The process being used for Diamonds trading is unbelievable. Still much to learn, but believe by the end of the year I will have much better understanding of the market dynamics.
Would be helpful if there was more focus on the following: 1) technical training using real examples from the S&P charts. 2) share more insight into the strikes and expiration dates used for the daily diamonds in terms of the relationship(s) to any moving average, resistance / support bands, and the keltner channels.
I realize Alex may not have the time but was hoping that Right Hand Mike could set aside some time to go through this. I would be willing to pay for this training.

Trader's Edge Network is outstanding in every way. The Money Press is unique, the education and training is excellent and ongoing, and the mentors are dedicated to improving students' trading analysis, strategy and comprehension. The recent introduction of Diamonds has raised the bar! TEN has created a trading family unsurpassed in the options world. I'm thrilled I found them!

Life Changing Experience Underway!
Joining this network is becoming a life changing experience! Prior to joining, I was just another ordinary “self trained” investor with little knowledge of how the market worked and meager returns at best.
After joining this group, I quickly learned to trade stock options, learned the Money Press Method, Master Income Trader, and now Diamonds trading strategies.
While I have had a lot of learning ups and downs along the way, I have stayed focused and now the training is really paying off as we journey through the Diamonds Program!!
I have only the highest regards for Preston, Mike, Alex, and the rest of the crew, and I feel fortunate to have found this group of trading professionals!
Thank you to the Crew, for all you do!

I got started later than most.
I got started later than planned because I’ve been preparing for retirement beginning March 1st. Since I knew I’d have a full year to work through the material, I went ahead and purchased the Diamond package, but I wasn’t able to dive in until March.
So far, I’ve watched and read all the content once. I’m now beginning a second pass, this time with a notebook to capture my key takeaways and make sure I’m internalizing the concepts. At this stage, I feel I have a basic understanding of XSP, MP’s, and the idea of GI and when to acquire it.
My current interpretation is that the daily or shorter‑duration spreads are primarily used to help balance Delta so that the portfolio sits closer to a pure Theta‑decay profile. I wish I knew more about this. when and exactly objectives behind each of those. I can see how these short duration spreads allow us to adjust risk and maintaining a balance (and sometimes profitable)
I realize that I started right as the SPX had brokent through the 50DMA, so the timing hasn’t been the easiest environment for me observing and learning.
My main concern at this point is whether I’ll be able to confidently continue applying this strategy once my subscription ends. If the year ended today, I’d have to say I’m not there yet. By November, I’m hopeful that will change. If you asked me again in a month, I hope I’d be able to report that things are really clicking.
I’m committed to continuing the work and building the level of understanding needed to operate independently.

Hi Keith,
First off, thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed and honest update—we really appreciate it.
What you’re experiencing right now is actually a very normal (and important) stage of the journey. The fact that you’ve gone through the material once and are now coming back through it with a notebook, focusing on truly understanding the “why” behind everything, is exactly how real confidence is built. That’s not falling behind—that’s doing it right.
You’re also picking up on some key concepts—delta balance, theta decay, and the role of short-duration spreads—which tells us you’re asking the right questions and starting to connect the dots. That “second pass” is often where things really begin to click.
As far as your concern about continuing independently, that’s something we take very seriously. Our goal isn’t just to teach concepts—it’s to help you build a repeatable process you can rely on long-term. That confidence doesn’t happen overnight, but with continued exposure, real examples, and time in the market, it does come together.
Also, you’re absolutely right that market conditions play a role. Starting during a more challenging environment like this can actually be a hidden advantage—it forces you to understand risk, adjustments, and positioning at a deeper level. When conditions stabilize, those skills tend to compound quickly.
Most importantly, your mindset stands out. You’re committed, reflective, and putting in the work—and those are the exact traits we see in traders who eventually become confident and consistent.
We’re glad to have you with us, and we’re excited to see how things progress for you over the next couple of months.
Keep going—you’re closer than you think.
—The Traders Edge Network Team

QQQ Money Press Strategy
Well, I have had some difficulty following all of Alex's trades. I know he knows what he is doing but this program set me on another course. I am using everything I have learned about the Money Press strategies and doing Money Presses with QQQ and SPY. I may graduate to SPX at some point, but this is working for me very well.

The Diamonds program is truly amazing…
The Diamonds program is truly amazing and an awesome addition to the other Traders Edge Network programs. I have been a member for a number of years now and have learned so much. With the Diamonds program I am up almost 50% in less than three months and still growing and that is in a choppy to down market. Can't wait to see what happens when the up trend returns.

Best experience of my 30 years trading options!
I started with Preston's Money Press system over 20 years ago and have made money consistently with his methods. I've seen many other systems that have tried to copy his methods but none with the genuine caring and integrity of the people who are in his employ and their students. I am now a member of the Diamonds group since it was offered to the public as of late November 2025 with Alex Rodriguez that has been one of the most lucrative, substantial safe money making systems I've ever been involved with or come across and I recommend it highly no matter how small or large your account size! I thank Alex, Preston and the Traders Edge Network for bringing it to me and the group of "Diamond" traders every single day! I've never experienced a more helpful trading group anywhere during my 30 years of trading. I truly feel like we are a trading family.

Great Program!
I really appreciate the daily communication. Its not just the trading advice but the explanation of the reasons behind the trading decisions. One of the elements I find very helpful is the End of Week report of Alex's "Current Positions". Since i am brand new to trading, I wish to thank all of you for this opportunity to learn from all your experience. Great Program!
