Brad ~

 By the way your market timing analysis is unlike any I have read. I’m very impressed to this point. Thanks, and have a great day.

Scott H. 12/2/09 Tallahassee, Fl

First off, your work is absolutely excellent. I tried out two services at the same time with similar options strategies and yours is far and away superior and more thorough and detailed, which is why I cancelled the other subscription and only subscribe to your service. Just so you know, the main reason I'm so positive about your service is your attention to detail and the weekly report you provide. It helps to see the thought process and work that goes behind the trade recommendations. I've highly recommended your service to my two bosses (and some other people) and they're asking about how it's going regularly, so hopefully I'll get more people on board for your service eventually. Keep up the great work and research.

Hi Brad, Thanks for getting back....by the way, your advisories are teaching me a lot. I am very pleased with how easy they are to read and understand.

Adam M., received 11/23/09, Starke, FL

Thanks for your service. You do a great job and the education is nice.

Ken K., received 11/17/09, Wilsonville, OR

Thanks Brad – I'm really enjoying your service and making some money.

Thank you for getting back to my question.  BTW - I think the quality of your service is exceptional.

Panos K., received 10/27/09, Pearland, TX

Hi Brad, You have an excellent service and I did make money with it. Cannot argue with success.  It is that at the moment I am stepping aside on the market for personal reasons. I can assure you that I will rejoin your service shortly. I did find it interesting, informative, professional and successful. Thank you and I look forward to rejoining when I'm able.

Fironezo D., received 10/20/09, Melbourne Beach, FL

I have really enjoyed the service. I couple your analysis and utilize spread writing with hedging and money management to now operate an investment advisor business.  My net after fees was ~45% over the last year to clients. They love it. The hedging and money management protect from huge volatility even though it waters down the return. But the returns are large enough and compound so as to make this a very attractive passive investment for those who don't want to do it themselves. Minimum investment is $50K. Thanks again for your excellent weekly analysis.

Scott L., received 10/14/09, Queen Creek, AZ

Brad, I appreciate your availability. [through phone and email] As I delve into your system more fully I am sure I will have questions. I'll seek to answer them through study, but if I get stumped I'll give you a call.  Right now I just need to experience the mechanics of putting on the trades and it appears your FAQs and Learning Center will square me away.  Thanks again for being available. That means a lot.

Robert P., received 10/8/09, San Jose, CA

Dear Brad,  Although there is much value in your service, I found the basis for your trade recommendations to be nearly identical to my own.  However, I will recommend your service to anyone who is a novice to intermediate spread trader and I think your learning tools are excellent!!   Thanks again.

Andrew G., received 10/7/09, Saint Louis, MO

I want to stand aside for a while. This market is a little too scary for me.  I love your service and you guys are great. I'll be back!

Bill R., received 10/2/09, Erie, CO

Hi Brad,  What a wonderful hour we had! [when you presented to our investment club]  Everyone was impressed with you, your command of your strategy and the warmth with which you shared your knowledge.  Thank you again for taking the time to meet with us.

Thanks again for your response and you should know that I subscribe to many newsletters and yours is the best for content, appearance, and results

Jason V., received 9/1/09, Lexington, KY

Great. Thanks very much Brad. I would like to emphasize that I really enjoy the detailed and clear explanations you have. I have read several of the articles and FAQ’s on your web site. I also like how you come across. One thing is. I know you are an engineer (by background). Engineers are very detail oriented and are up front. I feel and I have experienced that other newsletters always find a way to rationalize something that was not done correctly. Often they are not up front. They just want to sell you on stuff. Obviously $30 extra for auto-trading the SPY is worth it.

Manhar K., received 8/31/09, Superior, CO

Brad, Thanks for your note.  I'm finally willing to abandon my own amateurish, part-time and generally unprofitable attempts to be successful with options investing and to entrust the management of my options portfolio to the very professional and successful MCTO team.  One question about auto-trading ....

Micah W., received 8/10/09, Boerne, TX

Thank you for the detailed responses and they all make sense.  I had been writing naked call options and making good returns for 4-5 months and did get killed one month on a very high beta stock (BIDU), so I have "found religion" to be more conservative and not be naked (especially on the down side with a market crash) .....  I do want to commend you on your overall approach, detailed responses on your web page, and your track record showing. I have looked at many services and your program is extremely solid.  Thank you again.

Quick question....

Jason V., received 6/30/09, Lexington, KY

Brad, thank you for your detail explanation, I have got the free trial and I must say your newsletter is 1 of the best out there, most newsletter only give out the level to buy and sell but your include a detail analysis this will benefit subscriber to follow and learn at the same time.  I will be with you for a long long time. thank you brad

I find this [the MCTO advisory service] to be a great combination of technicals, analysis, and trade management. I am looking forward to navigating these markets together.

Hello Brad:

Thanks for responding to my previous question so quickly-- I do appreciate the great customer service.

Don S., received 6/1/09, Rocky River, OH

Dear MCTO (Mr. Brad Reinard):

After a 30 day trial, during which I've learned a great deal I've decided to subscribe.  I've been an Optionetics student for the past 4 years, am familiar with Platinum [Options analysis software], and really like high probability trades and your approach to managing credit spreads. Your market analysis also makes sense to me. I'm looking forward to trading with your guidelines and being a continuing client.

Hi, I think your service is great. Not losing money anymore like before. Keep up the good work.

Thanks,
Don K., received 5/27/09, Bath, PA

Hi Brad, Thanks for your time in responding back to me and your well detailed advice & recommendation. You appear to be a detailed person, just as you do in your advisories.  I enjoyed reading your advisory and will keep you in mind once I can build up my account to start trading credit spreads.

Kofi A., received 5/1/09; Burtonsville, MD

Thanks for getting back to me that was very helpful. So far, I really like your service and have had three very successful months....Keep up the great work.

Hi Brad,

Thanks very much for your understanding and you kindness. I think you are an honorable man swimming in a sea full of sharks.

Earl M., received 4/4/09, Chatham, NJ

Yes you are right, I did luck out on this one and I learned what not to do next time.  Originally I was going to trade 20 options contracts but I think I'll stay in kindergarten for a while longer with under 5 credit spreads at a time.  Thanks again for your great follow up and market advice in the newsletters.

Terry L., received 2/22/09, Springfield, OR

Dear MCTO-

Thank you for getting back to me.  I want to reiterate that I have nothing but praise for your options advisory service.  I've been using you guys for the last 2 years and I believe that I now have a full understanding of credit spreads and that I'm confident enough to trade on my own.  Thank you for all of your help and education over the years and giving me a new way to make extra income.

Brian S., received 12/20/08, Falls Church, VA
 

Brad,

Thanks for the info on the Dec 630/640 bull put spread.  By the way, I've looked around at some other credit spread & iron condor services and once again must say your Advisory is superior and contains more detail.

Brent B., received 12/15/08, Tulsa, OK
 

Thank you for the very professional explanations and strategic advice in your emails over the past weekend. The MCTO team stepped up under very challenging market conditions and prepared superb explanations and trade recommendations. The Team obviously put a lot of thought and effort into seeking possible solutions to a horrible market situation. Most importantly, the Team demonstrated concern for its client's portfolios and offered solid and very timely recommendations. Please express my thanks for the extra effort to the MCTO Team. Well done!

Thanks for the insight Brad.  I find your derivatives newsletter and trade recommendations very informative and look forward to continue as a subscriber.

Michael B., received 9/27/08, Jacksonville, FL

Brad,

Thanks for the offer of telephone support. Maybe my questions are a little premature.  I'll start trading a small number of credit spreads through Option Express to get a feel for things first.   FYI - I like how your advisories are well written, very clear and precise.

Brent B., received 9/8/08, Tulsa, OK

Hi MCTO,

I'm sorry but I am going to have to take a pause on my options advisory subscription.  I like your service very much and have made some money but I don't have time currently to pursue this due to family business that requires too much of my time. Thank you very much for your great service and I'll be returning when I free up.

Dennis B., received 9/4/08, Coeur d'Alene, ID

As always thanks for the info. Thought you may want to know I have been trading your recommended iron condors with a small amount for 2 months. It’s been a little scary i.e. July [2008],  but I continue to reread your website [Learning Center] and slowly gain confidence. As a new subscriber I could not be more happy with your service. My plan was and is to slowly work into this and increase the money with my confidence level. So far I’m negative in my returns and the beauty is I understand the reason why. With that understanding comes the joy of knowing I will understand this and with this comes profit! You do a great job of answering the dumb questions us nervous new investors ask.

Mike T., received 8/26/08, Laveen, AZ

Brad,

I did receive your email today.  Thanks.  I must say, it was a relief to find your site.  There are so many ridiculous claims all over the web as well as in IBD [Investors Business Daily] about trading options.  I have an account with OptionsXpress and have been trading options for a few years now.  The only strategy that has consistently worked well for me was credit spreads and condors which is what attracted me to your site.  So far I'm confident that MCTO will help further refine my skills (especially with adjustments) and help out with analysis.

Michael S., received 8/26/08, Shelton, CT

Hi MCTO,

I really like your options advisory service--particularly your communication with us during difficult times that we sometimes go through.  I am a long time credit spread trader, but I've learned a lot from your commentary and site.  I particularly like the idea of having two accounts.  I have always attacked this problem by using 2 indexes ie along with the RUT I use the IWM ETF. Keep up the good work!

Bert R., received 8/12/08, Houston, TX

Dear Bradford,

I'm stopping the service for now since I plan to step back from the markets.  It's getting too volatile for me.  I think your service is great and really appreciate your comments/take on the markets, and the charts are excellent!  I plan on returning to your service when all of this comes about. Thanks you for your excellent service.

Sandra G., received 8/1/08, Boone, NC

Rob,

Thanks for taking the time to get back to me.  My broker had new software that took a while to close out the spreads.  Your MCTO strategies are great.  I look forward to being a long-term subscriber.  Thanks for a profitable month.

Chadd N., received 6/25/08, Santa Clara, CA

Brad & Rob,

I am really enjoying the service you provide.  Your team has helped me put together the last few concepts I have been toying with for a number of years.  I've been trading a small sum for the last 6 months and am up 25% simple return.  That is pretty amazing considering the first month (Jan) losses and what the rest of the market has been doing.  I actually find myself cheering on the down days because they are good to this approach!  I have always had the dream of building a small investment company and I think this is a very good strategy to employ with other consulting inputs and a very conservative money management approach.  My intent is to bring this kind of trading benefit to those who can't or won't employ it but want someone else to do it for them.  I can profit from that.  While I will be doing my own analysis and positioning when I launch my business, I find your service to be a cornerstone of valuable information, perspective, and reality check for the direction I'm taking.  Thanks and keep up the good work!

Scott L., received 6/10/08, Queen Creek, AZ
 

Hello Brad,

Thank you so much for emailing me back. I'm with Etrade and I just talked to them today and they charge for the whole spread.  I just have to thank you again for your program my account is doing awesome with less stress. You have a client forever. Have a great day.

Kerry U., received 5/28/08, Mesa, AZ

Hi Bradford,

I don't know if you remember me.  We met at a presentation you gave in San Francisco in early 2007.  I tested your service for a few months and then left to get more options training through Optionetics.  Over the past year I have traded both options using Optionetics Publications and stocks using Investools methods.  The result over his last year is that I am at about break-even.  I noticed that the most consistent profits were made using options. Stocks are O.K. if you have an iron stomach and a lot of time.  Anyway, you seem to have a good track record and your conservative credit trades consistently make money.  I will still practice the stocks, but I need to generate income which is what this is all about.  Keep up the good work.

Hi MCTO Team,

I really like your service but I don’t have enough money to play the system so I am going into a fund that does the same thing you do.  Thanks for the trial, I love it.  If my account was big enough, [i.e. had more than $2000] your service would be way I would go.

Francis S., received 4/7/08, Wheaton, IL

Dear Rob & Brad,

When my original trial ends, start me up as regular subscriber. I understand better how the credit spreads work, and thanks to the emails you continued to send me, this month I have been able to make some money. Your guidance is very helpful and I want to thank you for it.

Simon W., received 3/17/08, Miami Beach, FL

Hi Brad & Rob,

Your service is excellent. Very informative especially on the weekly updates with information on the interpretation of the charts. I think my trading style is suited for more directional trades. Nothing wrong with your service. Keep up the great work. I might in the future come back to trade this way [sideways trading] along with my current style.

Chris R, received 2/21/08, Wellington, FL

Now the question to answer is when will [the S&P500 index] break-out, how hard will it move, and in what direction?  This is why I can't trade directional and prefer to sell premium [i.e. bring in cash monthly] with your advise.

Mack Bird, received 2/21/08, Eastman, GA

Dear MCTO,

I am enjoying the detail you provide about the market.  It compliments the trade recommendations very well.  It is very helpful to understand your thinking when a trade is recommended.  I have tried a couple of other credit spread services and your is better than both in terms of the explanation.
