The Incredible True Story Of The Strange Bet That Turned Rookie Traders With No
Experience Into Millionaires!

Plus… your personal invitation to take part in an updated version of this legendary trading challenge!

He turned $400 into $100 million…

…but what he did NEXT was even more impressive.

Richard Dennis

In the 1980’s a trader by the name of Richard Dennis started trading with just $400.

He was only 21 years old at the time. By the time he reached age 26, he was a millionaire. A few years after that he was worth more than $100 million.

Can you imagine what would happen if a man like that offered to personally teach you how to trade?

As it turns out, we don’t have to imagine.

That’s because the results of a “strange bet” revealed exactly what happened when this $100-million man taught his system to 13 ordinary folks.

The “Strange Bet” That Turned Ordinary Folks Into Millionaire Traders

After amassing his fortune, Richard Dennis traveled to Singapore. While there, he visited a turtle farm and saw firsthand the process of breeding and raising turtles.

In that moment, he came across an idea that would change everything. “What if you could ‘grow’ traders the same way they grow turtles?”

Other wealthy traders laughed at the idea. They thought great traders were simply born that way. But Richard would not be deterred.

A friendly wager was drawn up and “The Turtle Experiment” was born.

Richard placed a small ad in the Wall Street Journal to recruit his first round of “turtles.”

“Prior Experience In Trading Not Necessary”

The ad stated “prior experience in trading will be considered but is not necessary.” Over a thousand people replied to the ad, eager to learn under Richard Dennis.

Out of the thousand applicants, Richard hand-picked 13 people.

He took great effort to select ordinary folks. So his first group of turtles consisted of a teacher, an accountant, a kitchen helper, a handful of women and an unemployed man.

The 13 students traveled to Chicago for training. Richard taught them his rules of trading during a rigorous two-week crash course. His rules were simple. The key was actually following the system.

Richard told them “you could publish my trading rules in the newspaper and no one would follow them. The key is consistency and discipline.”

After the two week training, Richard opened and funded small trading accounts for each of them. He monitored them for a month. Those that followed his rules successfully were given larger accounts to trade.

In the following months, Richard repeated the process and recruited another batch of “turtles.” In total he handpicked and trained 23 traders. 20 of those traders made the cut. And as a group, those 20 turtles went on to amass over…

$175 Million Dollars!

One of the original turtles, a “country boy” named Jerry Parker Jr. actually ended up on the Forbes list of the 100 Top Traders in the nation. (Jerry was #25 on the list.)

Richard Dennis had proved without a shadow of a doubt that trading is a skill that can be taught to almost anyone.

He said as much when the Wall Street Journal followed up with him 4 years after the original Turtle experiment:

“Trading was even more teachable than I imagined. In a strange sort of way, it was almost humbling.”

Your Personal Invitation To Join The Brand New
2025 “Turtle Trading” Challenge!

Richard Dennis proved that almost anyone can be taught how to trade. In that spirit, we are hosting a brand new 2025 Turtle Trading challenge. Just like the original “turtle” challenge, we are accepting a limited number of individuals from a variety of backgrounds. No trading experience is required.

Years ago, we here at Tradewins Publishing partnered with one of the original Turtle traders. A man named Russ Sands. Russ was one of the original turtles and learned the complete turtle trading system directly from Richard Dennis himself.

Russ documented everything that he learned from Richard. And he even created a proprietary system that issues trade alerts based on the Turtle trading rules.

This is not the first time we’ve hosted a Turtle Trading challenge. Chet & Linda H. signed up for one of our previous challenges. They were kind enough to share brokerage statements with us to allow us to verify that they started the challenge with $38,447.23 in their account.

Since then, they’ve grown the account to a total account value of over $537,634.85! Along the way they’ve pulled out plenty of profits from the account to use as they pleased. Obviously I’m not promising that you’ll do as well as they have. Trading is risky and investing incurs risk of loss.

Then there’s Captain James B. He’s a professional sailor who spends half the year at sea. But thanks to “Turtle Trading” he reports that he’s added “six-figure profits to my accounts!”

Listen to a voicemail from James B.

Or how about Doctor Bill S – he’d heard of the famous turtles trading program for years but never took any action because he thought it would be too complicated or too confusing. But he finally took action and joined one of our recent Turtle Trading challenges and BOOM – he’s already up 27% within the first couple months!

Then there’s Robert B. He turned a $25,000 account into $49,600 in just 4 months thanks to Turtle Trading!

And Serge L, a software engineer who said “it’s been successful and it’s so easy that it feels like cheating.” He’s used his profits to help pay off his house and even put a downpayment on a brand new Tesla!

Remember, we’re not promising that you’ll do as well as they have. Trading is risky and investing incurs risk of loss.
