The SEC makes it clear....we are going to pay more, here's our strategy

Today I read a news article from our trading partner Doc Severson at Trading Concepts about a proposed Securities and Exchange Commission rule that could boost trading costs.

Here’s the deal:

Due to market instability, the SEC wants to require all trading venues – exchanges, automated trading systems and dark pools – to submit alternative plans for operations in case of a system breakdown. In its proposal, the SEC said estimated initial costs could be as high $242 million, with another $191 million in annual costs.

So, if approved, who will these added fees eventually fall on?

Yep, you guessed it . You and I ... the traders.

Remember how Doc Severson’s first training video  showed you what government involvement is doing to the market? 

Well, as you can see, more regulations just keep lining up. Just about every big player in the trading world has been affected. Again, if you’re using strategies that worked in the past and now aren’t seeing the profits you want, your lack of success isn’t all your fault. You simply need to adjust your approach to accommodate today’s market.

Believe me, you’ll be happy you did.

The Truth About Today’s Market

No doubt, we both understand the agony of making trading decisions. Especially when the market is moving in a way we have never seen before.

Want to know what I’m talking about?

You see, Doc Severson compiled research from the last 100 years to show the market is moving in a way that’s never happened – EVER - throughout history.

This little-known shift began in early 2013 ... and is creating lots of frustration for traders today.

Here’s the bottom line:

If you’ve been using strategies that worked in the past… and NOW aren’t seeing the profits you want, it isn’t your fault.

Watch this.

Could the right strategies from years past now be the wrong approach?

After watching this video, I think it’s possible.

Why the Market Should Pay More Attention to Sports and Poker

Did your coach ever tell you not to signal before you made a move, or do you know why it’s so important to have a good poker face if you’re trying to bluff? It’s because it’s pretty hard to trick a person that can see what you’re going to do next. What does this have to do with trading the markets for consistent profit?


The market signals before just about every move it makes.


So, why doesn’t this make the market incredibly easy to predict? It’s because most traders don’t know the market’s “tell.” That’s why you learn to watch your opponent’s position in sports, or to watch your opponent’s pulse and face in poker. If you don’t know that a nervous twitch means your neighbor is trying to bluff you with his pair of twos, then how do you know he doesn’t have the cards? On the other hand, if you know his “tell”, you can anticipate his bluff even if the rest of the table thinks he’s got a strong hand. Doc Severson spent a lot of time (and a lot more money) looking for those signs in the market, but as James Bond remarks in Casino Royale, “It was worth it to discover his tell.”


Learn the Market’s Tell
 

After years of study and testing (he was an engineer, after all), Doc Severson found a way to see the market “signal” before it makes a move. He used it to position himself before the 2013 S&P rally, and he is seeing the market signal another big move now. He’s already preparing his positions for this move, and he wants to show you how to anticipate them as well.

Trading Commodities with any Size Account

So many traders shy away from trading commodities because their account balances are just to small to buy and sell oil contracts. They think the only option they have is to buy and hold the most popular ETF's like GLD, SLV or USO. But that couldn't be further from the truth. The guys at Trading Concepts have developed a system that can earn you a regular pay check trading commodities....and equities and currencies as well, no matter what size account you have.

And when we think about why you didn't enroll the last time this course was offered, the only reasons I can come up with is you're either not interested in learning how to make monthly income trading options [with any size account] or, you simply couldn't afford it.

When our trading partner Doc Severson closed OptionsMD, he received a number of inquiries from people who said they would have loved to have been a part of the mentoring program, but couldn't afford the investment.

With college tuitions, saving for retirement, increasing job loss, mounting debt, and many other concerns, Doc's always taken pride in being a part of the solution.

So in a last minute effort to help those who are struggling with getting results, but are committed to change their financial situation with options, Doc has reopened OptionsMD until midnight tonight with one big change.

You still get all the mentoring, bonuses, and the one year performance guarantee. But, now you can get all of this with a new payment plan and a much lower monthly investment.

Only open until midnight tonight..... Click to enroll today

No reason to get left behind....The OptionsMD Mentoring Program is now available

2013 will go down as the year that options trading became "the buzz" in the stock market world. And regardless of the claims made by the internet promoters or the talking heads and their guest on TV they sure didn't make it any easier to understand options trading or even where to get started.

One of our trading partners, underground Options trader Doc Severson, is opening a new version of his mentoring program. The OptionsMD Mentoring Program, and it is now available for the first time since he sold out over 6 months ago.

Whether you are new to trading options or you are an experienced fund manager you need to get on board for you or your clients sake.

If you know anything about Doc, then you know he's doing things with options trading that most people have never even heard of. And now, he's offering his mentoring program with an unbelievable one year 100% money back PLUS $500 performance guarantee.

This is the LAST time this year that Doc is offering a bonus package this huge. And the best part of all is the unlimited support provided by Doc and his staff. Who else can you turn to where you can get personal, unlimited support from this type of trader?

Lot's of talk out there about equities putting in a top at these levels. And professional fund managers aren't dealing with it on their own, why should you? If you're struggling with a topping market or not making the amount of money you think you should be making, there's nothing better than to be mentored by someone that really has a strategy that works no matter which way the market turns.

This is the first release like this where traders are sending us emails trying to get us to have Doc release it early to them. Because of the personal support that Doc and his team provide it truly is offered to a limited number of traders. That's not some marketing ploy we all see everyday on the internet. Once it's closed, it's closed.

Atlas Pipeline Partners (NYSE: APL) today reported adjusted earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA"), of $67.7 million for the first quarter of 2013, driven primarily by a continued increase in volumes across the Partnership's gathering and processing systems.
