Hi All,
Anyone has any experiences with trade-the-plan.com. I am really interested to learn Price action from him. I have sent few emails but no answer so far. Hope he is well.
Thanks in advance
Bill
Can you help answer these questions from other members on futures io?
Bill I'm a member of Trade The Plan and it will be well worth it to give Dan a call or send me your information in a private message and I will make sure he contacts you. In the last few weeks Dan has had 2 back surgeries and just recently moved into a new house. And he is all ways willing and ready to help. There are no issues as far as reliability when it comes to this guy.

Hey guys,
I'm also interested in learning some of his techniques. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. So far as I can see he only sells the indicators there is no trading course?
Hi Fsrcapital, I don't ...the reason...I had family emergency and I had to take care of family (multiple members of family), But I been there first 2 months of my post which was wonderful. Learn a lot (I was new to futures at that time). Please see these new videos I got them in the email couple days ago.
Before I get started I want to say this not a slight at anyone and everyone I speak about in my review has things that I have gleaned from them in my trading. Am I biased towards TTP? Yes of course because that is where I study at now and how I trade today. I do want to say that although I have helped at TTP as a room member, I am not compensated nor have I ever been compensated by TTP or any other person I talk about in my review here today. It is just my personal experience thus far in the game which is almost 6 years on now in the day game.
As we all know being a day trader can be one of the best and worst jobs in the world and what I mean by that is that when your winning you can feel invincible and sometimes put up some astonishing numbers and/or a heck of a string of winning trades. The flipside of that coin is that having a losing day, week or month can make you feel completely and utterly worthless as a human being and moreover blow an account of significant size as many of you know.
The unfortunateness of this is to be a successful day trader you can be in neither of these places and it took me a long time to figure that out and overcome these feelings as well as many mentors. We all come into this business all starry eyed thinking we will be millionaires in a short period of time or at the very least make a lot of money on short order. This is especially true if we are coming into this game with no previous knowledge of the inner workings of the markets. Well as we slowly find out, this game is not like that at all, it’s a grind. That’s what the market does; it attempts to grind people down and out of it while taking all their money and sending them home broken.
As I said it took me quite a long time to realize and attempt to control these feelings that seemed to be imprinted upon my DNA and baked into my primordial stew so to speak. I am talking about that knee jerk stuff, the stuff that is psychologically reactionary and will make you do the opposite of what you need to in order to stay in this game long term. Do I avoid these 100% of the time today, no of course not, even five years on now I still have bouts. The good news is that thru training and mentoring I am much better and this is happening less and less over time and I can tell you with 100% certainty if you don’t get these feelings under control; you will never make it in this game.
All and all I have sat with about 10 professional traders for a lengthy period of time in an attempt to learn this game. The funny thing I have found is that all mentors say the same thing when asked one single question. How do you make the majority of your money, from training folks or trading? Well it seems the answer is always the same, trading of course… (Right!). In any case I have had the opportunity to sit with some great ones, really good traders like Jim Dalton in some of his intensives, Anthony Drager over at the Market Delta trading room, Pete Davies (trading room for a minute), Jim Pendleton and I won’t leave out Rob Mitchell which I have to admit got me through me first TST combine (Rob is sharp).
That is not where I am now though. Since leaving the OTR and spending some time with another so called pro, I found out about Dan Roe from a previous member of the OTR whom I train and trade with today at TTP under the tutelage of Dan Roe. Dan has taught me what risk management is all about. He taught me how to fine tune my entries with the smallest amount of risk and where to take profits so I didn’t go home empty handed when the market offered something. He has taught me how to utilize things I avoided for years due to the complexity (i.e. Elliott Wave theory) and Fibonacci analysis. I have also learned about his mainstay Market Geometry and Volume analysis and how these are used to find the possible ends of major moves and 1-2 setups (Setups, now there is a word you don’t hear often ). Probably one of my biggest misconceptions about markets was being told by my first mentor that volume doesn’t matter, that was completely wrong. IMHO volume is one of the most important aspects for finding the ends of moves or support for further moves in a direction. In any case over the past two years and some change I have learned what trading is all about. I have watched as Dan has grinded it out day by day taking a sim account beyond what I would have imagined possible. That was how I figured out he was the real deal. Dan is the best trader I have seen operate (“THE BEST”) hands down of the 10 guys I have sat with. I am still here at TTP, still learning and attempting to help others learn the complexities of what Dan does. The good news is I continue to become better as I learn from Dan and some of his other students. I become a little bit better trader every day, every week and every month as time goes on I keep making progress.
Now I would love to give you numbers on what I have done since studying under Dan, but I don’t think you would believe me and I say that because I wouldn’t believe me either, so I will only suffice to say that I have been profitable over the past two years of studying under Dan. Now mind you add to the equation that I work fulltime at a day job and only trade most of the time during the first few hours of the RTH session. For me to state that I make money day in day out, week in week out is really an amazing feat when you think about it and I can’t imagine what the odds are against it. Before I started studying under Dan I wouldn’t have believed me having read this post/review quite honestly.
I have had some amazing days and put on some swing trades that have netted me several thousand dollars in futures since coming to TTP. With that being said do I hit home runs every day? No of course not. Do I have losing weeks? Yes, but because Dan’s system of trading is so solid, I continue to grind it out and make money over the long term. The same is true for Dan, he has losing days and even losing weeks, but I continue to watch him make money over the long term, which as I said I have seen with my own eyes over a lengthy period of time. Dan is the real deal when it comes to trading and I have the utmost respect for him. Often other students will ask me why I don’t look at some indicator, and I will reply “Well Dan said it’s a waste of time so I don’t look at it”. It wasn’t until I stopped trying to do what I had been doing that I finally started getting somewhere when I came to TTP. This makes total sense to me now since while I had had some success, I was not consistent as a trader. Today I am very consistent, but I don’t use any of my original tools except an MP chart and its secondary information for me now.
I always used to wonder what Dalton meant when he said put in the work. Well under this system there is more work than can be done and it’s constant (This due to the fact I watch about 10 markets). The TTP system is not easy to understand and you don’t pick it up over a week, a month and some don’t even a year. Everyone wants a green light red light system, but that doesn’t exist and as I have said trading isn’t easy, if it was everyone would be doing it and we would all be rich. Not the case, sorry folks, not even at TTP. But after spending so much time with Dan and TTP students and making so much progress, I felt it was time to write a review about his system, its well over due. I am done looking for the Holy Grail, as I don’t think I can get any closer than I am right now. As I said I have sat with 10 pro’s and I am still here at TTP more than two years on now. I am not going anywhere. As a final note you may wonder what Dan said when I asked him the proverbial trading training question. Well, you should know, I never did because I already knew the answer.
Thanks Dan for everything, sharing your time and experience with me has really changed my life so to speak. I was quite honestly very close to throwing in the towel on day trading when I came across your You Tube channel, so you have shown me the light sir. I can’t convey how much I owe you. Looking forward to many more years with you and TTP, thanks again.
