Good afternoon all,

I understand I might be a little late to this. I first learned about steady trade about a month ago and am trying to play catch up from the beginning while also getting all of the education out of each episode that I can. After listening to the contest I must say, I was highly disappointed in the attitudes of the early traders. Some of their comments made me feel like they didn’t completely understand what I felt was the whole purpose of the contest. That being said I would hope you adjust the judging of each trader from “Money Made” to how well there understanding the material and your assessment of how good of a trader they can be in the future. I hope you continue the competition for years to come and that one day I may be a part of it.

Thank you and have a great day!

Nate

Hi guys absolutely love the podcast. Thanks so much for taking the time to do it. In this episode Stephen mentioned that buying breakouts is only a good strategy in some situations and often can just be a fakeout. Would you be able to elaborate further on when buying a breakout is a good strategy and when it’s more likely to just be a fakeout. Thanks heaps.

Would love to be in a paper trading challenge. I think the contestants learned a lot. I do think it’d be better to keep it to newbie traders. And, I think the scoring of different aspects besides just profits is a good thing (though I can see it would be rather time consuming). Like: points for getting at least 10% gain or more.– looking for the better set ups.

I have enjoyed watching the Steady Trades podcasts and really enjoyed the Paper Trading challenge. I think it is a good idea to carry on with the paper trading challenge. They are a great learning experience for the people lucky enough to get into the challenge. I would like to throw my hat into the ring to be considered as a contestant for the next challenge. Keep up the great work guys.

I think the paper trading challenge should 100% happen again and I would LOVE to be a part of it! Being able to learn and sharpen my trading skills would be awesome!
Plus the chance to be mentored by you guys throughout the competition would be amazing!

I would love to be apart of this paper trade competition. For both the experience that I would get from the coaching, and to be apart of the camaraderie that is established between the mentor and the student. I have a slight idea of what I am doing, after watching Tim in both the You Tube vids and the webinars that I was able to catch. Just need something to help push me over the edge to learn what skills I need to be a more confident trader.

Hello!
I have watched three of Tim’s live webnair’s now. I really like the way Tim teaches and explains trades. I am in Tim Skyes challenge. A opportunity to do a challenge like this would a great way to help me learn. I have made few trades and my record is not good.

Ya’ll for sure should do another paper trading challenge. Watching the contestants grow, and learn helped me a lot as a trader. As ya’ll say your podcast is for the newer trader, and getting to see some newer traders learn the patterns and become profitable was really inspiring and just makes me want to study even harder. I would love to be apart of the next paper trading challenge! I learned about penny stocks in November 2018, and since then I have been watching all of Tim Sykes videos on YouTube and I have listened to all your podcast! I really want to be mentored by Tim and Stephen. They taught their students a lot, and I know being apart of this challenge would teach me so much. Thank you for all the free content ya’ll put out, and I can’t wait till the next podcast comes out!

I think that an annual paper trading contest would be outstanding. It really helps people to focus on learning, trading and being successful. You can then have a STT Paper Trading Hall of Fame where rah winner is enshrined. We can learn about them, and you can periodically follow up to see how they are currently doing in their trading.
Of course I would love the opportunity to participate, who wouldn’t?

I think you guys also learned a lot from this last competition about what not to do, and what can be done better (as far as shorting rules, not “cheating”, PDT, etc…)… So I’ll leave that up to you… But – I would Love to be a part of the next paper trade challenge… Like the person before said, I have been actively paper trading on TOS (sorry) for 8 – 10 months now, and been with Sykes MMP for the same time… On paper – I started with $5,000, and am now at $110,000… I don’t cheat, I “score” my losses as well, and I keep a very detailed journal. I am sooooo ready to start trading with real $$$!!! However, I have a biz to sell before I can do that (was my plan all along)… Well, the biz is now for sale, and I am still immersed in the markets every single day, and still paper trading in real time daily, and as soon as I can, I will be opening a real $$$ account, and start my retirement funding! (I am 60)… Please consider me for your next competition, as I am confident I can win!… and Learn!… and I would Love to try out SST during this time, so I can be ready for that as well, once the real $$$ start trading.

Hello, I am interested in becoming a contestant for the next paper trading contest. I’ve been studying daily for about a year now. I’m in the Tim Sykes mentor program. I’ve not yet made a trade yet but I feel like I’m ready and I know I can benefit from this competition.
