What type of computer or internet connection do I need?
Most computers that are no more then a few years old will probably work, with the following configuration; Pentium grade with 1 meg ram memory. You need to have a High speed internet connection to watch the videos and when you start watching the charts and trading in "real time". You will need to use Internet Explorer. AOL and Norton Antivirus are notorious for causing problems on the TradingFaith site as well as with trading software.
I am having trouble watching the Recaps or any of the Videos.
First be sure to Login. The videos are designed to work using Microsoft's Internet Explorer Browser. Visitors using Mozilla, AOL or other browsers may have difficulties. You need to have a High speed internet connection to watch the videos. An inability to view the Nightly Recaps during your Free Trial or any of the videos in the Samples area (which are available anytime to anyone) exposes a technical/ configuration issue on the visitors computer. These issues can be...Internet Connection, Active X, Browser or Security configuration issues. The problem is the visitors computer where software application updates/ upgrades will try to implement higher security measures to protect delivery of web content...ie, stopping streaming videos from TF. Unfortunately it is impossible for anyone from TF to diagnose or repair any of these potential techinical configuration issues. The TF students as well as visitors from all over the world are able to view the online videos as the site uses standard software for them...nothing special, unique or malicious. You may also need to update your Windows Media Player. There is a link to upgrade your Windows Media Player directly below the videos offered on TradingFaith. A Free Trial membership is limited and cannot access the class archives. Please see the Free Trial area and the top of this FAQ area to see full details of what a Free Trial membership offers.

How Long should I expect to be involved in the personal mentoring training process?
The student needs a minimum commitment of 3-6 months, with the possibility of 6-12 months and 8-12 hours a week to the learning process and journey to learn "God's Rhythm", which is the first phase. The secound phase where the students face the emotions when trading real money is discussed below. The student should be prepared, and diligently commit themselves to this amount of time. The more time the student can spend utilizing the services offered by TradingFaith, including the live and archived classes, will prove beneficial. Also, a commitment to spending time watching the live screens/ charts, what we call “screen time” is important. The student needs to also embrace, that during the natural learning process and journey, they will probably loose money, or have “drawdown” in their account. All students need to understand that trading is risky and we are not making any specific recommendation to buy or sell, and that the efforts of TradingFaith is to train the student concerning
"God's Rhythm"
A Trading Strategy.
One aspect to help lay a correct foundation in entering the mentoring program is that each student should have at least $7,000 to $10,000 for the training journey. This gives the student the proper mental position from a time perspective and plenty of padding from a financial perspective, as this amount of money gives the trader the money to both go through the mentoring program as well as fund their account for the learning process and journey.
The student needs to take full responsibility for their trading decisions and resist the impulse to become frustrated, find blame, and compare themselves to the other students during their training journey.
The student should possess patience, and be able to manage their emotions while having the ability to focus, and step back to see the bigger picture without getting caught up in the details, being over analytical. The students should also feel called to the ministry of giving, and to be a financial blessing, to fund the "Spreading of the Gospel" and to do "Good Works". It is also beneficial that the student have familiarization with a computer. The student also needs to understand that they will be presented with choices in a "real time" trading environment. Being able to make decisions is a critical skill that the student will need...to be successful.
Students do have the potential to lose large sums of money. This is because, they do not honor/respect protective stops and try to swing for the fence on trades. These things are not taught at TF. There are other reasons that traders struggle to be successful and consistant, to this issue... consider these things:
Almost without exception the students of TF will state that the financial markets flow to "God's Rhythm", day after day after day. Also, students of TF will state that they have been successful learning and executing "God's Rhythm" using a simulator (fake money).
So the question is... if a student will see and learn "God's Rhythm", and is then able to execute and be successful with fake money...then why do any traders fail at becoming consistant at flowing to "God's Rhythm" and eventually stop trading?
Yes, some students have stopped trading once they have gone live trading real money. They have not been able to become consistent executing "God's Rhythm". The struggle for these students comes down to the emotional issues that each trader faces with real money at risk. We try as best we can to address these emotional struggles by spending time with the students every single trading day in a Live Trading environment, helping them to learn, and execute "God's Rhythm"...replacing emotional issues with confidence etc.
However, each student has to deal with these emotional issues/struggles for themselves to become consistent and successful. There are no guarantees that the student will succeed concerning the true emotional struggle. Unfotunantely, seeking a conversation with current students looking for validation/reassurances, or documented historical financial results proof etc, etc, etc... will not answer this question for the new student. The real issue is; not how other students are responding to the emotional struggle of trading...but how will you? And any endeavor from TF to provide such things would be profoundly wrong for the student that would base their involvement on such validation...only to find that they cannot work through the true emotional struggles.
The students goal is to capture 2 points each day (manna for the day) and then walk away...and each and every day gives dozens and dozens of opportunities to capture these points based on "God's Rhythm" and the triggers that are taught in the mentoring program. Again, The students do not struggle learning "God's Rhythm", or successfully capturing points with a simulator (fake money)...their struggle is almost exclusive to negative emotions. Learning to capture these points creates confidence...confidence eliminates all the negative emotions. This conservative daily goal also allows the students to more then fulfill their calling and vision.
There are three legs to the training journey. The first leg is learning the "Trading Software". The second leg is learning "God's Rhythm" and the "J1MLP Trading Strategy". The third leg is learning to take the theory that is learned in leg two and apply it or learn to "Execute" in a real time market that is constantly changing it's dynamics.
Every trader is different and has a different journey.
