FT71,

I was listening to your 2nd "Chat With Traders" (published on July 24, 2016). You mentioned that since Stage 5 was now up and running that you were working on a substantial course that takes someone who is coming into futures (or trading in general) and carries them through the process of understanding all of the important pieces to actually come out as a professional trader on the other side. You said your goal now is to take those who want to pursue this and provide a standard process for coming out the other end, almost like someone who has a degree or something -- there is a minimum amount of knowledge that they should have.

I'm wanting to know how that is coming along and how someone "who wants to pursue this" can.

Hi ALC,

The program is now in development and will be ready soon. It will be released in pieces. I will post on this thread with Big Mike's permission when it is ready. You can also add your name here if you want to be notified (no spam) when it is ready: https://convergenttrading.com/

PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT @Big Mike IS UNAVAILABLE DUE TO HURRICANE IRMA FOR THE NEXT WEEK OR SO.

Video has been sent to him, but he is unable to upload due to poor internet and his cruise ship rerouting due to Irma.

Guys, sorry for the delay with the recording. Multiple cascade events related to traveling and Hurricane Irma, the end result was virtually zero internet.
