    Michael, I learned more about charting with you in 12 minutes than I've learned in a week with thinkorswim tutorials. For the first time in three (3) weeks (yes, I'm a newbie), I'm starting to get excited. Looking forward to the journey.

    Thanks for the excellent video Michael! You are an awesome instructor and I am learning a lot, especially from the TOS platform. You are very easy to understand. My son TJ told me to look you up on you-tube. The TOS platform is very hard for a new trader to use and understand ( compared to Ninja Trader 8) which I've used for a few years. I am trying to trade for a living and to build my wife and my small retirement accounts ( less than 100k and 61 years old.) My wife wakes up often and is so stressed out and in tears about out retirement
    I've invested many thousands of dollars in a trading school but have not been real successful....yet. I will never give up and I will succeed. I am way better than I was when I first started. Just wanted to give you a special thanks for sharing you knowledge and expertise with all of the traders who follow you including myself. My God bless you!!!.

    Nice setup Micheal, Day trading stocks and commodities is very volatile way of trading and by just having a good setup does not determine an investment will be profitable, instead profitable trades mainly depends on the experience of the trader. That is why i actually just allow an experience trade manager to handles most of my stock/forex investments on my behalf.

I just signed up for thinkorswim as I’m having a hard time with ninja trader. I did get confused on the runner part of the video we’re you changed 1 to 4 in contracts then on the bracket setting section you changed 1 to 3 and not 4. I’m just a bit confused on that and would appreciate maybe an updated video on thinkorswim showing have to set up the runners. Thank you again for everything.
