""After 10 years of daytrading I was joining Charlie's elite circle to improve my consistency and work on my mental skills.

At the beginning of the course I was a day trader. Charlie supported me in the mental approach and his experience in multiple timeframe analysis.

What impressed me the most: Charlie allows me to use my understanding of the market and helps me to understand the benefits of swing trading, with patience and deep knowledge of the markets, without sounding like a professor to a rookie. He is passioned about the trading. Even when I have texted him a message about 8 pm, he responds one hour later.

He has not only changed my trading to swing trading, but also the way I see the markets. Following his trades, with deep explanation, why he took it and what are his management rules, helps me a lot to develop my skills.

I am now a swing trader and getting more confident and gaining consistency.

To allow a student to develop their own trading pattern, questioning the new information, and be ready to support at any time along the way, this is a true mentor.

This I have found in Charlie – my best trading decision!"
