well.
It is hard to get filled on JC's trades at his price because it moves very fast after he makes the trade. So I rarely get the same fill as he does. It would be nice if he were in the Options trading room more often as he is the best.Everyone else is good too, but JC kicks butt. Carolyn is great but hard for me to understand her methods.

Simpler Trading's Support Team
Simpler Trading's - Genavia and Duncan are the most helpful product support team members. They know their stuff and goes out of their way to help people until the products are installed properly before a session starts
This help is invaluable for trading, as a client then I can focus on how to use the tools/ indicators in the learning sessions.
Thanks for all the support.

The Trading Room(s) Emeritus
As a gold member of the simpler options trading room (since JC partnered with Hubert Senters) I have continually been impressed with the growth and improvement of their original platform of services, which has greatly expanded to include new traders in the room as well as new rooms. A veritable faculty of mentors, all of whom are friendly, responsive, and about as caring as a member could possibly expect.

Great people. More indicators that I would like.
I've been with Simpler since 2017. I like the team's openness and willingness to teach. I've learnt a lot, but still not enough to be consistently profitable in my trades. I feel that I've lost time and money with too many different indicators and tools that at the end of the day make a marginal difference without the years of trading experience and market knowledge.
