Today's Quote: “The roots of education are bitter, but the fruit is sweet." Aristotle.

Here at Velez Capital Management (VCM) we have a different attitude about education. Our goal is to make a trader out of you. Whether you become an independent trader, or a member of our proprietary team, we want you to make money in the markets. Our goal is not to sell you more and more education. We offer intense 2 and 7 day classes and when you graduate, you are allowed to come back and take them over and over. You also get our premium gold service package for free every month. You also have the option of trading VCM firm capital, with VCM absorbing all of your losses. Firm capital (or highly leveraged capital to those independent traders), and the lowest commissions in the industry are a couple of reasons why we will make you successful.

However, to start this process, you do need to learn how to trade. And that is where the need for an education comes in. We try to show people the tools and techniques to take money out of the markets. Where does that money come from? Well, as a net total it comes from other traders. Every time you buy a stock, someone is selling it to you. That person selling the stock believes he or she is selling to a fool. Only one person will be right in any given time frame. Which trader will be correct in that trade?

Well it is our belief that in the long run it will be the educated trader. The one who has taken and learned from others mistakes and is ready to put a disciplined plan into action. People would never contemplate trying to become a doctor, a lawyer, or an accountant without a good education. Yet people do it all the time when learning to trade. When it comes to risking large amounts of money in an arena where they have every odd against them, most will do it without the benefit of any education. Or feel that one book or a one day class is all they need to learn.

Most people who do not get educated fail at trading. They will pay large amounts of money to the market every week, but would never consider ‘wasting’ it on getting the education needed to trade. We offer a full line of educational tools, from books and DVDs to our Premium Service packages, to our 2, 5, and 7 day seminars that prepare you to be a full time trader, either with VCM or as an independent. Don’t be one of those that will wait ‘until they make enough money trading to pay for the seminar’. Do it right. Get educated now.
