My Students

I am 3 years in now and making enough income to retire.

I owe Dr. Fred Rouse a huge THANK YOU! The Short Window Retirement Planning  program delivered everything I expected. I am 3 years in now and making enough income to retire. I followed the program as closely as I could without trying to speed through it. I made my first trade 7 months into studying the chapters and doing back and forward testing. What I have found is that when I follow the program exactly, I come out on top.

I am now earning on average about $30K per month

I was reflecting on my path to become a trader for short term retirement since it’s been well over a year since I began down this path. I can say with the utmost certainty that I would not be earning the profit I am now earning without your course and probably would have given up at some point like most do. I am now earning on average about $30K per month.
