Ten Things Most Exciting for 2010
Dec 31st, 2009 | By Bella | Category: General Comments, Mike Bellafiore's (Bella's) Blogs, Trading Ideas, Trading Psychology, Trading Theory10. The SEC tax declining by about 35c per thousand shares traded. 2009 was a tough year made much tougher because of this tax being raised 400 percent last year. This will mean a possible extra 17k for some of our traders.
9. Secret Project X. SMB has developed a practice tool we are very proud to unveil to our in house traders. Deliberate practice is how you become successful at anything. This training innovation allows the developing trader the chance to practice.
8. The launch of our new SMB Training website. We have been working on an improved site for many months. Roy Davis, our coder and graphics designer are working hard to produce an amazing new product. I have seen glimpses. The site design will finally match the quality of the distance learning offered.
7. StockTwits TV 2010. Howard Lindzon and Phil Pearlman have started a killer trading community. The new and improved video for StockTwits TV is so exciting. Can we just fast forward to 1/4/2010 already and launch the new look?
6. SMB Trades2Hold of the Week. Every Friday we will hold a new session where we discuss the best Trades2Hold intraday from the past week. This will be an awesome learning session that leverages the trading talent from our desk.
5. Dov Blogs. One of our future star traders is starting to get stalkers. I noticed some google searches directly for his name. Dov thinks the searchers were his mother and possibly a new young lady seeking to learn if he is out on probation. See he is very witty. Much more to come from Dov.
4. The Shark Tank. They are coming for you market players. They are hungry. They prepare for battle. Stay tuned.
3. Tie: Me losing some weight. Some jokester sent me an email the other day mocking how much weight I have gained since “Wall Street Warriors.” I have gained 30 pounds since I started SMB Capital and SMB Training. Time to take that weight off.
And continuing to exchange ideas with Dr. Steenbarger from TraderFeed on building a world class training program for developing traders.
2. I am about to be an uncle!
1. Watching how much our traders improve next year!
To all of us at SMB Blog thank you for reading. We look forward to sharing our trading stories and education with you in 2010.
Happy New Year!
