I am often asked to increase the number of trades in the official folio. My answer is almost always the same: My priority is to preserve capital BUT while still offering a decent way for safe extra income. BUT since I know that a lot of members are active so I also share a lot of my trade ideas that I personally take throughout the week. Here is an example of one that covers a mortgage payment for a nice house:

• Yesterday, I sent out a note saying the following:

• 

• Today at the open I sent out an update saying the following:

• 

• These trades ideas are good enough for me and I am actually taking them; not paper trades. I put my money where my mouth is. In fact today most who took this trade yesterday did better than me and that makes me smile.
• The point: I am constantly looking for more ways to provide value to continue to dwarf the nominal cost of membership. Here is what I see value in (and in order of importance):
  1. Education (In my opinion this is the best aspect)
  2. You have my attention 24/7 (all of you can attest to that)
  3. Discussion forum (including the chat area open all day)
  4. Trade ideas
  5. Folio trades

I am always open to ideas so keep them coming. The community is the best here and elsewhere and keeps building steam.
