I read about Salem Abraham in Michael Covel’s The Complete TurtleTrader and Trend Following books. Abraham’s story is unique and his credentials, especially his trading performance, are impeccable. So when I heard about the Market Wizard Mentoring DVD featuring this second generation “Turtle,” I couldn’t wait to see it. After seeing the DVD, I highly recommend it. It’s a tremendous experience to watch a casual 1.5 hour conversation as Michael Covel picks Salem Abraham’s brain. Abraham tells the story of how he got started and of his influences growing up. He shares the major lessons he learned along the way and offers his advice. He teaches about probability and risk. I was blown away! I was getting a lesson in probability from one of the top traders in the world! I think the best part of watching this DVD is not just the content but the nuances you get when you “read between the lines”: the way he thinks; his confidence and mindset towards trading. I had some high expectations and this DVD definitely delivers!

My two cents on your next project: Make another film. Don’t get me wrong, your books are great. However, you are a great storyteller, and your no-bullshit attitude is a huge part of your appeal. It comes through much stronger on the camera as opposed to the printed page. Maybe do both a film and book and spin a book out of it? Enjoyed the NYIF webinar even without the video. Keep up the great work.

I consider “Broke” to be one of the most brutally honest and accurate assessments of the financial services industry, media, crowd psychology, and investing/trading knowledge ever produced. As a risk professional with long-held similar views, I can’t begin tell you how much a voice like yours is needed to offset the traditional flawed investment paradigm that is spoon fed to the general public as wisdom. I have posted your Youtube preview on my website and am recommending your film and services to all of my clients, neighbors, and friends. Awesome job Mr. Covel! Keep speaking truth to power, you are doing an immeasurable public service by doing so.

Although I had never heard of Kevin Bruce prior to watching Michael Covel’s movie, “Broke: the New American Dream”, the fact that he had earned over $100M caught my attention. The Kevin Bruce DVD offers a closer look at this extraordinary trader. A truly unique aspect of Bruce’s story is that he taught himself to trade and developed his own style of trading without the help of any real trading mentor. He researched his own methodology to identify trends while working at a gas station! His research gave him such conviction that his trading methodology would work. It’s clear that this confidence and conviction was a main component of his success. As he tells his story, analyzing his journey step by step, he offers little pearls of trading wisdom that you almost miss the first time watching the DVD. Clearly, this is one of those DVDs that you need to watch several times (while taking notes) to get the full benefit. It’s also extremely motivating to see someone, who started from scratch yet with the correct approach, reach such lofty heights of trading success.

Thanks!
