How This Recession has turned out to be Such a Pleasant Surprise!

I'm an 'e-mini' trader; have been since early 2002. I recognized how valuable learning to trade them would be right off the bat, but I had no idea what it would mean IF a drastic downturn in the economy (like this DEPRESSION) were to come along. Learning that I can make money in the stock market whether the market goes UP or DOWN was exciting; that I could do it FASTER, with less RISK and at a far higher ROI than I ever saw investing in or even trading stocks, made me an 'e-mini trader' ….for life!

Then, September 2008 came along, then October…November…December…even January and a new year—yet the market was still going LOWER! Even a 1,000 point drop in the DOW in a single day—something that had never happened before in history!

Had I left my 'retirement dreams' invested in stocks in my mutual fund, I would be sitting here today looking at a 41% loss in value. (And, they say that the worst isn't over yet.) But, enough of that; there is (and can be) a much brighter side to this story, and I'd like to share a brighter thought or two with you.

We learned in our youth that " we …must be the captain of our own ship." How grateful I am to a young lady (actually a stranger), who asked me (another stranger) if I knew about trading e-mini's? My response was: "What's an 'e-mini'?"

I had been active in the stock market all of my adult life…investing a little here, a little there as I could afford to, but I had never even heard the word 'e-mini' before meeting her.

What she told me in a very brief conversation about how she makes money in the stock market, set me on a whole new life-changing course. I immediately closed my little business I'd run successfully (making a decent living) for over 25 years, so I could devote my full attention to learning how to trade e-mini's. I invited my employees to follow me. I've never looked back. I will forever be grateful to her for asking a stranger …if he knew about trading e-minis.

Now, I'm that stranger….asking you if you know about trading e-mini's? Whether you've ever heard the word before, (most folks still haven't!), or even if you are a stock day trader, and especially, if you are an investor, agonizing over the present state of your portfolio, would it inspire you if I tell you that we e-mini traders have had the best, most profitable trading conditions since last September that have ever been known in the history of the stock market? Yes, in deed!

We're a very conservative bunch: we don't take much risk and we know how to manage well even what risk we do take. We look at e-mini day trading as just a nice safe little 'home business' that we can do on our laptop…trading a couple of hours each morning.

Doesn't take much money: Minimum $2,000 to open a trading account, but I recommend keeping $10,000 in your account…so you can take advantage when market days like we've seen recently come along. We normally concentrate on just 'grinding out' an average of $500 a day for oneself–doing 2-3 trades each morning; but, recently we've had days when we made an entire month's income goal in single days—several times!

VOLATILITY…and especially, wide ranging volatility is why e-mini trading has been so profitable– whether the market is going UP or DOWN.

As I said in the beginning—I never would have even dreamed that such BAD times could also be such GOOD times. There truly is a 'silver lining' in this present BLACK, ominous cloud that's hanging over the stock market.

This stranger would like to do for you now…what that lady did for me back in early 2002. There's a ton of FREE information for you should you care to visit http://www.EminisBeatStocks.com The only thing there that I'm selling is my book that I've designed to be a 'road map' for anyone wanting to follow in my footsteps.
