Pre Market Trader Videos | Trader User Group

RODNEY COPELAND: I've been with TUG (Trader User Group) for 2 years now and words cant describe what I've learned from Hal. I used to daytrade stocks and I was in other groups that didnt teach me how to manage risks or to trade smart. I was losing trades all the time. I found Hal through a webinar that I attended. I listened to 4 different guys and immediately knew right away that Hal was the best of the bunch. His style of trading is very understanding and he explains it very simply for anyone to understand, no

Roxanne M. [Louisiana, USA]: I want to share something today. When I joined this group I was and still AM a Rat Brain Trader! I did not have the right mind set to begin with...Thinking that I could blow through just what I thought were the IMPORTANT videos. Not only did I skip through the "RISK MANAGEMENT" video.....I pretty much forgot about it all together and went straight to Option Basics...The most important thing that I learned yesterday was watching that video on Risk Management! I thought that I could do a bunch of

Manju K. [California, USA]: I came across Hal and TUG videos while searching for information on YouTube on Options Trading &Trade Ideas. I started listening to Hal’s weekly Sunday 30minute webinar which he posts free in Youtube. Hal’s presentation, content and clarity drew my attention instantly and got addicted to his webinars so much that I started a conversation with Hal to understand more about TUG. As Hal started conversing with me in emails, I was amazed at the articulation & information that Hal shar

Greg W. [California, USA]: Education is the key to success. I learned about TUG while seeking information on YouTube for a beginners course in Options Trading. Having scanned a few videos, I was very impressed with Hal's Basic Options I & II training. The presentation was just the right speed. It was clear, concise, high quality and sufficiently detailed. Hal is clearly a great instructor and I look forward to learning more as a new subscriber. Thank you TUG!

Ellie S. [New York, USA]: I want to express my appreciations to Hal during my one on one coaching session for his patience and understanding since my microphone was not working properly. He is able to guide me to visual information and explanation in a very particular and clear manner. Hal makes me feel as I'm important - either I am in the very beginner stage ( building the chart stage) and I do not know nothing yet....I cannot wait till my next private session. Hal is a fantastic teacher and a humble person. His mindfu

Ellie S. [New York, USA]: All I can say about Trader User Group is “WOW” !!! I was very surprised when I signed up for Trading User Group. I have only been a member for less than a few weeks but I have been “eating up” the material and I’m stunned at volume of the giving information as well the fantastic (simple to understand) way in which Hal presents the information.I really have to say that TUG side is the best trading educational of Options&Futures I ever got my hands on and I have been on many fee based e

Mohamed I. [Georgia, USA]: I have taken few other educational courses before coming to TUG. I am very impressed with both educational content and regular market updates of TUG. Option synthetics and Risk Management are key for successful options trading. Understanding options synthetics and practical application of option synthetics are two completely different things. You can find the best ever explanation for practical application of option synthetics at TUG. TUG is BEST EVER trading related education investment I have

John H. [Badenwürtenberg, Germany]: Although i am not based in the US, I can say that joining the TUG has been a great investment. Hal is worth every dollar spent and then some. Alone the videos are worth a ton and the way Hal explains things is phenomenal. Many things he talks about in his Pre-Market sessions can be applied not only to US, but also European markets.

Jenny B. [New York, USA]: Hal is money. I am renewing my membership in his group for the 4th year because as a retail trader, he is simply the best teacher out there. He calls the markets with acumen, is very personable, fun and professional. He is fluid in stocks, options and futures, with an expert grasp on trading, from the simple and binary, to complex and time sensitive strategies. Hal is a great trader who is generous in sharing experience in the market. Bottom line, he helps his group make money. Period.

Arthur W.H. [Hong Kong, China]: Hi, Hal I must let you know I am indeed grateful for all the works you and your team have done to offer the TUG service and all the brilliant videos and Secret Trader Sessions. Within the very short time of joining TUG, I must confess I have learnt a lot. I am a just-retired person and doing Option Trades has been my planned post retirement past time as well as the means of regular income. Though I have attended quite some option classes in Hong Kong, they only served to puzzle me and made m

Marc L. [Connecticut, USA]: Best money spent trying to learn the Market. Hal brings a great balance Knowledge, Experience, & calculated risk. Only been a member for a couple of months, But ROI has been great. Like a good Poker player, Keeps a straight face and ups the ante when the cards are in his favor. There are a lot of smart people that can tell you what's going to happen in the future. Hal deals with the current situation.

Edye B. [Arkansas, USA]: I am new to TUG. Marie put me on to y'all & I'm so thankful she did. I am learning more through this teaching than I have anywhere else. The detail of your teaching & your style are so compatible to the way I learn. With each session it seems you have taken every question your students ask & incorporated them into your teaching. And the cost...wish I had found TUG before I spent the thousands I've spent other places. Thank you for your investment in those of us who are just starting

John A. [Paris, France]: Hal I find your free informational videos very educational and would suggest this to any starting options trader as a well defined starting point.

Jim R. [Oklahoma, USA]: Hal, I don’t think you have a more enthusiastic or supportive group of people than our group of 25 active traders. We routinely discuss in our meetings and emails what new things we are learning from you that no one else out there seems to tell us, and these are very important topics. We are very appreciative of your willingness and openness of sharing with us some of your “trade secrets” on trading. Your earnest desire to teach is very evident, we’ve learned so much from you. You are a

Marie K. [Florida, USA]: The trader user group training videos are excellent. Best I have seen in 4 years of trading options. The teaching is clear and easy to follow. Lots of vivid examples..and you can revisit as many times as you want. Great value....A key part of the leaning is the platform examples Hal explains for every strategy discussed...in a unique and comprehensive way. Best value out there

B.V. [Connecticut, USA]: I have been a TUG member for a year now and during that time have learned more about trading and more importantly about capital preservation than I ever learned during years of trading or from other mentors, some of whom were much more expensive than TUG. Hal seems to almost love teaching as much as he does trading. He makes his points clearly and concisely but he is always patient and really takes interest in his students. In trading we are always wanting the best return on capital and TUG memb

E.D. [West Virginia, USA]: I am a retired investment banker with extensive experience in stocks, bonds, mortgage finance and corporate finance. A few years ago I decided to learn technical analysis and options trading and after investing over $10,000 in education I am, at best, at an early intermediate stage. After taking courses from some of the nationally known providers, I fortuitously stumbled upon TUG on the internet. I sampled a few a la carte courses and sat in on one PMT, and I signed up for full membership just a

M. Speeney [North Carolina, USA]: Hey Hal …. Just wanted to shoot you a quick e-mail to say thanks …. Last Thursday, my brother and I were in a shaky trade … your analysis of the market together with your “hunch” suggested an up move at the opening followed-up by a downturn …. Sure enough things opened up – I grabbed my brother out of a meeting – told him what I gathered listening to you and convinced him that we should ditch this bad risk/reward trade …. By 3 in the afternoon, he tells me “your morning guy i

Ted P. [North Carolina, USA]: Joining TUG and having access to all the material Hal Brent makes available on his site is the best investment I have ever made in improving my trading expertise. I have been trading for about 15 years, and I have spent well over $10,000 on various courses and training. The TUG site is by far the best, most valuable, most fun, and most worthwhile of all previous expenditures, without question.

I.A. [Texas, USA]: Hal is a wonderful exemplar of combining macro and technical analysis with very focussed and well thought through option strategies. Some of the nuances on the strategies (in particular diagonals) are really useful (and I admit ones which I had not thought of). Although I am a new member I will definitely be a long term subscriber. The ability to view replays of premarket sessions and education series and skype group contact is great.

O.R. [Alberta, Canada]: I was a conservative buy and hold equity investor who followed all the standard acceptable investment rules yet my account was decimated by the dot.bomb bubble and then again by the 2008 bank failures. Hal has provided me an education of practical and immediately usable information which has helped me avoid a number of mistakes and has made me a better investor. I have been able to apply his methods to both my 401k account and to now a trading account. The TUG group provides a plethora of new in

Art Z. [Missouri, USA]: I have recently joined the TUG user group, the skype group, and the pre market group. Hal's knowledge and skill are evident but most importantly to me are his willingness and "ability" to teach. In my 30 years of trading experience I have found that just because a person is a good trader doesn't automatically qualify him as a good teacher. Hal, I believe, possesses both qualities. In addition I have found the quality and content of the website to be superb! I look forward to years of working wit

E.J.P. [New Jersey, USA]: I am a member of Hal\'s premarket calls and Skype Group. Both Hal\'s feel for the various investment markets and his fundamental and technical expertise are fantastic. I am an experienced trader and money manager that is in awe of Hal\'s knowledge and willingness to teach his subscribers while not holding anything back. I would highly recommend his investment services to anyone looking to take their trading and net worth to the next level.\" EJP 6-14-12

A.P. [Qroo, Mexico]: I enjoy a lot being in the TUG it is a honor for me being part of this community you have created, the 2 decades of experience you have is a valuable present for all of us,

S.P. [Abu Dhabi, UAE]: The group offers a great place to interact with others serious about optimizing opportunities and growing their skill sets. Fortunately, Hal is a great mentor and offers a vast array of knowledge. He shares openly in a warm and welcoming manor. I have only been a member for a short time but I am already exceptionally pleased that this experience has exceeded expectations and enlightened my trader-mind. Hal is the real deal.

D.O. [Connecticut, USA]: I just love Hal\'s new PMT (Pre Market Trading)sessions. He has such a global view of where everything is sitting and how it is all intertwined. He gives great support and resistance levels to watch for during the day so we can get an idea of where the market is heading. In general, just being a member of the Traders User Group is so different from other subscription services where you are just a number with deep pockets. This is a real community of traders with Hal at the helm. He wants us all

P.L.: Hal offers an amazing service through his Trader User Group. Here is a guy who is obviously walking the walk instead of just talking. He knows what is needed to be a successful trader and you can learn it all from him. I would highly recommend his pre morning trade service. We all look at potential trades and how we can make money. He recently suggested two short trades on unleaded gasoline and the SPX which has made me enough money to pay for the service for 5 years!

R.L.: I do a lot of market neutral trades, Condors, BF\'s and I had a great experience yesterday. With concerns of the debt debate I felt it a good idea to take profits early in an IWM iron butterfly, normally I would have simply exited the entire trade at one time, BUT after listening to Hal and seeing how he uses the Donchian channels fast MACD, and the 4 cross 12, I applied that to a five min chart. I closed the put credit spread at the high end of yesterday\'s run up, then following the signals cl

Margaret G.: Dear Mr. Brent, It was great to meet you and the members of your Trader User Group this past Saturday. I left the meeting with a whole new outlook towards trading. I have been \"trading\" for a couple of years and have attended many seminars, other user groups and have also paid for \"coaching\" .........needless to say none compared to my first meeting with you. Risk management was one topic that was casually mentioned, nothing like your presentation. Wow, I feel like I\'m starting down a new p

B.B.: Hal sent us an e-mail detailing a special commission rate he had negotiated for members who use Think or Swim. I emailed TOS and got the special rate. I figured out that what I am now saving in commissions per year will be more than the cost of joining the Traders User Group. I\'m in the process of moving one of my other accounts to TOS to save even more. This special rate alone is reason to join but you will get much more out of this group in the education and advice.

R.L.: Excellent site, already the information on risk management has more than paid for my yearly subscription. I see myself using this site daily as a way to continue my progress toward becoming a full time trader.

R.L.: Excellent web site, I\'ve taken many courses on option trading and can say none of them offer as complete an explanation of risk management as does the Trader User Group. I feel this is a final piece in the puzzle to help me make the leap into full time trading.

J.B.: I have been attending Hal\'s monthly Saturday sessions for over a year. I was really surprised at the time and knowledge that Hal was willing to share with the group and at the same time ask for nothing in return. Hal definitely has a passion for trading and teaching. Hal\'s guidance has been invaluable to me and has exposed me to many markets that I would have never entertained trading in. I have learned much from Hal, including trading Eminis, indicator setups and risk management. I now trade

P.H.: When I attend Hal's presentations I always learn something new. Rather than teaching us a narrowly defined trading method, Hal's approach is to teach us how to use data to increase our probability of success and develop our own trading style.

T.D.K.: Hal constantly reminds us of the three pillars of good trading: Risk Management, charting analysis, and strategies. Of the three, risk management has always been my \"weak suite\", and at the insistence of Hal, have had to buckle down and begin to learn this discipline. There is a lot to it, but have become committed. It now pervades my thinking on any trade I consider, and have to credit Hal\'s work for this dedication to assessing and applying risk in all the trading I do. It has already been

B.B.: In 2009 after watching my stock portfolio cut in half from the recent market crash I had an epiphany. Buy and hold was no longer a viable way to make money. I started reading and studying about Options trading. I started looking for some advance training and I quickly found two things: 1. There are hundreds of courses being offered for $2,000 and up. 2. There are many “experts” proclaiming how you can make 100k a year by subscribing to their newsletters that costs $500-$1,000 per year. (if i

J.M.: Professionalism = Doing the job well and in a timely fashion. I witnessed professionalism recently and it is a good experience worth sharing … Earlier this week the new TUG website was launched. When my member password arrived I tried all the buttons. Everything worked perfectly except for the archived webinars. After a quick note to Hal I received a call from “Jack The Webmaster”. Jack checked to see if others (with older PC’s) might be having a similar problem. In about 24 hours, Jack

R.R.: Hals work with the Trader User Group has greatly expanded my knowledge of options and futures. He combines a thorough knowledge of the theoretical with a no-nonsense approach to making money. As the site grows its value will increase exponentially.
