Hughes 
 

Chuck Hughes, who started his trading in 1984, was a full-time commercial airline pilot. However, according to Hughes, his job as pilot was quite frustrating sometimes. This is the reason that he wanted to start his own trading. His working schedule of 15 to 17 days off each month used to create a void and trading was the perfect solution for this. Hughes got quick success in trading as he finished 10th in the '85 United States Trading Championship and 3rd in '86 competition with a huge 260% return. 

Chuck Hughes also accrued titles in the systems trading in another international trading championship in futures in '94 and '95, the day trading division of '95, and the professional division in '99. In 2003, Chuck Hughes was placed third in the in the same competition for Stock Trading. Then in 2005, 2007 and 2009 he took first once again in the stock trading division.

How a Market Crash Can Make You a Millionaire
 

By: Chuck Hughes

 

The following is an excerpt from Chuck Hughes' Market Volatility Profit Secrets 

 

It could start with a terrorist attack or the collapse of a major bank or government-sponsored entity like Fannie Mae.  Investors panic and start to sell from the opening bell.

 

By mid-morning, the NYSE has broken all records for volume as prices continue a downward spiral.  Shortly after noon, hedge funds and money center banks start snapping up shares at what appears to be bargain prices.

 

But the respite is short lived.  The selling continues and then intensifies as mutual funds dump stocks to meet redemption demands.

Destruction of a Trader

 

By:  Don Wellenreiter

The following is an excerpt from Don Wellenreiter's Millionaire Secrets for the Average Guy 

Over Trading

 

This is one of the most dangerous things a new or veteran trader can do.  Whether driven by the excitement to be in too many markets at once, or trading in a market that is just too big for you to be in, over trading will quickly knock a trader out.  Probably one of the worst things to happen to the retail option investor was the advent of SPAN margin.  SPAN margin calculates the margin requirement for options that are sold.  The original idea behind SPAN was that it was unfair to option sellers who sold options that were far-out-of-the-money and had little time left until the expiration to be charged the full margin of the underlying contract.

The following is an excerpt from David Caplan's The Options Secret

 

In The Option Secret, we compare trading to playing poker in many areas.  This analogy is not meant to be cute, but rather because they are quite similar in many ways.  Also, it may be the easiest way to visualize when and why we should be trading.  (In comparing statistics to trading, gambling analysts have stated that 80%-90% of poker players lose and professional players, although they may lose occasionally, year after year come out ahead).
