Thank you for the kind words and for sharing your experience with Diamonds.
One of the things that stands out most about Alex is exactly what you mentioned — his positive attitude and genuine commitment to helping the group navigate the markets responsibly. He works incredibly hard not only to identify opportunities, but also to focus on risk management and protecting capital during difficult market conditions.
We’re also grateful to hear that the experience has been profitable for you. Our entire goal is to create an environment where traders can continue learning, growing in confidence, and approaching the market with a more structured mindset.
Thank you again for your trust and for being part of the community. We truly appreciate your support.

I understand the power of the portfolio
I understand the technical factors. The strategy/math, etc., are brilliant. Thank you, Alex.
The basic training videos are "good." Mike is a "very good" teacher. Alex is hard to understand (he gets energized; speaks fast and the handwaving does not help. However, as long as Mike weighs in, especially with the white board...that's good.
There is one video with the acronyms, which is good and needed. But the list is not comprehensive. There are many acronyms used, especially in Alex's emails, that are not included.
Which comes to my biggest challenge is that Alex has his own "financial and tactics language" that is hard for me to follow. When he tersely explains what he is doing with trades, it takes me much effort to understand. The actual execution of trades is not hard, but I often wonder whether I am doing the correct thing.
That said, the screenshots that Alex shares are excellent and needed. When I look at the account/trade screenshots I "get it."
That said, I am deeply impressed with Alex's efforts, insights, cheerleading, etc. He is inspiring.
I am in catch up mode. I am hopeful I will be successful. I am positive about the program, despite my having an experience that I marked as a 2-star.

Hi there,
Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed and thoughtful review—we really appreciate it.
It means a lot to hear that you see the strength in the strategy itself and the portfolio approach. That foundation is exactly what everything is built on, so it’s great to know that part is coming through clearly.
We also truly appreciate your feedback on the teaching styles. You’re absolutely right—Alex and Mike have very different approaches, and that’s intentional, but it can also create moments where things feel harder to follow. Alex tends to operate at a very high level and move quickly, while Mike does a great job slowing things down and breaking concepts out step-by-step. The combination is powerful, but we recognize it’s important to keep improving how those two styles connect.
Your point about the “language gap” and acronyms is especially helpful. That’s something we’re actively working on—creating clearer, more complete reference materials and making sure explanations are easier to follow in real time, not just after the fact.
We’re glad to hear the trade screenshots and real examples are helping things click—that’s a big part of how many members bridge that gap as they build confidence.
And most importantly, we really respect your mindset. You’re engaged, asking the right questions, and staying positive while putting in the work—that’s exactly what leads to success over time.
Thank you again for the honest feedback. It helps us get better, and we’re glad you’re on this journey with us.

continually learning , although struggle with the greeks and understanding the ability to effect them with trading , having an XSP account makes it twice as difficult.

I have been with Traders Edge following Preston and the crew for a couple of years. It was a great experience learning the Money Press. There were many ups and downs and the account did grow. Then the Diamonds came along with mentoring for a year and I took a chance. In 4 months of doing some of the trades, my account has doubled. I am loving it.

I was brand new to options trading as of mid last year. I am getting more comfortable and knowledgeable as the days and weeks go by. The training and the people at Traders Edge are 1st class all the way. I also joined Diamonds and it too has been eye opening. Alex takes thoughtfulness, caring and encouragement to a whole new level. I am enjoying the journey and look forward to continued growth and prosperity.

Alex's Diamonds System is evolutionary, not just revolutionary
I consider Alex's Diamonds System to be evolutionary, not just revolutionary. It takes Preston's great Money Press strategy to whole new levels with an incredible system of trades to protect your whole portfolio and to mitigate losses when the market goes "against you."
We only trade either the SPX or XSP index (or SPY, depending on our account size or type). Which means trading "the market," not just one stock symbol. And it also means trading an index that (mostly!) goes up and won't go bankrupt like an individual company that can.
I've been trading stocks and options since the early 2000s and I spent a year trading SPX - unsuccessfully - just before this Diamonds system was announced and I'm amazed at how well this system has worked. But more importantly, I'm amazed at how confident I feel putting money into these trades and how stress-free this system feels compared to all of my other trading with all the other trading systems I've used in years past!
And, as a bonus, the support staff at Trader's Edge Network is phenomenal, and the Diamonds Chat forum is full of folks ready to jump in with advice, support and amazing encouragement!
