My trading & experience in trading has improved beyond recognition since joining The Trading Club. I was floundering about trying to make sense of the market & various strategies from different so-called experts, winning some trades & losing others, taking 1 step forward & 2 steps backwards but not really making any headway.
I would say that the biggest difference has been focus, not to mention the fact that for the first time in my trading experience, we have 2 successful simple proven strategies & a leader, Judy van Niekerk who is truly focussed, passionate & driven to helping our “Tribe of Traders” to be successful not only in trading but in life as well.
In my experience most people offering coaching & methods of trading are only interested in lining their own pockets & I consider myself fortunate to have found somebody like this.
With The Trading Club I now have cut my losses in trading and I have 2 strategies to focus on with straight forward rules and it works. My Pogo friends show again and again how they are being profitable. I have also learned that there is so much more to trading than just placing trades. And everything I am learning I also can apply other aspects in my life! I am very grateful for Judy´s and Tiny´s hard work and how they tirelessly give us support and mentor us forward!
I like Judy´s attitude to keep it simple stupid ! I like the Pogo family as we have a friendly attitude always! And I an realizing that I have potential to succeed in trading with the support of Judy & Tiny and the Pogo members
I would not be where I am today as I was losing money every month and now I have more in the account every month! I have my 5 year target and that´s where I am going with the support that I get!
I am absolutely sure that I would not be where I am today and now I have the Pogo platform, the support I need for the next 5 years and that is fantastic. I can recommend this group for everyone for people new to trading and more experienced traders! Together we will support each other so we´ll reach our 5 year targets! Pogo is so much more than trading!
It’s really great to be in the Trading club with like minded people. We support each other a lot.
I love the camaraderie and that everyone is very helpful (no competition).
Trading could be very lonely but it’s not when you are a member of the Trading Club.
The daily check ins that will “force/encourage” you to have a daily routine to follow every day.
All the mentoring, tech teaches, monthly analysis etc. are priceless.
My experience in trading prior to joining the Club was very negative, in terms of both mindset and results. I would look for trades/positions that weren’t there driven by greed and fear, invariably losing a lot more than I won.
Since joining the Club, I have an entirely new mindset and have enjoyed a more positive experience with improved results. Part of the journey for me has been not just about staying out of the market to avoid placing trades that “aren’t there”, but also adopting a “money manager” mindset. I still lose trades, but the majority of these are through basic errors driven by old habits. I know this because of tracking/analysis - another big positive about being in the Club. My success is not about finding more high probability winning positions, it’s about cutting out the low probability / losing ones. Sounds obvious, but it’s the clearest indicator yet to my improving outcomes.
I love being part of something. It’s a key driver/value for me. I had this “value” reinforced through various program tasks (as a result of being in the Club), and some brief but vital 1:1 time with Judy. To be in a group of like minded people on the same journey is very valuable to me. It also provides the right kind of pressure through scrutiny and accountability. I struggled as a “loner” in trading, so being in the helpful “family” atmosphere of the Club is very important.
Being in the Club has kept me in the process of learning to trade Forex, and learning to stop gambling the markets. I was close to quitting or taking a break, and a new door opened (into the Club) to give me renewed faith in my vision.
I would recommend it, and my own reasons for that recommendation are clear. All of us are different and we will have our own reasons, but if you are looking for improved, consistent and easily analysed results (regardless of your starting point), then I’m sure that joining the Club and adopting the basic trading strategies employed therein can only support your goals.
As the anniversary of my first ever POGO trade has just gone I felt the need to document my experience both with the EA and with The Trading Club.
I would like to say a HUGE thank you for the time and effort you have put into creating and further improving POGO. The time you have spent back testing years worth of data and refining the strategy has helped me enormously. And if that wasn't enough you came up with the outstanding idea of The Trading Club.
As you know my trading history prior to finding you was chequered to say the least. I had a good idea what I wanted my end goal to be but absolutely no plan to get me there. With POGO you have given me a fantastic tool but The Trading Club has taken me to another level.
Firstly It has given me a focus and direction that I never had before.
Secondly I have met a wonderful and inspirational group of people and my interaction with them on a daily basis keeps me firmly on track. This has improved my trading experience exponentially and I now can't wait to see what the charts are telling me instead of dreading opening my laptop and trying to make sense of it all.
I love wondering what the next wonderful gem you will come up with in The Trading Club will be and the on going support which you deliver with such enthusiasm and energy.
I know without a doubt that if I had not come across The Trading Club I would not have fulfilled my potential with POGO. Even though it is a fantastic tool we still need the skills you teach us in The Trading Club in order to benefit from its invention.
The one thing I would say to anybody who is thinking about The Trading Club is that the energy, enthusiasm and above all the accountability everybody displays means we all move forward as one and that to me is priceless.
Once again thank you to both you and Tiny for giving me an incredible opportunity and for making trading FUN. And that is something I never ever thought I would say.
The Trading club pushed me to do better as I was held accountable by my fellow traders and by my coach, which meant I had to keep this high standard. Trading certainly became more fun and of course an ongoing learning experience.I love the Monday morning live sessions held by Judy looking at the start of the week, what we should be looking at and what to avoid.
I love that it starts early so you can have the rest of your day and not wasting time. Making a watch-list starting Monday to Friday makes it look like second nature now.
I love that there is no judgement from the coaches or the peers. I love that everyone there is honest and honesty is actually appreciated to help us to avoid future mistakes made by others.
We also share happy results and that one give that fire to each one to do better and learn more to perfect our style of trading.
Finally I am a name there not a number and this makes the whole experience amazing!
The trading club is a fast route to success. when we procrastinate then we get a telling from the coach (in a caring way of course). Knowing that someone is always there watching what you do is quite comforting.
THE TRADING CLUB Keep emotions and mental state focus intact and are the most important ingredients to succeed on trading, Judy helps us to keep out of fear, to adopt good behaviour, good habits, she gave us helpful exercises such as how we manage drawdowns/risks/monthly targets achieve etcetera and very inspirational chats.
Thanks to the Trading Club, now I love to wake up early to do my daily analysis, I have found an inspirational reason why I am trading.
I love to be connected with other traders and don’t feel alone.
I love Judy and Tiny’s constant support.
I love the comments from our coaches “Goran, Gemma, Kevin” always helpful.
I love The Trading Club because my discipline is getting better
I will recommend it because the orientation given in the Trading Club gives me a map, where I know where to go, what to do if I am lost, what not to do, how to achieve my 5 years’ target, how to keep focus.
