"After Trading 10 Thousand Dollars into $200 Million*, Market Wizard Richard Dennis wanted the Answer to this Question…"

Can just anyone learn trading success or is it something you're born with?

Along with his trading partner, Bill Eckhardt, he decided to find out the answer.


If you are interested in becoming a successful trader of leveraged financial products like CFDs, Futures, margin FOREX their answer could change your life and this is going to be one of the most exciting and revealing messages you will ever read.

Between the early 1970s and early 1980s a lone futures trader stunned the world by turning a ‘grub-stake’ of just a few thousand dollars into an astonishing $200
million (Source Market Wizards by Jack Schwager).

Then in 1983 he personally taught his secret trading method to 14 ordinary people whom he nicknamed ‘The Turtles’.  The results have been spoken about in awe ever since because…

…over the next five years, The Turtles earned some $175 million in profits using the exact same system! It seemed that anyone could just copy the Turtle Method and use it to generate huge profits for themselves.

All were sworn to strict secrecy, and although many outsiders have since tried to discover the genuine Turtle Secret for themselves – all have failed. But now, at last, one man - an original Turtle - is prepared to reveal exactly what went on behind the closed doors of that meeting room in Chicago.

Now, you can learn the outstanding Turtle Trading System for yourself  - taught directly by original Turtle, Russell Sands.
His story is quite remarkable…

An Amazing Story

In 1983, futures-trading legends Bill Eckhardt and Richard Dennis took out a remarkable advert in the press. They were offering something quite extraordinary…a chance to spend two weeks with them learning the inside secrets of futures trading.

 The exact same secrets which had made Dennis $200 million !

Dennis had made a bet with Eckhardt that any reasonably intelligent person could duplicate his success just by following a few simple trading rules. Bill Eckhardt disagreed. He thought trading was more intuitive and complex than that.

From those who responded to the advert, 14 ordinary people in the first group agreed to come and be trained in what was to become famous world-wide as the ‘Turtle’ trading method. To prove it for  a second time the next year another 10 were trained in similar circumstances.

Few people know that in the first group Richard Dennis' Trading Floor manager was dropped - he had some bad trading habits! - & all 22 were sworn to secrecy about what went on behind the closed doors of that meeting room and embargoed for 9 years.

They were bound over not to disclose any aspect of their training, and to give them credit,
not one of them broke that code of silence. 

Oh yes, and the important point is this:

They became famous traders and the Turtles group went on to make serious money from futures trading! Futures are leveraged derivatives instruments which increase return and increase return!

Now if this idea of learning how to trade successfully appeals to you  I suggest you read on.

These were ordinary people (Eckhardt and Dennis insisted on that to make the test fair). They included an actor, a security guard, a professional card player, a low-paid bookkeeper, a financial consultant, a boy fresh out of school, a woman who used to be an exchange clerk and even a fantasy game designer. Of the two that were cut one was Rich Dennis own Trading Floor Manager - he was not a beginner - more on this later.

Famous trader and author Jack Schwager devoted two books to learning the methods of Market Wizard Traders. He spent more time and effort trying to learn the Secrets of the Turtles than any other method. In 3 Chapters and many interviews he could not get the the Turtles to reveal their secrets.

Now, at last, after years of silence an Original member of the select Group is able to reveal to you exactly what was disclosed in that room

Russell Sands sat at the foot of the Master and learned the Turtles method:

  • Has traded the Turtles Method since 1983

  • The first and only Turtle to teach these methods face to face.

  • Larry Williams asked him to first teach the real methods

  • He was a partner in the biggest Turtle Fund in the world

  • He trades these methods day in day out - he is the real deal

  • Is  a US CTA registered & Member of the National Futures Association

  • Before Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans Russell Sands like a good Turtle was long Energies.
    As Katrina hit he liquidated that long energy position right on the day of the all time HISTORIC
    High of Energies.
    He nailed it! You will be can the same little known rules he used to achieve this feat.

And Russell Sands is making a rare trip to Asia in October

With leveraged instruments like CFDs so popular now is the time to learn the Turtle Method to improve your chances of success and get professional grade risk management techniques.

Why am I qualified to teach this? Simple.

I am one of the original 22, and I am now released from my contractual obligation to remain silent all these years. I am finally free to teach the legendary Turtle Trading System to any serious person looking for a legitimate, profitable trading system.
 

This is your invitation to meet with me face-to-face to learn from me the exact same Turtle trading system which made me what I am today.

My Name is Russell Sands and I have been trading stocks, commodities, futures, financial indices and currencies ever since that extraordinary training session in 1983
I have run hedge funds and advised clients. I am a Registered Commodity Trading Adviser (CTA) and an approved National Futures Association (NFA) associate member with students in many countries around the world.

I have been featured in various publications and you may even have read about me in publications such as Stocks & Commodities and The Wall Street Journal.

But my background in the lucrative trading world is not what you would call conventional. I did not learn to make great money by working for a bank or a stockbroker. Instead I was taught a remarkable and easy trading system face-to-face by Richard Dennis and Bill Eckhardt  - two of the world’s finest traders

Since that day, I have never looked back. (If you have read ‘Market Wizards’ you will find more about Richard Dennis and you will find more about Bill Eckhardt  and the Turtle Trading program in ‘New Market Wizards’ Click here to Order the books>>.)

I knew very little about trading prior to meeting Eckhardt and Dennis, although I had dabbled a little. As I said, my background is not conventional so please bear with me.

I was the ‘professional card player’ mentioned in the list above. In 1980 I won the backgammon world championship in Las Vegas. I continue to play backgammon and to a professional standard and have been banned from many US casinos! (They don’t like winners, in case you hadn’t guessed!)

With some of my winnings I started trading futures. At that time although my backgammon and skills where very good, my financial trading skills where not that great.

Sure I had some qualifications in business, economics and finance but as I quickly found out in the real trading world qualifications don’t mean a thing.

Then one day I was reading the New York Times and came across an amazing ad. The article over the page gives you more information but basically the advert read “traders wanted.”

I mailed off my application, went for an interview and the rest is history as they say. Being employed by Richard Dennis, being taught his ‘Turtle trading’ secrets and trading with his money (I had very little of my own) changed my life.

Just so you know I am licensed in the USA (by the CFTC) as a Commodity Trading Adviser. I hold the following licenses and passed the exams;

  • SERIES 7 (STOCKBROKER)

  • SERIES 3 (COMMODITIES)

  • SERIES 63 (BLUE SKY LAWS)

  • SERIES 55 (NASDAQ TRADER)

  • FUTURES ASSOCIATION MEMBER (NFA)

  • COMMODITY TRADING ADVISOR (CTA)

  • COMMODITY POOL OPERATOR (CPO)

  • INTRODUCING BROKER (IB)

Reading this letter and taking action could change your life in the next few months.

Jack Schwager in his Market Wizards books tried and tried to no avail to discover what Richard Dennis had taught the TURTLES .......They simply would not speak as they had agreed in their employment contract to a Secrecy Embargo.

So…please close the door, switch off the TV, turn off your mobile phone and give me your full attention for 10 minutes.

What I have to say in this letter could make a massive difference  to you.

A big statement yes, but when you read more about me and the opportunity I am offering I am sure you will agree your 10 minutes will be well spent.

Everything I have to say can be backed up and in fact you may already know about my experience and the legendary group of traders know as the ‘Turtles’.

What Sort of ‘Trading’ are we Talking About Here?

Forgive me if you know this already, but I want to make this absolutely step-by-step clear for you so that by the end of this letter you will have all the information you need to make your decision about whether to meet with me or not.

Let me explain exactly what I do for a living. I apologize in advance because you might find yourself getting a little angry when you read this! Maybe you will think it isn’t fair that I should do so little and get so much?  Having said that, let me tell it to you like it is.
 

This Could be YOUR ‘Working’ Day!        

I get up each morning quite late (I do not like early mornings) and have a leisurely shower and breakfast.

The entire day is pretty much mine to do with as I please because I do not start ‘work’ until the markets close later in the day.

By about 6 p.m. I am ready for ‘work’ & I stroll the few paces to my office which is just down the hall. 

My computer has been running all day (I never switch it off) and I sit at the desk to look at the prices of various commodities and indices.

You know the sort of thing – coffee, orange juice, silver, the S&P index. I generally monitor about 40 such markets. Please note I do not study these markets.

Fortunately, the ‘Turtle’ system does not require that much knowledge of markets and the mysterious ‘behind the scenes’ factors which cause them to move.

All I know is that I can make money if the market moves in either direction. What I am interested in is the closing price of each market for that day. It takes me all of ten seconds per market to get those prices.

Next I apply one of the three ‘Turtle trading rules’ (there are only three and I will teach them to you when we meet). 

I call this first rule the ‘Get In’ rule.                      
   

This simple rule allows me to answer the following question: is one (or more) of
these markets signalling that it is time for me to get in and make a trade? This takes me less than one minute per market to do – about 40 minutes in total.

On any given day there might be no markets signalling (this is quite often the case) or maybe one or two signalling (it is rarely more than two).  I note these down.

Next I have a quick look at the ‘action’ in the markets I currently hold positions in. To these markets I apply the second Turtle rule – what I call the ’Get Out’ rule. Basically, this rule tells me if it is time to take profits and close my position. 

This takes me about ten minutes – tops. 10 minutes a day!!


Finally, I apply the special Turtle ‘stop loss’ rule to all current positions plus any I am thinking of placing. 

This rule absolutely limits my downside risk to whatever I decide I am comfortable with. At no time – ever – can I lose more than I decide. There is no ‘unlimited risk’ in this trading method – that’s for suckers or people with deeper wallets than mine!

At this point I have been at my desk for about an hour. I have one last thing to do and that is to make a quick call to my broker and give him instructions to buy or sell. Quite often I do this over the Internet these days. That takes, say, another five minutes. 

That’s it. My day’s work is over and the evening is mine to do with as I please.

 How does that sound? Feels and looks even better to me.

One Hour Each Day - Maximum

I spend less than 20 minutes each day actually trading, and about 40 minutes in what you might call ‘admin.’

No I do not watch a flickering TV screen all day ready to leap to the telephone if a market makes a move. Who the heck wants to do that? What a waste of a life! I couldn’t stomach that no matter how much money was involved. In fact, I couldn’t care less what the market is doing during the trading day and rarely watch it. 

All I care about are the closing prices. And once I have called in my positions, there is absolutely nothing else to do as it is all handled automatically for me. I do not need to anxiously watch the screen in case I lose money – the second a position loses money, my ‘Turtle stop loss’ order takes me straight out of the market with minimal loss.

Similarly, I do not need to waste my life waiting for a market top or bottom (remember, I make money on rises AND falls).
It is hard/impossible to predict when a certain trend will turn around. It could be days, weeks or months before the trend finishes. Fortunately, I don’t care. My ‘get out’ order is automatically triggered for me and credits the profits to my account even if I am asleep at the time!

So, that’s how I make my money. I’m sorry not to report that I sweat and strain for nine hours a day, 6 days a week
with huge stress and a hideous commute to work each day. In the twenty years I have been doing this –  I have made great money trading the same way! How many traders can say that? Sure sometimes I do lose money and I will explain about that later.

It sure as hell beats working for a living, I can tell you.

Why Not Join Me?

And you know the amazing thing? You could do this too. Imagine - one hour a day and  being a trader! By the way, I choose to work in the evening – you can do your hour pretty much any time the markets are closed. This means you do not have to give up your existing job whilst you prove to yourself that the Turtle trading system really does work.

Whilst Other Trading Methods Pile up Hypothetical ‘Paper’ Profits –The Turtles Pile up Actual

A Truly Portable Business

You can operate this from anywhere in the world. If you have access to a computer and a phone line – you are in business. I have often done this from a sunny hotel balcony overlooking a beautiful beach.

And here’s a business which has no staff*, no premises, no stock, no overhead, no boss, no commuting
– and the potential for five times the money you can get from most so-called ‘jobs’.  If that sounds tempting, why not meet with me and learn the original trading method.



Besides, there is a little more to it than just learning the three rules – that’s why I need you to devote
two full days to spend with me. Over the years I have honed and refined the rules and I now have a very reliable and proven system. I would like to share all of my knowledge and experience with you, if you are willing to let me.

I want to make sure you fully understand exactly how to apply the rules and how to start profitable trading right away.

The rules are easy. What is more difficult is getting you to apply them in a disciplined manner every day. 

An hour a day does not sound much. It isn’t. But… you must do that hour each & every trading day to
be successful. In this sense it is not a part-time system which you can pick up & drop as the mood takes you.

 Let me explain a little more about the system so that you can make an informed decision.


What is the ‘Turtle Trading’ Method?


It is a set of simple rules – actually, only three simple rules – which give you a fantastic trading ‘edge’ if these rules are applied methodically over a period of time, taking into account certain other factors which  I will teach you
 

How Does it Work?

Put simply, Turtles are trend-followers. A ‘trend’ is a market which is moving either up or down – we don’t care which – for a significant period of time. The Turtle rules allow us to spot a trend (these are not always obvious to the layman) and jump on board. We then ride the wave until the trend has ended (the rules tell us when) at which point we jump off the wave and take profits.

Sounds simple? That’s the beauty of the Turtle trading method. It is so simple a child can understand the rules – and more importantly IT WORKS.

Now there are two important points here:

We cannot make money when markets move sideways, as they often do. We only make money on trends
up or down. The Turtle rules allow us easily to spot such trends at an early enough stage to get on board. By the time everyone else has woken up, they are often too late.

We often get it wrong (note, not sometimes but often). In fact, we get it wrong far more often than
we get it right. Looking back through my records, my own trades have been wrong on about 75% of occasions and right on just 25%. And here’s the kicker – each time we get it wrong, we lose money!

Hey, maybe this isn’t sounding so hot any more?

Well, suspend your judgement for a moment because, with your permission, I would like to give you a little ‘qualifying test’ to see if you are right for Turtle Training (not everyone has the common sense and emotional discipline required).

Any questions so far? Use this link to ask them....

 Do You Qualify?

 Here’s a simple test. If you can easily follow this example, you understand the basics of super-profitable trading. Do not worry too much if you do not completely understand this – you certainly will by the end of our day together!

Supposing you are betting on the roll of a 4-sided ‘pyramid-shaped’ dice with faces numbered 1, 2, 3 and 4. Let’s also assume that 75% of the time your bet will be wrong, and only 25% of the time it will be right. That is, of course, exactly what you would expect from such a 4-sided dice. Now I want to add a further rule. Each time you are wrong, it costs you $100. Each time you are right, you are paid $1,000.

Question: Are you happy to play this game?

You bet! I would play this game 24/7 if the fools would let me – and I hope you would too! 
This is truly a ‘no lose’ game. The longer you play, the richer you get.

But hold on… we just said you LOSE three rolls out of four! Also, supposing you had a really bad losing streak and twelve throws in a row you got it wrong and your number didn’t come up? This could easily happen. Ouch! That’s twelve hundred bucks up in smoke! Would you throw up your hands in disgust, and leave the table muttering that it was a ‘mug’s game’?

I sincerely hope not! You would, I hope, snap your fingers at such losses and reach for the dice again. You know with 100% (not even 99.9999%) certainty that if you stay at the table long enough you will clean up BIG TIME

Personally, I would be begging them to let me bet $1,000 a throw and get $10,000 each time I won!
I hope that example was perfectly clear to you. What we have here is a game where you lose far more often
(in frequency) than you win, but when your number comes up (as it will), you win enough to easily cover your losses and make a fat profit.

Steady, Long-Term Trading

 If you want in-and-out day trading, you might as well stop reading right now. The Turtle System averages five or six trades per commodity per year. Granted, if you followed (say) 15 commodities you would have plenty of trades, but still this is far from intra-day trading. You see, the system as specifically designed to capture major trends and to be workable without staring at a computer screen all day.

The Turtle trading system is a long-term (about 12 months) system. What this means is that you  will have losing streaks. (I guarantee that 100%!) but over a 12 month period you can expect to come out ahead.

But… This May Not be For You

Now I don’t want to embarrass you, but I need to make one other thing clear before we meet. There are so many scams and ‘get rich quick’ junk doing the circuit, promising instant cash for no work that when something genuine comes along it is often hard to spot.

You can always spot the genuine offers because they do NOT offer ‘loadsacash’ within 24 hours of joining or buying. Yes, it is very tempting to be promised a massive cash injection immediately, but in twenty years of seeing such schemes I have yet to meet anyone who made money from them – apart from the promoters, of course!

So let me put this as delicately as possible... If you are in serious debt or financial difficulty or you need cash right now to bail you out of some emergency – please do not sign up for this training seminar. I do not want to train you under such circumstances.

Your mind will not be on the task in hand, and you will expect your very first trade to bring you in a massive amount of cash – enough to pay off all your debts and have a good holiday as well! I wish life was like that.

The truth is
Murphy’s law states that your first few trades will lose (not a lot, but nevertheless it is real money) and you must be able to take this on the chin and not lose heart before the big profits come. So I would say this is for serious people only. People whose finances are in pretty good shape, but who want a shot at making $100k a year and maybe giving up work as soon as possible.

 If you are utterly risk averse and will fold at the first loss, this is not for you.

OK, that’s all the health warnings out of the way. Still with me? Want to learn how to trade the futures markets and make fat profit each year? Great! Read on because…

Now The Most Proven Trading Method On The Planet Can Be YOURS!

Let’s see… traders have used this method to make over one billion dollars in real live trades. Would you like to share some of this? Imagine what this could mean. Would your life be enhanced if you had just a fraction of the success of the Turtles – and the time to enjoy it?

Why Am I Doing This?  Many people ask me why I bother teaching the Turtle method. What’s in it for me?

The best way I can answer is this… teaching is my hobby.

I get a great kick out of teaching this trading system to those willing to listen, and I travel the world doing it - but it costs me money. I run an office with staff, 6 computers, a full time technician and many other overheads totalling about $12,000 a month. I hasten to add that all you will need is one PC and a phone line!

By teaching the system to others, I cover all my overheads which means I get to keep all of
what I make with zero costs attached.

I get a tremendous kick out of seeing others succeed in exactly the way I have.

Like my early Australian students

  • Philip York QBL Funds Management - Promethean Funds and Imperial Funds Management,

  • Dr Ben Chan (a very private trader who gave up his medical practice to trade full time),

  • Joe Cho runs Share Fund out of Melbourne.

  • One who is now both a US CTA and an Australian Trading Advisor

  • An Australian CTA who has modified the Turtles system and has a great equity curve the last time I looked at it

    Besides, the market is large enough that no matter how many people I teach this to, it will not make even the smallest dent in our results. For every one Turtle there are in excess of 1,000 non-Turtles. And another thing… I want to be absolutely honest right here and tell you that 80% of people I teach this to do not even follow through. Only 20% (the ones who actually USE the system) go on to make great money.

Text Box: "I have nothing but respect & admiration for Russell Sands" 

Larry Williams, Trader and author of ‘How I made one million dollars trading commodities.’

 Are You In The Top 20%?

Why would someone part with quite a large fee to have me teach them these inside secrets only then  to do absolutely nothing about it?

I guess it is just human nature. Some people think they know better and will run off and lose money on some other system (they are known as ‘system chasers’ you get them in trading, and roulette too). Many become overwhelmed with the humdrum business of life. They fully intend to do the system ‘one day’ (when they clear a space for the computer; when the spare room is decorated; when their daughter’s wedding is over, etc.)  but that day never comes and the system vanishes under a mountain of paper, never to be seen again.

And despite every warning I give, I still have people turn up at the seminar who have
borrowed money for my fee and need this system to provide cash for them instantly, preferably that evening!

They need money right now, urgently, to pay for bills and living expenses &
to pay off debts.

Some, although they seem attentive on the day, simply are not listening. They go off and apply the wrong rules in the wrong way and mess up completely. They lose money and then blame me! Yet others are put off by their first one or two trades losing money. They lose heart, lose confidence and give up.

Let me repeat: This is a long-term game (6-12 months) and you cannot play this if you are
worried sick about  losing money in the short term.

Many profitable systems are a little like this. Did you know it is actually rather easy to make great money as a professional card player? Many people do this year in, year out. And their method is not so difficult to learn.

So why doesn’t everyone do it? 


Simple, they lack the discipline to play the game exactly as instructed by the system, and they are emotionally weak – they cannot take a loss.

The winners know two things:

They can have six straight losing hands in a row and it doesn’t worry them in the slightest – they know, with ice-cold certainty, that a winner will come along to redress the balance and put them into profit.

And so they keep banking the money year after year after year – it’s almost boring for them. (By the way, I have been banned from almost every
casino within commuting (5 hours flying) distance from my home!)

The losers lack discipline and don’t get the bets on; they also run for cover after the first two
or three losing hands – they simply do not have the emotional fortitude to take a loss.


 Futures trading is a little like that. I can snap my fingers at any number of straight losing trades (remember the four-sided dice?) my losses are always minimised in these trades, in a way I will teach you when we meet. But still, they are real losses.

You see I know with 100% certainty (after over twenty
years there is not a flicker of doubt in my mind) that within a short time I will have a winning trade – and that trade will make me a large amount of money, easily enough to wipe out all the losses and put me into a huge profit.

I well remember teaching this at a recent seminar. As it happened,
the seminar coincided with one  market which was set to explode. I showed the delegates that this was about to happen. Three weeks later it made the biggest move it had made in a decade.

Now two important things happened:

1.  My telling all those people had not the slightest effect on the market – I still made a killing (proving the market is far bigger than anything we Turtles can influence.)

  2.  Only 25% of the delegates got on board! The others missed the chance due to inertia, laziness, inattention or thinking they knew better. Just imagine that! They had all paid money to have me   teach them this incredible system, and then….  they missed out on perhaps the biggest most profitable trade for a decade… and that’s AFTER I had spelled it out to them.

What You Don’t Need in Order to do This

For some reason, people often associate futures or commodities trading with egg-head type people who are hugely knowledgeable and have spent a lifetime studying these things.

Well, I and the other Turtles are living proof that this is not so.

Here are a few things you do NOT NEED:

  • NO degree in maths and statistical methods.

  • NO Knowledge of economics.

  • NO knowledge whatsoever of markets and how or why they move.

  • Any experience of trading futures

  • NO Staff, NO premises, stock and NO expensive overhead

  • Intuition or a ‘feel’ for markets. This is an objective method, not subjective

You will not be looking at charts and making ‘educated guesses’ about what to do. 
There is too much room for error there.

What You DO NEED in Order to do This

  • The ability to understand and follow three simple rules

  • Discipline and common sense (do not just nod to this – it is hugely important and I will be covering this in a little while. Everyone claims to be disciplined but few actually are)

  • To have your finances in order and to be solvent. You cannot play with ‘scared’ money

  • About an hour each day (often it is far less)

  • A PC and telephone line an internet connection

  • A downloading software and data (ADEST can help you with this)

  • An open mind. Forget everything you have heard about trading and be prepared to learn a   simple method that works.

  • Willingness to learn.

  • Humility and the realisation that you know very little, if anything, about how markets move or why. That’s great – you don’t need to know anything about either


Trouble Begins With an ‘E’

Just Follow the Rules!  
This is so easy to say but oh so hard for some people to do. They just cannot seem to stop themselves from messing up! They invent their own rules, follow their hunches, and miss out on trades because of other, more trivial things which crowd into their lives. 

That is sad when it is so very simple to make money from this. All you have to do is look at charts and apply three very simple rules (which takes less than one minute to do per commodity or index) and then act on that information by making a phone call.

I want to say again that you need to know nothing about markets, nothing about what is happening in the world and nothing  about the commodity or index in question or why it is moving up or down. 

I want you to be like the Nike commercial slogan – Just do it!  
Those who ‘just do it’ (like me) make money.

Text Box: Paul from Texas was up 47% profit in his first five months.

A Maryland man made over 100% in just ten months.
The Very Real and Crucial Decision You MUST Face
You are right now faced with an important decision…quite possibly a turning point in your financial life.

The decision is not whether to learn this secret. The decision is whether or not you should trade futures at all.

Let me explain…


You see, unlike the stock-market, futures trading is a zero sum game:

  • If I make money, someone else loses

  • If I lose money, someone else wins

Put simply, every dollar you make using these secrets is a pound lost by someone else. Now it has been documented independently that Turtle traders made $426 million profit in just one year. It has been documented independently that Turtle traders made......$1.46 BILLION in just five years.

And this means…

…all those traders WITHOUT the Turtle secret had to reach into their pockets
 and pay nearly $1.5 BILLION to the Turtles who HAD the secret!

Putting it simply, you cannot afford to trade futures without the Turtle secret. So if you are not willing to learn this from me, I humbly suggest you do not trade futures – unless you really want to play on the side with a $1.5 BILLION disadvantage that is!

I always get some ‘expert’ at a seminar who wants to argue with me saying that their method is better or more profitable. There will be one at our meeting – I guarantee it! Also, some people don’t like what I have to say. That’s okay – I’m not there to please people.

For me, it’s a question of what works and what doesn’t work.

I know one thing for sure – what I do makes money. It works. I have made consistent profits from this. Dennis and Eckhardt made $200 million using these three simple rules, so I ask the person if they have made more than $200 million. If not, I assume they are not as smart as Dennis and Eckhardt.

The day I meet someone who has made more than $200 million – that’s the day I switch systems.  Also, I like people to disagree with me. Remember the zero sum game?  

The more people who bet against me, the more money there is available for me and the other Turtles to make.

Is it risky?

This is something I am often asked, and it is a reasonable question, particularly as you may believe that futures and commodities are ultra-risky gambles.

Well, the simple answer is that yes, of course, there is a risk of loss  involved, just like with any trading or investment. And yes, I would say the risk is higher than investing in blue chips or whatever. But of course the rewards are massively larger – and that’s why I and the other Turtles do it. (and hey, blue-chips are not doing so great in case you hadn’t noticed!)

The great thing about this is that you can test the Turtle rules before you make a single live trade. Any decent computer trading software will verify for you that this woks consistently. 

At this point I expect you would like to know a little more about this fantastic profit generator?

More About the Turtle Trading Method

Here are a few indicators of what we do (and don’t do)

1.    We don’t try to predict the market. Nobody is clever enough to do that, no matter what they say.  Quite honestly, I do not want to spend 8 hours per day analysing the markets, reading press releases  and scouring the financial press.

2.    Using certain signals (what I call the ‘Get In’ rule), we learn to spot a trend. When a trend emerges (up or down) we leap on board and ride the wave. Sometimes the wave fizzles out as fast as it began and we only make a small amount or even lose a little. But every so often (several times a year)  we get to ride a large wave and when we do we make enormous profits.

3.   I do not know how long any particular trend will continue. A trend is moved by forces outside of any one person’s knowledge and control. It could be days or months. I do not need to know exactly when it will turn around. I apply another simple rule (called, unimaginatively, the ‘Get out’ rule) and that pulls me automatically out of the market when the trend has finished.

Here’s What Else We Do:

1.      Because it is impossible to guess which market will move next, I keep tabs on about 40 and so  I catch every move that comes along.

2.      I minimize my losses using a simple method. This means that I can never lose more than a small amount on a trade, no matter how much the market moves against me.

3.      I ride the market until the trend has finished.

4.      I trade all markets exactly the same. In fact, I do not even need to know which chart I am looking at! 

It is irrelevant to me if it is orange juice, hogs, Soya beans or the
S&P ASX 200 SFE Futures – I just don’t care. You could remove the labels and I could still trade that market.

Only later would you tell me it was (say) coffee, at which point I would shrug indifferently! They are all the same to me.

5.      If a trend develops and continues – I do nothing. I do not have the omniscient knowledge required to guess when the trend will stop and so I spend zero time worrying about it.

The Turtle system takes you out when the trend turns the other way.
As I say, it could be days, weeks or months. Who knows? Not me, that’s for sure!

You  may be interested to hear that for each of my successful years it has been a different market that has made the big bucks for me. One year it was silver, another it was coffee (I made $22,000 per position on that one!) the next it was Soya beans.

And that is all there is to it. The rules are simple – a 12 year old could understand them perfectly. The instructions are simple and clear; the same 12 year old could apply them. What is difficult is having the personal discipline to do it every day; also having the discipline to follow rules and not get cute or think you know better – you don’t.

You also need the benefit of my 20+ years of refining, honing and USING the system. All of this knowledge will be yours by the end of the weekend.

"Having installed and set up the trading systems for EDF Mann, Credit Suisse, Merryl Lynch,
 Nat West stockbrokers, Barclays, de Zoete Wedd I can honestly say that Turtles in an
 extremely reliable and credible trading methodology very refreshing approach."

Christopher O'Connor UK 2003

Sound Interesting?

Why not come along and let me personally train you in the exact method? Let me give you all the knowledge, all the tools and all the notes and training materials to take away with you and study at your leisure. 

Let me go one better – how about if I give you my personal and private contact details (telephone
number and email address) for you to use any time you want clarification on any point we covered?

Here's What YOU'LL Learn :

1.      The Turtle ‘Get In’ rule – after glancing at a chart, this tells you how to identify an emerging trend and  exactly when to make your trade. It takes less than one minute to apply to each market.

2.      The Turtle ‘Get Out’ rule. After glancing at a chart, this rule tells you when the trend has finished and when to close your trade and take profits. It takes less than one minute to apply to each market.

3.      How to handle your entire trading in less than one hour each day and one single telephone call per day.  Everything else happens automatically for you. (On many days it will only be 10 minutes or less).

4.      Why this unique system means you do not have to watch a flickering screen all day or keep your eyes glued to the market. Remember, under one hour a day and one ‘phone call – that is all I do, and that is all you need to do.

5.     The specific rules for defining a breakout. Markets have a lot of sideways movement – we are not interested in that. We only get on  board when the market ‘breaks out’ from a sideways movement and starts to trend either upwards or downwards.

6.      Why you shouldn’t read newspapers, scour the financial press, join Internet sites or listen to stories and rumours.

7.      Why you need to know nothing whatsoever about fundamentals of markets. You simply have not got the time and energy to spend in studying these things. You will look at ‘close of day’ prices only, and make your decisions on these.

8.      How small traders can apply the techniques at least as well as the big money managers – and often better.

I Will Also Show You Rules for Everything to do with Trading

Plus I want to give you a lot more information and tools (totally free of charge) to aid your success see later. But first…

I expect you had already heard of the legendary ‘Turtle trading method’ prior to receiving this letter. Maybe you had also heard of me? Whatever your previous state of knowledge, I hope I have given you enough information for you to make up your own mind about meeting me.             

So – Will You Join Me?

I think it is fair to say it is decision time for you.

Are you willing to invest some money and two days of your time to learn this amazing trading system from someone who was there at the beginning? Someone who uses the system daily to generate great profits. And remember, this is a proven system, not something new and theoretical. I have been trading it for over eighteen years. How much more tested could it possibly be?

Maybe you have some trading experience or maybe you are just starting out - it doesn’t matter which. In many ways, the less you know the better because then we do not have to waste time ‘unlearning’ a lot of false beliefs you may hold.

Like Eckhardt and Dennis, I prefer ‘lay’ people to traders. In seminar after seminar it is always the raw newbies who outperform any so-called ‘experts’ I have in the audience. The latter (most of which have never made any significant money from trading) usually want to argue with me and ‘prove’ that Turtle trading is not profitable before holding forth about their own ‘pet’ system which will go into profit any day real soon now... They do not allow the facts of my twenty+ years of trading to cloud their opinions!

You see, the newbies have no preconceived ideas – they just follow the rules. Also, they are not ensnared by the illusion that they know something about markets and trading. They know nothing – and they know it! In contrast, the ‘experts’ are tempted to tinker with the rules and to modify their trading according to their ‘expert’ knowledge. This always spells disaster.

So – if you are knowledgeable about markets and trading and you have made less than $1million personal profit from your trading, all I ask is that you come with an open mind.  Be prepared to throw out a lot of ‘junk knowledge’ and replace it with something that works.

I am going to teach you the original and genuine Turtle system from A to Z. This is the exact system that I and the other Turtles use each day to make our money. And I don’t mean some second or third hand theories taught by people who were not party to the original secrets and who have not made significant money from their trading. All these people are doing is trying to make money from hoping on the band wagon. Talk about the blind leading the blind!

No, I am talking about me going through everything with you face-to-face and step-by-step live for 2 days in Sydney and teaching you the complete system that WORKS.

It doesn’t matter if you know anything about 30-year bonds, Bund futures, what stocks make up the ASX S&P 200, the Simsci, how the weather effects soybeans or anything else about markets. Remember, you do not need to know what moves a market!

If you handed me an unlabelled chart, within one minute I could tell you if a profitable trend was emerging. This is a skill you will have at your fingertips after our training session together.

Let me also make it clear that this is no rocket science formula that needs degrees or super-computers

Also you do not need a massive starting bank to trade this way; you can start with around $30,000.00 of capital for futures trading and $10,000 for CFDs (if you do not have this amount of money to trade with this is not for you at this stage).

Capital Requirements, Drawdown and Trading Size

On Net searches you'll probably see some reference to the Turtles by people who do not trade the Turtles method and never have. Russell . Let's just talk about the facts as they stand:

  1. The Turtles Method of Entry and Exiting the market is a part of what you learn with this seminar - what you will learn goes beyond simple rules.

  2. With over 20 years trading and teaching experience I have specifically tailored limited diversified portfolios for smaller accounts who  wish to trade futures. Something that Rich Dennis never originally did. You will be taught these at the seminar.

  3. If you wish to trade futures the Mini Contracts are help out

  4. Traders of CFDs can now trade the Turtles method on $5,000 to $10,000 accounts and this has proven very popular in the UK where CFDs were invented. In 2003 I taught over 300 traders at the Turtle Trading Concepts seminar in London many of them were CFD traders and they reported satisfaction with their results on accounts as small as Two Thousand Pounds.

  5. Smaller Forex on Margin Contract size now allow you to adjust your positions to tailor your position to your risk preference and capital.  

Drawdowns: Show me a trading method where the time frame is greater than a 1 minute chart that has no losses or draw downs over 5 years and I will be very happily trade it with you!

I have researched many many methods - even invented my own Stock index trading System called Balanced Trader which picks turning points but I have never found one that did not lose money at some point in time. Losses in trading are the same as breathing in and out in life - they are a necessary evil.

"An excellent trading method, which was made famous by Richard Dennis and William Eckhardt and is sometimes referred to as Turtle Trading, is one of the best Forex trading systems that I know of. They get returns in excess of 20 to 100% per year using this system."
J,.D. Australia Oct 2005

Now, do you have the discipline, commitment & knowledge to learn how to take advantage of it?

The Turtles method has draw downs and I've found a way to actually take advantage of these draw downs to smooth the equity curve. I will teach this at the seminar.

Rich Dennis did not have this in his teachings - we have come a long way in 20 years.

This is one of the reasons why my own equity curve is smoother and draw downs less than you would expect from what the internet marketing experts would have you believe.

I freely admit this is not for everybody and nor do I want it to be. If you have read this far and decided this is not for you, then let us now say goodbye and I thank you for reading what I have to say. But if you are interested in a simple method of making great yearly profits from trading the world’s markets and you think you have what it takes to be an elite ‘Turtle trader,’ then please apply right now for your place.

Here's a peak at the extensive materials valued at $3,000 you will receive at the seminar:

 

Turtle Trading Rules

Its your money you want to be armed with a lot more information than just a Free Internet PDF before you trade. You deserve the full knowledge.

W
hen you book and pay by the early bird date you get the following bonuses

  • 16 hours of DVDs Value US$2,000

  • Turtles Book and DVD Value US$200

  • 1 Years Hot Markets Reports value US$2,000

What you will need is some common sense, the ability to follow rules and the discipline to apply them daily, the willingness to learn, the ability to not be influenced by the media and those around you and  your assurance that you will keep everything that you learn & that I give you strictly private and for your own use.

Which brings me neatly on to this:

Before you go any further I want to make it clear that there are three conditions I insist upon before I can accept you for training. Nobody gets through the door unless they agree to these conditions. Let me get them out of the way right now:

Text Box: The Conditions

1.	You will be asked to sign an agreement. This binds you not to discuss the Turtle method with others, to keep all the information, notes and other materials hidden away and strictly for your own private use. Above all, you are not allowed to teach or train others in the original Turtle method.
2.	You will be asked to sign an understanding of the financial implications of trading futures, also a statement that you have sufficient liquid funds (over £2,000) to invest in this system. Please do not attend if you do not have at least this amount of liquid capital. (Despite this condition, I always get people who have borrowed heavily for the fee and the trading funds and are desperate to make a profit from day one!)
3.	You will be asked to sign a disclaimer protecting me from any come-back as a result of your trading activity. Put simply, this means Big Boys’ games, Big Boy’s Rules. I will teach you the method, but I am not responsible for your trading activities (you can tell I come from the USA, right?)


Are those conditions OK for you? Great, let’s MOVE along…

Can You Afford Not to Attend?

I expect you have been wondering about the cost involved in your training? Let me clear this up right now.

During the time I have been training people to enjoy from trading, I have thought about various payment formulas. In the past I tinkered with the idea of receiving a monthly percentage of trading profits from the delegates over their entire trading career. Although this is by far the most profitable option for me (amounting to tens of thousands of dollars per delegate) it soon became clear to me that this was an administrative nightmare. Imagine if I had to pester you for monthly bank statements and then issue you with an invoice each month – and chase you for payment. Ugh! It was a complete disaster.

Then I tried charging what I consider to be the correct one-off fee for the training, US$15,000.00 per delegate (about  $25,000.00).

That was fine except it seriously restricted the number of people who came for training.  I heard that $25,000.00 is some  people have charged for a course that I have never heard anyone say they were successful  from! Its certainly more than most people are willing to risk without having proof that the system works.

So I have finally settled on a formula which works. Here it is and I hope you approve.

In the US I charge US$5,000 (SG$7,500) for a Home Study Course and Manual and Set of DVDs. They don't get the Benefits of the seminar:

* to meet me or
* eat any food or
* enjoy the nice surroundings
of Grand Hyatt Hong Kong or InterContinental Singapore

And I have plenty of students come on this way each year. Here you will get to personally meet me and learn face to face.

I think you Aussies have got it made especially if you get in now for the amazing early bird bonus!


Because the seminars are in two different countries and I am an American, let me put everything into US Dollars (:

  • All you pay is a simple one-off fee of US$3,388.00 up-front (less for early birds)

  • No percentage of profits. No reporting to me. Everything you make you keep

This makes it really simple and straightforward for us both – and I hope affordable for you.

Believe me, it is cheap for knowledge that could make a real difference to your trading outcomes even for other trading methods! And remember, all you ever pay me is $3,388.00. 

All your lifetime earnings from the system are yours to keep no matter how much you make over how many years.

There are no catches, gimmicks or hidden agenda – it’s a straight, honest deal -- - a one-off fee in return for complete training in arguably the most effective system ever to be created.

After the seminar there are no refunds (but see ‘first morning’ refund guarantee below) and under no circumstances will anyone be allowed in without paying this up-front fee. Please do not ask me about ‘pay later’ or installments – the answer will be no, and this will mark you out as someone without the resources to make this work for you in any case.

I hope that sounds fair. I have carefully thought it through to make it as honest and workable as I can for both of us.

So, if that’s ok with you, now is the time to order. I am only in Asia for these seminars and have no plans to teach again your side of the world in the near future, so for many traders it’s now or never. Sadly that's a fact most new traders don't last much more than 6 months in the markets without good trading methods. I can say that at least half of the traders in my Sydney June 1996 are still trading today. I get letters many years later from students. The Turtles method is the best basis to start off with.

Also, this is a strictly ‘first come,  first served’ deal and I expect the seminar to sell out very quickly. The number of places is strictly limited. Remember, this is a one-off. There are no planned repeats. This is, as they say, a once in a lifetime opportunity to learn the original and genuine Turtle system from one of the original Turtles who is an acknowledged expert and long-time successful trader.
