I have two ideas.
One is just for fun. Maybe you can have a poll on your web to poll the market setiment of current market from the visitors. It would be fun to watch how many people are bears or bulls. :)
2. Maybe you can share one or two trade and follow up with it closely. Not every day, but at some important days where most of us might be confused of what to do about the stock/option. Just like a virtual trade. I believe that will help us a lot on learning what the professionals think and do at the critical turning points.

BTW, I really enjoy your style and learned a lot!!!

Thank you very much for all the time and efforts!

Jeff,
My husband and I are in week 6 of the 3 Day Live Online course. We have been listening to you for 4 months on MastersTalk and (finally) we understand! Gosh, that learning curve was a b--ch! We can't wait to listen to your Advanced Options trading rooms.
As for the blog, I check it everyday for stock "leads". Keep 'em coming. I think the video idea is great. Sometimes my attention get lost in a long post.

Jeff,

I check your blog sight several times throughout the day. I think you cover a wide range of excellent topics from education to stock picks to trading pychology...all which I enjoy greatly. It is obvious that you put a lot of time into this blog. Of course, everyone likes to see what an experienced individual as yourself is trading to help develop their styles (for those that are into the short-term trades)...but I enjoy all of your posts. It helps keep me going until I can listen to the following weeks Master Talk!!!

Thanks for all your hard work and dedication to assisting us in learning.

Damn I’m just here to see what Jeff had for lunch today! LOL Jk. Good stuff I would like see a few trades not just the trades but the whole analysis about the trade and why you took it. I mean its great to see what all your trading (the more the better) but I think I would get more out of it if you took one or two specific trades and explained the whole thought process of the trade (breakout, strike price, Greeks, Volatility and so on). Keep on the site its coming along great.

ps I had a shrimp quesadilla today if that matters. Lol

I can't stress enough how much I appreciate your time on this blog. Webcast would be an amazing idea. Keep up the great work.

Jeff,

Excellent job in your blog. Thanks for coming up with new ideas to improve your great blog!! I would like to see a trade where you considered you learned a lot (might be a lossing trade) and take us to the way you analyzed the trade before/after you enter. I think this will help us with money management. Also, somehow get us involved so you can see what we are thinking and comment on it.The webcast would be of great value.

Keep up the good work.

Jeff,

I think attendance would be up if I were to recommend this site to everyone I know who could benefit from it, but selfishly, your blog is just too valuable for that. Those of us who've had the pleasure and good fortune of studying under you have vastly more knowledge than those other traders who think they can pick up just any old options book and start firing away.

I can't really explain why overall attendance is down, but I can tell you I visit here multiple times a day and am never disappointed. I'm sure every one of your regulars feels that way.

I know it's in direct conflict with your trading psychologist's advice, but i do think that we should continually visit price pattern examples here of potential setups.

I used to blindly take those trades, but now they serve as examples to fine-tune what I'm looking for in flags, pennants, triangles, etc. The more you see, the more comfortable you are.

Thanks to your insights and style, I have been building my watchlists (organized by sector...i know i'm a little too anal) and am contantly finding trade opportunities now. The more I trade and listen to you, the more comfortable I am getting.

This is a rambling post, but just wanted to let you know the impact you have had on this one trader, and i'm sure there are many here who feel the same way.

My suggestions are these: More on how to trade (volatility, intermarket analysis), more trade fish, and keep up the commentary. It's truly sensational.

Thanks again for all your hard work.

Hi Jeff,
I strongly agree with ALL of the above comments. I have gotten more out of this blog than you can believe and reading it is painless because it's all so timely and entertaining and I can finally say that I am profitable. I can't imagine why attendance would be down, but who cares. It might be cool to have a few different supplementary subject lists that would encourage posts; perhaps one by stock ticker, one by concept subjects, etc. and always move the ones with the most recent comments to the top to increase relevance. Thanks for all that you do. WDJD was a classic!
Thanks again,
Debbie Davis

Hi Jeff,

Here is a response to suggestions for the Blog. I posted this to your blog also.


(1) CURIV Search
I am curious to know if INVESTools database searches will allow a search to be written for optionable stocks where the curiv is in the low percentile of its range. If not then why not add this field to the database as you have the data anyway. Creating a search for low curiv candidates would be awesome and would generate many blog dscussions.

(2) Spreads & Implied Volatility
I just came across an excellent lay-mans explanation on TOS website on implied volatility. I am sure you have seen this also.
Basically it explains how to de-rate the annualized implied volatilty down to say 1 month and calculate the probability of a spread being in/out of the money at expiration. This makes a lot of sense to me but I have played with this yet. Have you experimented with this theory and used it to your advantage for credit spreads/iron condors. I would be interested in thoughts on this either on the blog or in a trading room.

(3) Vega Hedging ?
From reading the blog I see alot of people going with OTM options for high probability trades. You mentioned that you don't use stops for OTM and that makes sense, but I am curious is there a way to hedge volatility going against you if its practical. I am buying the Natenburg book so perhaps there may some material in there on this topic

(4) Intermarket analysis
One of the others mentioned this also. I am not sure if its of interest to but I wouldn't mind seeing a few topics on intermarket analysis say using relative strength within sectors. It would be a good educational topic I think

Thanks for the great blog!
In some ways I feel like we are Jedi Knights in training, That is we are still learning to harness the force so to speak :)

Hi Jeff,

Hope you are having a fulfilling weekend! I was astonished when I read that your attendance was down, as well. I check your site multiple times daily, and am never let down. You provide us with such valuable knowledge and insight - I'm afraid of where I'd be without it!

That said, my favorite part of the site is the lessons and the watchlists. Maybe a little about how you find stocks? The market is overflowing with opportunities to make (or lose) money, but what method do you use to narrow it down? Industry? Volume? Emily's Search on Investools? < haha! : )

It's clear how much you've inspired and helped numerous people through your blog. Let us know if there's anything we can do to help your site, as well!

Thanks again, Jeff.

Jeff,

I check this website many times throughout the day as it has been an enormous source of information for me. I am in month 8 of my training and I learn everyday from your postings. Getting stock tips from you is a bonus but I mainly read to learn how to become a better trader. I just returned from the 3 day live last week and I plan on sending out this link to everyone that was in my class. Thanks for keeping this going!
