Sheridan Options Mentoring Student Testimonials

Dan Sheridan and Mark Fenton have dedicated themselves to make you a succesful trader. They work with you at your pace and make sure that you have a clear understanding of the trade before entering the pit with the alligators. They go through a pre-trade checklist with you to make sure you know all the risks and how you are going to handle them.It takes a while working with them before the training wheels come off your trading. Trade small, learn the craft Dan repeats over and over. If you don't listen he will shoot you in the foot with a BB gun. Dan has created a community of traders that are willing to share and help one another. It is a true measure of the teacher Dan Sheridan; that students are willing to give back.You will make a lot of new friends, but none more willing to help then Dan himself. It is the best investment you will ever make.

I became entranced with options trading early in 2004. Books on options were read, seminars attended, and biases were formed. "Options are stocks on steroids" a seminar speaker assured us. Two years and thousands of dollars later, I began to think of options as "stocks on drugs". Like a child who learns to keep his hand off a hot stove the hard way, I retreated to the sidelines without a clue as to how to consistently make money trading options.

In the summer of 2006 I discovered Dan Sheridan through the CBOE website. Dan's pie graph showing the relative amount of income trades versus speculative trades went right to the heart of my trading dilemma, and I became a student in the mentoring program.

Learning the craft is not easy but following Dan's advice and trading strategies has set me on the road to a profitable and enjoyable trading experience.

Even though I am in the financial services industry, and have been trading options for many years, training with Dan has taken my options knowledge and capabilities to a whole new level. The investing approach, along with the mentoring program, is absolutely the best I know of.

I have been following Dan for about 1 year. I attended his trading seminar in June 07 in Chicago, and really liked what I saw! I realized his group was special and decided to enroll in his mentoring program. I became an October student, and have really benefited from my experience. I believe the strength of the group lies in the members, as well as the support of Dan, Tom and the rest of Dan's team. The tools are great,the website is tremendous, and the willingness of the members to share their knowledge and experience is wonderful.
Best option trading learning experience I have been involved with, and there have been many.
Thanks Dan, Tom, Mark, Alina, Chad, Ernst, Steve, Howard, et al!!!!!

Dan is very passionate about his income trading & that really comes across with his teaching style.

Ho hum, another options trading program? I don't think so. I learned more about PROFITABLE option trading in the first three weeks of the program than I expected to learn in the first six months. Between Dan's easy going live Web-ex's, and his 22 years of experience on the floor of the CBOE, the knowledge he is imparting is priceless. This has got to be the best buy of my life.

Retired in S.W. Florida

I tried over the years a few approaches to the stock market. I did not have a success.

With Dan Sheridan mentoring I learned and am learning a new approach. Dan is devoted and patient. He structured a system that allows you to learn in your pace and you have almost as long as you need to learn. Big portion of the program is for life.

If you follow what you learned and practiced, your chances of making money are high. The reasons are simple: the probabilities are on you side, you start with the right strategy, you pick the right vehicle and you make adjustments along the journey.

Dan is teaching you to follow conservative rules

This has been the best money that I have spent in my market education. Dan has moved me to higher levels than anyone in my educational past. Today I wish I'd had Dan four years earlier. I would have spent alot less on educational costs and my trading accounts would be larger from being a profitable trader for a longer time period. The earlier you start with Dan the better your chances to being profitable sooner.
Dan's mentoring is the only educational program, that I have purchased into, that is not afraid of teaching you what to do when the market does not do what you want it to do. He is there to help you in your trading when you need it, not a week or two late if at all.

I first learned about options trading on TV. Then I attended one of those Motivational seminars were you go to get fired up. There I signed up and for a three day class and learned some basics about charting, and options. I left and got some books on options trading to expand on the basics. After a few weeks of reading I began trading. With just a basic knowledge I was dangerous. I Lost most of the start up capital. That's when I convinced myself "I needed some help". I attended several free options courses where the Sales team encouraged you to sign up for more. Which was a turn off. I found the CBOE Options Institute and there I learned of Dan's Webinars and his program. After viewing all of Dan's programs. I called and learned more about his program. I'm approaching a year with Dan's program and It has made a difference in my trades and life. Dan is your coach he tells you where you need work and what needs to be done to improve.

Options Trader for Life

Dan has helped me immeasurably, both in the big concepts and the nitty gritty. His program just keeps getting better and better each month and I think it's because he and his associates really care about your success and they're not just mouthing platitudes. There's nothing better out there so if you've found Dan Sheridan's Mentoring Program for options you can stop looking and join up.

Having Dan as a mentor has really opened up my eyes as to how to approach option trading. Before signing up with Dan, I really had no framework with which to apply risk management to my options trading. Thanks, to Dan, this is now firmly in place and is my number one focus when a trade is on.

Before joining the program, all the strategies (Butterflies, condors, verticals, calendars, diagonals) were just that, I had no real understanding of how or when to apply them. With Dan's guidance, this is no longer the case.

Dan teaches you how to pick candidates, assess the risk before initiating a trade and then how to manage the trade.

Dan has made a big difference to my trading.

Dan's Mentoring Program is the absolute best mentoring program I have ever seen. Dan teaches you a way of trading options that really works, and what make the program so great is that Dan truly cares about his students succeeding. The program is extremely well put together and provides all the tools a student needq to learn to trade successfully. Dan is all about the students and making them successful traders....he's never about selling the student another this or that. Dan is one of the most genuine people you'll ever meet and what he teaches you about trading options is beyond fantastic.

Just do it! Without hesitation I have to say that Dan (and this community) is awesome!

I can't say enough about this program. I left a very lucrative career as a Senior IT Project Manager for one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world to making a MORE lucrative living trading the methods as Dan has taught me. My best month was a 94% yeild but my personal average has been over 20% each and every month over the last 15 months. This includes averaging in those wild months with severe one directional movement where Dan teaches how to minimize your losses and maximize your profits. It's incredible that the average Joe can make a living doing this as long as you know how to do it. I have moved from New Jersey to Alabama so I can enjoy the incredible free time this has given me. I was never able to take golf lessons until now. And I'm only 38 years old.

I love the new format that you have recently posted and I've decided to go through the new program as a refresher.

Thank you Dan

I can not imagine a more dedicate trading mentor. Dan lives and breaths options. He is completely committed to the success of his students.
Without his help and lessons I would not be a profitable option trader in a time span of less than 6 months (for me a full time commitment to learn as much as possible).

Dan teaches you how to trade; not just the mechanics of how options work. I've traded options for over 7 years and have been one of Dan's students for almost 2 years and I can honestly say Sheridan Options Mentoring is the best value in option education today. I've learned more about how to successfully trade from Dan then I thought I would; I was surprised at what I didn't know. Dan has a genuine desire for his students to be successful. I know from personal experience that Dan's long term commitment to his students' success is invaluable. Anytime I've called Dan for help he was there and more than willing to help. Even thought I have never meet Dan, I think of him as a friend, not just a mentor.

With all the garbage out there in the options/ or trading market, I can honestly say that Dan and his staff are for real.

I would suggest that you throw away all the option books on your shelf and just take Dan's class. It will be one of the best financial decisions you will ever make.

I have not been financially compensated for saying this.

Dan's enthusiasm and knowledge base for options trading makes it easy for a student to stay focused and learn this complicated subject. His mastery of the greeks is phenomenal. And his ability to explain potential trades and existing positions in terms of the greeks is a skill I could never learned on my own.

Unfortunately with my personal reasons,I didn't get a chance to talk to any of the Dan's mentoring program mentors. I requested Dan S and Tom N to consider me in the next available batch. But, I have been regularly watching the webinars and they are extremely useful as am able to adapt to the current market conditions. I can't even think opening positions (low prob, high probs and other spreads) every month in this volatile market if I didn't have access to the Dan's program. Dan S comes up new trading ideas/strategies from time to time. The program really motivates all levels of traders.

Dan S, Dan H, Steve, Casey, Tom, Chad and many others are great guys. I'm very glad to be a part of this great team.

I'm very positive that I'll do even better once I started interacting with Dan 1-on-1.

Thanks for giving me opportunity to share my opinion.

I have been a student in Dan's program for a little over one year. I am consistently profitable using the methods I learned from him. I was an experienced trader, having day-traded stock index futures in the early-90s, but knew only the basics about options when I signed up for his mentoring program. I am on the lazy side of retirement and didn't want to spend all day in front of my computer, so I was attracted by Dan's suggestion that once learned, this way of trading could take very little time each day. I am happy to say that all of my expectations have been realized well beyond my initial hopes. As a teacher, Dan is extremely upbeat, patient and affirming. I'm always amazed by how he fits his teaching depth to the level his student is on. If you're a beginner, his teaching will be very simple but you'll feel stretched by the ideas he presents. If you're very advanced, he's right there with you, showing you nuances and refinements to your position management style. His overriding theme is that students must approach options trading as a craft. It took me a while to have this concept really sink in, but once I got it I understood that what he gives his students is invaluable. Like the old adage 'give a man a fish and he eats today; teach a man to fish and he'll eat every day,' Dan teaches his students to truly understand options and complex options positions. Dan could simply have taken the easy way out, given his students a 'cookbook' of positions and adjustments and sent us on our way but it's not the kind of teacher (or person) Dan is. Understanding the craft as he teaches it gives the student an amazing degree of flexibility and control over risk and reward. As it stands, the investment you'll make in Dan's mentoring program will give you the best financial returns you'll ever achieve. If you're ready to be finished with market predictions, market speculation as a way of trading, and "1000% returns in 2 days" then Dan is the teacher for you.

The pluses of Dan's method where the intensive One-on-One instruction and the opportunity to Monitor other student's sessions. I would learn -something- from practically every session. The Weekly Paper Trader sessions were particularly valuable, especially when he would do a 'Summary Session'. Dan's vast experience in the Trading Pits taught me that the Market Makers weren't Out to Get Me... They were just 'minding their Store' - Taking care of their Business - and with his training, I would be able to take care of Mine.

Classes were a 'Finishing School' based upon real world experience and proven Income Generating strategies. He was a Mentor and he was a Friend

My initial feedback is that I am extremely pleased with what I see so far. I am on a steep learning curve, and am having a lot of fun. I am confident that this will be the best $6,000 I have ever spent. I am recommending you to all my buddies. You have set up a really great, student-friendly experience. Casey is a real pro, and is teaching me a ton. I am also looking forward to the day when I can trade with you.

Bloody wonderful!
Hard to describe just how useful this mentoring has been & I've only been going a few short months... the future looks bright for my trading account

It's a combination of Dan's sense of humour & teaching ability, the ever-evolving website and benefits of the program, and the great community that it's all built around.

It's the other people in the program that make this work as well as it does. Everyone shares without ego & everyone else benefits.

If you're thinking about signing up & have even the smallest desire to learn how to make INCOME with options I strongly encourage you to try this. You won't regret it.

I first learned of Dan Sheridan from the CBOE website. I was an Investools student, but not making any headway. I started to listen to Dan on the recommendation of one of my trading club members. From the first seminar, I was hooked. I started with his trading income series. Then I attended a live seminar in San Jose. I was stoked after that. After expiration and getting out of the rest of my trades, I started utilizing Dan's methods. I now only trade indexes and don't even look at charts! Well, maybe once in a while.

Dan is so willing to help you in any way he can. He is honest, and shows you how he does it. You can only learn by watching him do it. Minuses are few, but I'm sure many say the same thing, and that is how easily he is distracted. That said, we all love him for just the way he is!!!!

I've been trading for years. I was introduced to options in the early 80's but didn't have time to devote to them until 2005. I did some intraday futures trading but the trading hours in Europe conflicted with family life too much. I was looking for a way to trade with long time frames, with leverage and controlled risk. Options filled the bill!

I found Dan on the CBOE website and everything he said made perfect sense. I was anxious to change my trading style to a more conservative, consistent approach. Dan's guidelines and instruction are worth their weight in gold! I did an OptionEtics Masters class and while the seminar was good, you are still on your own after the seminar is over. With Dan, it's a lifetime committment. Dan says we're stuck with him for life! Dan's desire to have his students be successful really shines through. I've never met anyone in the option industry who cares so much for others. By Dan's long term committment, he ensures the best chances for his students to be successful. This is the main separator between Dan and the others. As long as you pay attention to Dan's advice and stick with it, you should be able to learn the craft of option trading.
