WITH HINDSIGHT TRADING, SUCCESS IS YOUR ONLY OPTION.
All testimonials are offered by students without any compensation. As is the case with any testimonial, past performance is not indicative of future performance or success. People who trade can and do lose money.
Nothing is more powerful than to hear it from the mouth of those who have gone though our course and use it daily. These are testimonials and success stories from actual Hindsight students. Also note that when a student says they "went 4/5" that means they were positive (Profitable) in 4 out of the 5 trades they placed. The number of points indicates the amount of profit they made on their trades. Each one (1) Point = 10% to 20% (profit depending on the index they traded and what broker they use).

Colin,
Per our discussion the other day, I wanted to share some thoughts and comments about the group at Hindsight… I recently was introduced to another group that does similar education on trading the S&P mini’s market… I only spent a few conversations with them trying to understand what made their program different from Hindsight’s and whether I should give it a shot, but I can tell you more than anything it re-enforced my appreciation for your team… The system was interesting and appeared to be similarly successful, but the personalities were all wrong… They were very aggressive and almost somewhat arrogant in their approach of providing information about their program…
It clicked quickly with me about all the discussions I had with Jon D, John N, Connie and You along the way and how professional and patient each person was in every conversation… No one ever questioned why we asked questions and always to tried to provide an honest and transparent answer… Although I got burned out and had to take a break, it was never because of anything specific that anyone did at Hindsight… I just couldn’t get to consistent success and needed some time away… When I re-connected with Jon last week, he didn’t say anything judgmental or push, his basic response was how can we help you get back on track… Also, one of the first things he said was: “How is Lisa”… Not only have we not talked with anyone at Hindsight in about 4 months, but Lisa has been away from it at least 9 months and he still remembers her and that we were doing it together (and so did you when we talked)… That says volumes about how you guys approach your business and truly care about the people you try to teach…
I have to tell you it’s a very pleasant relief in today’s business world to deal with a group that is truly passionate and dedicated to helping others succeed (in whatever it is)… You guys could’ve easily written us off after we quit (you had our original tuition) and moved on… But rather, you welcomed us right back in…
I am going to give it my best again… But whether it works this 2nd time around or not, I want you guys to know you will always have 2 big fans in NC… You have an exceptional team and should feel very proud of what you are trying to accomplish… Please share with your team how appreciative we are for their professionalism, dedication and genuine pursuit of others success…
Respectfully,
Todd M. (and Lisa echos the same sentiments as well)

Colin & Jon
I want to say thanks for opening up the room this morning, that was great. The information shared and exchanged is fantastic. I was all pumped up when I left. Hindsight is an incredible place to be. You guys care about the success of your students & I believe that if we fail you feel that you failed. That is - unfortunately to say - rare in this day and age. I am glad to be a part of it and I will continue to work toward success.

Colin,
Plus 15 pts on remainders for the T1 short we took at 9:42 this AM. First time I’ve ever gotten that much out of a trade… I LIKE IT!!!!!!
FYI, I want you guys to know that the reason I am glad to talk to these guys is because I believe in what you do, and I’ve always fancied myself as having the abundance mentality. It truly makes me happy to hear when someone in the room makes 2 or 3 points, even when I’ve had a down day. My thinking is that if we can all be successful then the party in Tahiti is just that much bigger, and more fun.
I truly wish that I had started this years ago. Nevertheless, I fully intend on paying for my son to go through the school as a college graduation present when he gets out because I think that Hindsight will afford him the best opportunity to be successful in life, and that is the best endorsement I can give, because I love my children second only to God, (and yes I struggle with that, but I think He understands that weakness in me.)
Have a great day!

John,
I wanted to share my morning trade with you. I got into the trade off the bounce of ICE. I had a 1.25 point stop 2 ticks below the head and the move came within one point before moving in my direction. I scaled out at 1.5 pts. at the T1 short level and I kept my stop. The move went in my favor for 2.5 points then came back within one point of my entry. As you said, I wanted to see where it went, as all indications were still long and the fresh cross on the long term prior to open was rather compelling. I stayed in the trade and put my profit target 1 point below UFT. I could have put it 2 ticks below, but I wanted to make sure and get the fill as this was the first time I had attempted and stayed in a trade for this duration. Bottom line, I hit my target and had a 5.5 point trade. What an awesome feeling. This one trade alone was the weekly target that I had given myself.
THANK YOU!

In the summer of 2008, I was downsized from my company. With 30 years experience, I decided to start my own executive search firm only to learn soon after we were entering the worst recession since the stock market crash of 1929.
It was a rough start; however, I decided to put everything I had into making it successful. While motivated to succeed, in the fall of that year, I heard a commercial for Hindsight Trading (HST). It was intriguing enough that I eventually called. After performing due diligence on the company including running a credit check, I was impressed enough to sign up.
Over a year later, while I learned a great deal and had some periodic and moderate success, I made no overall progress, and went into the red. While I received decent training, I made a great deal of mistakes by often changing my trading strategy whenever I lost a few trades in a row, and never really focused on perfecting two or three trades as I was taught to do.
Along came the new owners of HST. I began to attend online classes and the trading room. After a couple months, I realized the new owners had a significantly advanced understanding of how the market moves. I contacted them a couple times for advice, received exactly what I asked for and began to put it to the test. That helped me move in the right direction, yet I still was not making the overall progress I needed for long-term success.
It was only at this time that I realized a couple of limiting traits about myself. One was that I had a desire for the owners to believe my trading skill set was stronger than it actually was; I was embarrassed to let them think I was not doing as well as I should have after nearly two years. Secondly, since my original tuition was paid to the previous owners, I assumed I would not receive the hands-on attention that I sorely needed all this time.
Well, I am glad to say that I was wrong on both counts. When I discussed my failings and needs, I was not criticized or berated. Their only goal was to provide me the training, focus and direction I needed. I am currently in a “lab rat” simulation plan and doing extremely well, having won the vast majority of my trades over the past few weeks. And I am being held to task, including establishing a pre-market trading strategy each day and sending it in before market open. I also began receiving encouragement and ongoing, one-on-one training from two of the owners. I am now at a point where I have the confidence to go live; my emotions are in check knowing I have the strategies to win more trades than I lose.
Day trading should be looked upon as a business in and of itself, yet it should be fun and stress-free. With confidence in my trading strategy after seeing real results, I’m excited to execute and accelerate my plan to the point where my workday consists of a couple hours of morning trading, then doing whatever I want the remainder of the day.
I feel fortunate to have found Hindsight when I did. Not only was my timing excellent but also I found a firm with integrity and knowledge.
Best,
Bill S.
----------------------------------------
Between 1996 and 2008 I founded three major companies. In all three instances I had to work 12 hours a day, seven days a week, I had to borrow lots of money, live in constant stress, deal with employees and government bureaucracy, compete with all the other products out there, travel, and sell, service and warranty the products we sold, worry about what I would do if things turned down, collect money from our dealers and overall haggle with rude and irresponsible people (many who were always looking for any angle to cheat us). I discovered trading about five years ago and decided when I get out from under these businesses that I would become a professional futures trader. I knew I would have to pay the price to learn this profession, but the benefits were great: work anywhere in the world on my time without having to deal with anyone. I had no experience with the markets and frankly thought it was all way above my head. My vision was that I would work from my home office about four hours per day and have the ability to make as much money as I wished for as long as I wished and have the freedom to live the life I wanted on my terms. I thought this type of lifestyle had to be too good to be true, however I knew people doing it. I tried two programs designed to train me as a trader and all of them were constantly trying to get in my wallet. I learned nothing from these programs and went back to the grind of work for about a year.
As I was driving home from a sales trip I heard an advertisement for Hindsight Trading on Sirius Radio. I decided to call the number provided and a representative called me back. We discussed my vision of becoming a trader and talked about the opportunities in the market today. I decided to sign up for the program and commenced attending classes. I put in about five hours per week and in about four weeks I understood the basics of trading. In eight weeks I was well on my way of being able to earn money through trading and in 16 weeks I have learned enough that if my businesses went away today I could make a living trading the markets. My plan is within six months to be trading full time and I'm in the process of selling my companies. My schedule is the following: I wake up at about 6:00 am [Central Time], prepare for the trading day, trade between 8:30 am and 11:00 am and the remaining of the day is all mine. However, I have developed a passion for learning more about the markets and trading that in the afternoons I find pleasure in studying the Hindsight system. Believe it or not you can live this lifestyle through trading and I believe it is much less risky and stressful than being in the other businesses I have been depending on. Further, the people at Hindsight Trading are committed to my success, I can talk directly to them if I have a question, their hearts are in the right place, they know what they are doing, and their system is extremely user friendly. I have learned so much in such a small amount of time. I highly recommend to anyone that is interested in become a serious trader to check into Hindsight Trading.

It's been about 6 weeks or so since I began this journey into day trading. It has always been something that sounded intriguing, and something I wanted to explore, but years past and I never explored that curiosity. One of my favorite sayings is "In one success a thousand failures lie forgotten. In one refusal to try, a thousand successes prematurely die." So am I glad I finally stopped refusing to try?...Well....I began to trade live last Thursday and as of today (Wednesday) I have gutted almost 20 points from the market...almost a 400% return on my money...are you joking?!?! Hindsight FLAT OUT ROCKS! I know you have had students with far better results from that, but for a “never-traded-before-and-never-knew-this-type-of-day-trading-existed-half-wit” such as myself,...I couldn't be more jacked! [excited] A Louisville Slugger wielded by a juiced up Bonds couldn't take this silly grin off my face. Thank you for everything. This journey has JUST BEGUN!”

For a long time I had been interested in learning about the stock markets so that I could take a more active role in my investments. I had some money in a 401K and an IRA, but I didn’t actively manage it. It seemed like all of the financial advisors were preaching the same advice, in up times and down, and that they didn’t seem to have any better grasp on where my money should go than I did.
When I was first introduced to Hindsight Trading, I viewed the introductory seminar with some interest, but it took some time of reflection and watching a rapidly deteriorating economy to decide that it was time to take some assertive steps. I had always understood the goal of investing was to buy low and sell high, but didn’t realize that the process could be done in reverse order. The idea of being able to short sell futures contracts was very interesting to me. I never approached this as a “get rich quick” scheme, as I was aware that most futures contract traders with that attitude quickly lost their investments. I viewed taking the course as more of an educational endeavor with the potential to get better returns than I could just letting the money sit in mutual funds, while at the same time understanding and managing risk. Being very conservative in nature, this was a big step for me. I enrolled in the Hindsight Trading course in March of 2008, and found the training and topic fascinating. The account setup process was very straightforward with the training materials provided by Hindsight. I anxiously awaited each class and took copious notes. I tried to incorporate the principles and strategies I learned into actual trades in my simulation account. I read everything I could find on the topic. In time, the techniques and skills came together and I began to make “simulated money” on a regular basis.
The knowledge gained from attendance at the Hindsight courses has helped my overall understanding of investing. Since the same principles of patterns with the futures markets have applicability in the broader markets, I used the insights I have developed in the course to guide placement of my 401K investments more wisely. By timing my move of money between stocks and other investment options, I saved 14 percent of profits with just one transaction in the last month. This would not have happened without the Hindsight training.
Even though the financial markets are in turmoil, my perspective has changed. Where before I watched with dread, I now see infinite opportunity. With personal discipline I have been able to realize more consistent profits, and I look forward to a prosperous future. I also have a different perspective about money as a result of the Hindsight training, and my wife and I are able to discuss financial issues more as a team than ever before. Overall, it has been a great experience, with the modest enrollment fee being money well spent. There are many “scam” training courses out there, usually at much higher cost, but Hindsight Trading is a real pearl.

I owned and operated a successful mortgage company and up until the end of 2007, that was my bread and butter. Housing market conditions quickly deteriorated and I found myself forced to make some career changing decisions. I was used to making a six figure income in real estate and had no desire to change my lifestyle with whatever direction I decided to go.
For quite some time, I felt drawn to the stock market, but never really considered it as an option because it always seemed out of my league. That was until I heard about Hindsight Trading from a good friend who went through the course earlier that year. He explained how well he was doing with his trading and when he told me he only traded for an hour a day, I started looking into it with a lot more than just curiosity. I wanted to find out if this really was as good as it sounded. I watched a sample trade they had and when I saw how quick they made $3,000 (it was less than 10 minutes), my first reaction was “this is too good to be true.” The more I found out on their site and read other testimonials, it really started to make sense. Hindsight Trading is really doing something completely outside of the box here.
The selling point for me was the emphasis Hindsight put on the mental side of trading. I like to consider the psychological aspects of everything I do so this really caught my attention. With a little research you can see that there are a billion trading systems out there. But if all it took was a system to make millions, my question was: why isn’t everyone doing this? The reality is that successful trading isn’t just as easy as “buying low” and “selling high.” If your head isn’t in the right place, your system doesn’t mean a thing. You can’t pull the trigger if you’re scared and if you’re overzealous or greedy, you’ll stay in your positions way too long until it bites you for a loss. I’ve heard Hindsight say multiple times that if you’re not humble with your trading, the market will humble you on your way out. It’s this kind of information that every trader should know, but doesn’t give it any thought until it’s too late and they’ve blown out their account. Then they say – Hindsight is always 20/20 … I’m just glad I have the 20/20 “Hindsight” vision now versus when it’s too late!
I made the leap of faith and went through the Hindsight course in October 2007. This was one of the best financial decisions I’ve ever made. I can honestly say that I can read any market and with my knowledge of Hindsight’s indicators (their ability to predict the action is seriously amazing), I execute every trade with confidence and skill. My experience with Hindsight has taught me that if I trade with discipline, follow my rules and patiently wait for the Hindsight Approved Trade parameters to line up, I’m going to make A LOT of money in a very short period of time.
You may think you just teach people how to trade successfully, but you really taught me how to take control of my financial future in ways most others only dream about. All I can say is THANK YOU Hindsight! You guys are awesome. Thanks for letting me get on this ride with you!!!

I want to thank you at Hindsight for this incredible experience known as daytrading. Before last October, when my brother introduced me to this, I honestly had never heard of daytrading . As I started trading I knew nothing at all. The terminology was foreign as was the processes. But, even though I was lost and confused I was EXCITED. I found myself going to bed earlier just so I could wake up and trade- I even dream about this stuff. Just for fun, I even took my laptop to the dentist office with me as I waited for my root canal just so I could trade.
I have found that I am pretty grounded in the rules I have set up for myself. I wake up and write down my goals for the day. They look like this: trading 7 contracts/ $3,500 goal = 60% or $2,100 by 8:30am < 5 trades. This really works for me because it allows me to write out my goals and then to look at them throughout the morning.
My favorite trades seem to change a lot. Depends what I'm working on that day or week. But, I know I can win a dbl bottom/dbl top or the infamous pocket play, and I always look to surf [examples of Hindsight Approved Trade setups]. Once I see my trade I'm good about getting in-not wasting time or entry point. I have learned to stay in trades longer because I love the feeling of getting filled. I used to enjoy 4-5 ticks [8% to 10% profit] but I can honestly say with trend lines and support and resistance I look for 1.2-1.5 points [24% to 30% profit] per trade.
Since Nov. 8, I have been in the triple digits as far as % of weekly return now 10 out of the 15 weeks with the past month or so pulling in an average of 350-400%.
My first live day was exciting and nerve racking, I was even a little scared to buy/sell. Eventually I found my groove and went 5/6 up 6 points [+120% his FIRST day trading live!]. I want to say thanks to you guys at Hindsight-this stuff works and it's great.

I just pulled 5 points [+100%] on the way down and 3.5 points [+70%] on the way back up that 6:30 announce for a total of 8.5 points [+170%]. What a way to start the day. You and Jason must just love life.... I want to thank you two for what you've taught me.... Hindsight Trading has really given me a great opportunity to change my life. Thank you again---have a great weekend.

I had just graduated from college and got married before I started as a student with Hindsight Trading. I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in finance and accounting, and my favorite classes in school always had to do with investing. I had no real experience with trading before learning from Hindsight. I was amazed to learn how much potential for success there is with trading futures on the e-minis!
While attending the Hindsight online classes and learning the strategies taught, I was able to simulate trades with paper money before jumping in the market with real money. As a result of my personal statistics, I learned which [Hindsight Approved Trade] strategies I had a high rate of success on, so I started trading those specific strategies with real money. I started out small and have applied the concept of gradual addition as I reached certain goals, and thus adding more money to trade with. I usually just trade for about 2 hours of the day, and have been able to capture insane profit from just a small amount of time every day.
The Hindsight program is priceless! They teach how to manage your emotions and create rules for yourself to maximize your profit and minimize losses, which is the most important aspect of trading to learn in my opinion. I cannot imagine the years and money it would have taken me to gain the success I have had without the Hindsight Trading program. Hindsight has given me all the tools I need to be a successful trader, and I am on my way to achieve bigger and bigger financial goals.

----------------------------------------
I have been having some great success lately and its all thanks to Hindsight! I had struggled with trading for a while and then something clicked! I started winning 80%+ of my trades and the winnings way out weighed the losses! I don't think that there is any one trade that I like. I like them all! I play a lot of breakouts, bounces, stair steps and once in a while when the stars align I play a HYLINE [examples of Hindsight Approved Trade setups]! I have a lot of rules and I stick to them! I only play HYLINE’s after a fresh cross or if it's a fresh cross and a HYLINE at the same time, those are money! I consider myself a pretty conservative trader and I don't make a trade that isn't in my rules! I win most of my trades but there are always learning trades! My advice to any and everyone is this, make rules, stick to them and never get emotional!!! I truly believe that anyone with the desire and patience to be a great trader, can become one! Take your time and learn from the process! Keep a journal and read it often! Rule number one, have fun! This is the opportunity of a lifetime! They say that great opportunity will visit everyone twice, so you need to decide if this is your first or second time! If I can pull 2 to 5 points [+40% to +100%] a day, everyone can! Thank you Hindsight Trading!

I got home from [a vacation] pretty late last night so I slept in this morning. Ended up sitting down about 9:30 to trade and so far I'm up 2 points [+40%] on the Russell and 3 points [+30%] on the S & P. You guys are awesome! I can't imagine where my wife and I would be right now with out Hindsight. I am looking forward to this year. I am expecting insanity and so far I have been seeing it! What a ride this is! Thanks again!

Hi Guys,
I want to check in and let you guys know what’s going on with my trading. I had a major psychological breakthrough on Wednesday Oct 29 in the evening each of the three trading weeks this month has shown strong improvement from the previous one. My stats are as follows, not including commission:
Nov 3-7: 8/16 -.75 points [-7.5%]
Nov 10-14: 13/17 +12.375 points [+123.75%]
Nov 17-21: 12/14 +24.25 points [+242.5%]
My win percentage has climbed each week and I feel like my results so far this month are a confirmation that I’ve finally turned a corner. I’ve been having incredible gains since going live in July but the lack of commitment to well-defined rules made it impossible to hang on to those gains for long. This strategy will work no matter how many contracts I trade so if I continue to make this work I won’t have to change a thing. I’ve made a personal decision as to how much is enough before I enter each trade and it based strictly off of points, not dollars.
Thanks for everything you guys do. I love every bit of this!
Regards,
Chris P.

Hi Guys, I meant what I said earlier about how I believe the things you are teaching in class are changing my life. There is literally unlimited potential for income through what you are teaching but more importantly, I feel like this is a means to achieve self-mastery. Not only will applying these principles increase my income, it's changing my perspective on life. The discipline I am trying to learn in order to master trading is also helping me to accomplish other things in my life--spiritually and physically. As I progress through the program I want to be better about keeping in good contact with you. I set a goal this week to email you at least once per week to give you an update from here on. I think you are a superb teacher. You are positive and upbeat and it sets the tone for class. I have also been impressed by how professional you are (all THREE of you) in running Hindsight Trading. I get the sense that you all truly love what you do and it's very motivating. I enjoy class very much and I hope that we continue to stay in contact for a long time to come. I am grateful for my involvement in the Hindsight Trading program. Thanks again for everything,

I've truly enjoyed my time with Hindsight Trading and you have changed my life for the better for ever. Last November when I joined your organization I had the opportunity to put my day job on the back burner for a while, and I have really pushed it to the limit. I need to put a little more time into one last push before I totally abandon it in favor of your type of lifestyle. I'm trading live now and doing pretty well.

I have to tell you today was my first 100% day!! I went 6/7 only loosing one trade that I got wicked out on that did go in my favor. This weeks classes have been a real help. I was able to read the divergence along with watching volume and the HYSTEP [one of our 4 proprietary indicators] to win almost every trade today, just how you said in class. I am very excited for the future and the big plans Hindsight is coming out with. Ben is going to have some good competition next week! Have a good weekend.
Jake U.
----------------------------------------
I just wanted to send you both a note letting you know how happy I've been with the HYLINE Power Trade strategy [a Hindsight Approved Trade setup]. It took me some time to get used to manipulating trend lines... all while keeping an eye on divergence, resistance, support, CENTER POINT... in conjunction with the other Hindsight approved trades. I really feel comfortable with it now and it has been a winning strategy for me.
This morning (7:30 - 9:00) was my most perfect day, with regard to wins, that I've ever had since I began trading. By 8:48am I had executed 7 Power Trades with the following results... 7/7 +6.6 [+132%] (I also use the PREMA, in addition to the HYLINE, to help determine my entry... "pre 9:00am.")
I am probably one of your more conservative students with regard to when I jump out of a trade (to secure profits) and rarely stick with a channel surf. Had I stayed in longer on some of the trades this morning, I could have been up even more. Any way, I just wanted to thank each of you again for helping me see the HYLINE Power Trade that seems to be working out so well for me. Keep up the good work. You guys are the greatest.
Best regards,
Gary H.
