I have ran and owned a multimillion-dollar chemical and water treatment company for years. I have owned real estate and have been successful in business — most people would have been satisfied with this.
But I always felt my money should be put to better and more productive use and started looking into all kinds of franchise opportunities and other businesses to invest in… but they all had one drawback – the financial investment was large but so was the investment of time… something I really didn’t have as a father of four.
I wanted to find a way to invest that would produce passive income for my future so that I could work as much or as little as I wanted and still live the lifestyle I desire. In this quest to build passive income, I began trading options over 23 years ago.
So after years of ‘hit or miss’ trading I started thinking about trading as a real business – buying and selling stocks and options as a ‘business’. I didn’t know if it could be done, but the idea intrigued me.
From 2008-2010 I decided to reeducate myself, and since then I have developed and tested over 200 different trading models.
I dismissed almost 150 different models because I found them to be not profitable.
Of the remaining 50 or so trading models I developed, I spent months and months back-testing them (also known as paper trading).
Many of them couldn’t stand up to back-testing and were eliminated.
However, I continued to test, refine and redevelop my trading models.
This refining led to 17 models that were promising enough to forward-test (trade using my own money). Some of these were not up to my high standards and were eliminated.
Of those 17 models, eight are successful.
Finally, after years of testing and 192 disregarded trading models, those eight models have been developed into legitimate money-making proprietary trading systems. I’m here to find JV partners and sell a selected few of these systems.
