To ’Vote’ for your favorite video, describe below why you liked this video the best and why you would like to win a FREE set of the DVD’s from the 2008 Superconference… And tell us why YOU deserve to wn!
Carolyn did an excellent job at summarizing the benefits of the Conference and OU. It was a job well done and if I were not a member of OU, I would want to check it out base on her presentation. She delivered a lot in a minimum amount of words that was not a sales hype.
I would like to win a FREE set of the DVD because I was not able to attend the conference this year (I was there last year) and I would like to be able to see the new information that I may have missed that I could add to my existing library.
To the three comments above, agreed, agreed and agreed.
Carolyn tells a compelling story, and eminates genuine confidence in the Options University’s offering. She makes a great spokesperson.
As to the DVD,s, I’ve suffered too many losses tying to make money in the markets on my own, so travelling to Florida is out of reach. I could use the help.
Carolyn explain in a very explicit way what this conference has meant for her. Her story is very exciting and convincing. The main issue as compared to all the other videos is that Carolyn did not make a sales pitch but from her explanations you could fully understand the pros of using Options Unversity.
As I live abroad and was unable to come to USA for the 3 day conference I beleive that I am eligible for the Free DVD set.
Carolyn summed up precisely why the Option’s University program can change lives.
I need the DVD’s desperately to become a better trader and to get out of the trading hole I have dug for myself with no strategy in place to be successful.
This was a very tough choice as the enthusiasm was evident in all clips. I choose Carolyn to cheer her on I guess. I am a stay-at-home mom too. Recently divorced, i too am hoping to be able to stay at home by trading options. That way, my three kids won’t have to become latch key kids just because of the divorce. I hope to win a set of DVD’s to further my stay-at-home goal, like Carolyn. I know first hand OU is a first class norganization as I am in the Mastery Class, a hunk of cash for me but worth the increase in knowledge. Thanks OU and go for it Carolyn.
I am personally at the exact same stage of my trading carrier as she. She explains very well the goals she has and how your excellent conference has helped her polish her know how and put things into perspective. From tens of web sites and options trading school offerings out there, yours seems to be a winner. I hope to join your next conference and would greatly benefit from being the winner of this draw.
All the videos spoke to the professionalism of the conference and the presenters. But Carolyn stood out for me when she mentioned the new emphasis she found in risk management and the mental and psychological aspects of trading. I was able to relate to that since that has been such a real problem for me as well. If those subjects were discussed at the conference and were contained in the DVD’s, it would be a very valuable aid to me as I try to build a trading business. And maybe be able to attend the conference in person next year!
Carolyn gave reasons why I wish even harder I was able to go to the superconference in FL and why the DVD’s would certainly be worthwhile for anyone who was unable to make the conference in person to own.
Any event or dvds that give you take away nuggets to help better your investing, knowledge base and life should make the sponsors and guest speakers proud they were able to be involved in such an event.
Carolyn was to the point on what she acheived at the superconference..Personally she is at the same stage that I am in with opitons and I think she summmarized it well. She did speak about what she achived at the conference and the knowledge base that we could access…
Carolyn was very focused. She most likely will end up reaching her goals and beyond. I expect her to be the next teacher at your seminars. I am new to option trading and have not attended any of your seminars. Your websited was suggested to me by a friend. I have not made money in stocks or options and would be interested in learning more, my financial future depends on it. Thank You.
I like Carolyn’s presentation. She is able to sum up in a very concise way the objectives of learning options trading from Ron and his Asociates and the very important roles that Ron and his Associates play.
I am very sure I too will get a good drilling on the fine points of options trading and benefit from this conference DVDs and course materials.
I voted for Carolyn because she connected me to the aspects of the conference that are of critical importance to me—risk management and the mental aspects of trading.
Many of the other speakers did a GREAT job of conveying the excellence and completeness of the education that is provided by Options University, the integrity of Options University, the genuine passion for helping students that resonates from Ron and the others at OU, and the fact that the conference provided an INCREDIBLE value to students.
However, as a Platinum student at Options University, I already know all of that! I made the commitment to join OU as a Platinum student after a short period of time as a student in the OU Options Mastery class. The benefit to me of this level of immersion in the OU curriculum and tools is immense.
But Carolyn told me that the 2008 Superconference provided another huge piece of the trading puzzle—perspectives on the mental aspects of trading from several of the great traders who have made it the top of the field. This is a huge value for me and other traders who struggle with themselves to be professional, disciplined traders.
A lot of the clips were very good, but Carolyn’s had a draw I can’t explain.
Very concise, focused and sincere. I am sure she will reach her goals.
All the best to her.
I thought Carolyn made by far the best presentation on the conferance and was very sure of herself which you have to be in this type of market. She showed us that she was very sure of herself and showed the desire to learn all there was to learn in the options market or any other type of commodity she would try. Raising children gives you that ability to make fast and important decisions everyday just like one is faced with in the financial markets so I feel that that skill alone helps one make fast and smart decisions right away which is a skill that is unrealized. So I feel that she had by far the best presentation and showed us how to be very sure of yourself.
I feel Carolyn may have received a lot of inspiration and a new perspective of Options Trading from her Conference attendance. She should be very successful in her trading career.
All the best.
What compels me to vote for Carolyn, is that I am a stay at home mom. She was eloquent and made a wonderful presentation of why she was at the conference and how it has helped her reach the goal she has set for herself .
I’d like to get the free DVDs, because one, I dont have the funds to attend a conference and two, the DVDs would offer a wonderfuly opportunity for me to learn and start generating the income, I so badly need, from home.
I’ve been paper-trading since March and its been an up and down ride. I really wish I could improve my knowledge, so that I feel confident enough to make the jump and start trading and making money for real.
Excellent video. She described the benifets she received at the superconference and she was very appreciative. She convinced me that I did miss a wonderful opportunity and wish I had been able to go. I had to miss due to a work related injury. I think the mental aspects of the trading business is sometimes left behind in the training, but not at OU. I am a student of the spotlight stragegy program and have learned a tremendious amount if information about option stragegies way above what I already knew. Ron is great at making sure you have learned the program, so I’m sure he did the same at the conference. I have also heard Person and some of the other instructors give presentations. Their knowledge is incrediable. I KNOW it had to be a super superconverence.
Of all the videos, Carolyn’s is by far the best. She makes it seem like it is possible for anyone to master this subject.
I would like to attend this conference in the future, but for now my concentration is on making money in the market. That is what the tapes are designed to do - and with them this is what I will accomplish.
I liked Carolyn’s video the best out of the ones presented. She like the general population that wanted to learn more about their finacial future. She was well spoke and to the point and makes me want to look into OU. Sounds like the OU Conference was a super success. Congrats to Ron, Brett, and the OU staff.
I felt that Carolyn gave the clearest explanation of why she took the course, what her objectives were, and she was going to use what she learned. As one on a limited income I need to pick very carefully what I spend my money on. OU looks to me to be a good choice based on the testimonies of all the people who responded.
I liked Carolyn’s video testimony because she represented many traders like myself that have had a modicum of success and seriously want to move towards trading full time. She really captured my attention when she mentioned that the trainers emphasized treating your trading as a business and risk management, two key factors for successful trading. It seems OptionsUniversity has an approach to options trading that resonates with me and that I have not been able to find with any of the other so-called gurus. I would like to receive the DVDs because I believe they will contain information that is not available anywhere else and the information that I need to seriously take my options trading to the next level.
After listening to the participants, Carolyn clearly, in a no hype manner, stated her goals and how the conference met and exceeded her expectations. She seemed to be very level headed and it is clear that she is approaching her education in a business like fashion so that she can achieve financial security. More importantly, she seems to have the confidence that she will be able to meet her objectives with your information.
When you listen to her communicate the benefits that she learned such as understanding risk management and improving her mental focus, I felt that the information in the conference (and now on the DVD’s) will clearly give me the knowledge required to trade Options very successfully. I am looking for a mentor in the area of trading Options and I feel comfortable that OU can help move me forward in this area of my trading career. I am looking for an Options Trading Mentor and I look forward to evaluating OU program.
Carolyn did a wonderful job of describing exactly what stood out to her about the OU SuperConference. She was direct and to the point. I liked that about her.
I would like to win the DVD’s so that I could learn the information necessary to eventually become a full time trader. This is my dream.
I deserve to win the DVD’s because currently I do not have enough money to purchase the DVD’s, but would love to have them to start learning while I save up enough capital to start trading on my own. The OU DVD’s will teach me the necessary skills to learn how to become a full time trader. This is my dream and I hope that I win the DVD’s so that my dream will become reality soon.
After listening to the testimonies, Carolyn describes in such a sincere manor of the difficulty in finding honest and helpful teaching in this arena. She talks about both the mental aspect and the mechanics of the teachings and the effects on her and it certainly made me want to see the videos and have a desire to sign up for next years Super Conference.
I liked the way that the husband & wife team was finishing each other’s sentences, but Carolyn’s video seemed to be the best. See is relaxed and talks about her lessons learned and goals without making extravagent claims. She mentions pivot points, which may pique the interest of someone did not know what they were or did not know how to use them. Carolyn is a newbie, so I hope that she wins the prize for a free seat at the conference next year. The market has a way of teaching us very hard lessons. With another year of experience I am sure that Carolyn will go to the conference next year with a new perspective that will further enrich her learning.
Personally, I have been trading for about 5 years with moderate success, although this year has been very tough. I have never attended any of the OU super-conferences, usually due to lack of funds or schedule conflicts. I would love to see what everyone is raving about!
Why do I deserve to win? I wish that everyone could win! But really, why does anyone deserve to win? You play the game and follow the rules (or laws, if you play rugby)… you put out 110% effort… maybe you get a few bad calls by the ref (Fed) that set you back, but you continue to struggle for that goal. If you do that every day, then you deserve to win. If you don’t win, then maybe you need new coaches… which is why I need those DVDs.
Kudos to Carolyn!! She’s an articulate spokesperson for Options University, and deserving of the chance to attend again next year. Risk management, trading strategies and mastering the mental aspect of trading all combine to make a successful trader, and I believe Carolyn is well on her way to becoming one herself. She knows what she wants out of her trading business and to do it from the comforts of home. Well done!
Options is a strategy I’d like to add to my trading skills and I’d want the good people of Options University on my team of mentors. The DVD course would be a welcome addition to my trading library! As someone who has had to battle cancer, having another weapon in an arsenal against financial ruin would come in handy. I need all the help I can get to keep up the fight!!
well they were harder to pick this time . i pick carolyn because she talk bout risk mng. that tells me she is willing to work at this . i can tell she was encourage by the conference, and i think she will work at it and she will be successful if u work with her she will be one of your better success storys . thx. jim talley
Carolyn’s comments come over as credible. She probably has convinced many listeners of both the quality of the OU organisation and the event without giving a pushy sales talk.
I have been with OU for three years and went through all courses including the Mastery Course. Talked to Melanie ordering he CD’s but would like to receive the DVD’s as well. At 76 a trip to Florida from Germany was not in the cards.
Best regards
I consider this one to be the best. She covered all the bases as far as persuasion goes. Her testimonial is thorough, complete with believable fervor and resolve.
Thanks for allowing comment…
i liked carolyn’s best. she understands the need for more knowledge
and will use your conference to accomplish this. a small price to pay
for success. knowledge is power in anything you wish to be successful
in and i beleave she understands this. she will be back for more because
of her need for information to be successful.
i am new in option trading .i tried it once and went back to trading stocks
because i did not understand it that well.
i would like the dvds on ou conference. i am sure it would help me in
being able to trade options and this would make me very happy.
i beleave it is better to know both.
i would like to go to the comference next year
Everyone clearly loved the Superconference and the great job that OU and all the presenters did. But Carolyn most simply and eloquently expressed the value of what she learned at the Superconference and appreciated what it will enable her to do. She also recognized the importance of the “softer” topics, like the mental apects of trading and treating her trading as a business. Carolyn is relatively new to options trading and deserves a free pass to the 2009 Superconference to help her build on the strong foundation that she got from OU this year and to help her achieve a successful career as an options trader.
For those of us who missed the 2008 Superconference and the 100 copies of the DVD, we each would like to win a set. But I am skeptical of the notion of most “deserving” to win; I think a random draw would be fairest.
Nevertheless, since you asked, I am retired; but my wife still works to support us. I trade to supplement our income. My goal is to earn enough in trading so that my wife can retire, too. And I am sure that the lessons from the Superconference DVD would help me reach that goal.
Carolyn did the best job communicating her reasons for going to the Superconference and what she learned. Her communication style was sincere and pleasant, her facial expressions and eye contact were the best, and her vocal variety was easy to listen to. Her content supported her reasons for attending the conference. She stated the topics she found helpful in her own trading as she learned to trade as a business and the importance of money management to achieve her eventual goal of financial independence. Then she was especially excited about going home an trying the topics she learned like pivot points and she communicated confidence that she could do it as a result of attending the Superconference. Carolyn clearly did the best.
I would like you win the free DVD’s to reinforce the knowledge I gained in Ron’s Mastery Series. The Mastery Series was a great start for my future in trading, removing a couple of false starts with other training I tried. Additionally, with the excellent foundation the Mastery Series provided, the additional information from the Superconference, would help leverage that foundation along with Practical Applications course I’m currently in to help me transition to trading for a living so I can spend more time helping others in the community, get a better work-life balance, and prepare for retirement.
I don’t believe anyone deserves to win including myself, but it sure would be nice to win. By winning and studying the DVDs, they certainly would help me become more successful and for that I would be very grateful. With or without the free DVDs Ron has provided me excellent value in the training I’ve already attained. Ron, thank you for providing the realistic expectations and the potential for a different life.
She gave a good summary of what a prospective attendee might expect to learn from attending the conference. She also seemed to be the person that is most representative of the typical trader trying to trade for him or herself that most traders can relate to. In addition, trying to raise children and trade for oneself at the same time is very difficult, so I consider her to be most worthy of winning a trip to next year’s conference. I think having the freedom to stay at home with the children would have a tremendously positive impact on her children.
I would like to win the DVDs because as a novice to options, it would greatly help me achieve my goal of trading for a living and provide me with additional weapons in my trading arsenal. I feel I deserve to win because I want to provide for my family and be there for my 3 year old son while he grows up, just like Carolyn wants to be there for her children. I don’t deserve so much as my wife and son deserve it, and I owe it to them because of everything they’ve given to me.
Carolyn gave a good overview of the conference - and the best value proposition of the conference or the DVD set. Of all the individuals on video she is by far the most compelling, genuine and believable attendee. She is a composed and relaxed speaker.
Her confidence level came through from the super conference - and by far she would be the #1 spokesperson.
Some of the other attendees endorsements seems contrived. Hers did not.
I am currently enrolled in the Options Master Course and woud love to add the DVD of the Super Conference to my OU education.
Carolyn did a good job summarized what she learned from the conference in a concise way. She pointed out a few important things about trading that are crucial to successful traders: Treat trading as business, Risk Management & there is mental aspect in trading. I also like her enthusiasm about learning and eventually be trading full time. She inspires me. I would like to be able to stay home to trade so I can be with the children as well. I like to be able to learn from the DVDsl.
Carolyn gets my vote as she is very clear and concise. And she feels sincere and nice from the video.
Everyone who ventures into trading hopes to succeed and gain more wealth. Everyone who takes such a leap of faith also hopes for freedom to do what they want in life rather than be ordered around all their life. No successful trader will ever take it as a game and they all know it will not be an easy path. They all know continuous learning and passion are the only keys to success.
Although my vote goes to Carolyn, I wish the rest luck on getting picked for next year’s trip, and everyone here on getting the Dvds.
This lady understands what she wants and when she gets it.
I would love to be able to experience the feeling that she got by attending the conference by attending next years conference.
In the mean time, I beleive I could maybe get a huge benefit form winning one of the DVD sets.
I liked Carolyn’s video the best. She provided a brief background of herself and what her interests and aspirations were with respect to options trading. She was specific in listing the topics that she learned at the SuperConference — treating options as a business, risk management, and the mental aspects. She also acknowledged the quality of the various speakers. Carolyn also provided a summary of her take aways from the conference — to study pivot points, gaining of confidence based on the lessons learned. In addition she was also grateful for having attended the conference. I would vote for her to win a free trip to the Super Conference next year. Carolyn clearly articulated the benefits in attending this conference and appreciated the opportunity to attend this event.
I would like to win a free DVD set of the SuperConference. With the DVD set, I will be able to replay the various speakers several times. Through repetition I will be able to remember the lessons. My interests and aspirations are similar to those of Carolyn, and having a copy of this DVD set will help me become a better trader.
Carolyn’s testimony was very forthright. Treating investing as a business is a good point, sounds like there were great points learned at the conference along with good speakers there as well.
Carolyn’s description of the event was compelling, it made me wonder why I didn’t go myself. She was pleasant and informative, yet showed that she enjoyed the time she spent at the conference.
I thought Carolyn had formulated her opinions logically and concisely before she stepped in front of the camera. She was therefore able to convey a lot more of her impressions in the short time she was given.
I would like to receive the DVDs because I reside outside the US and my work commitments and financial constraints limit my ability to attend overseas conferences.
Carolyn struck me as being the “real deal” and very deserving of your invitation for next year. Someone with the desire to improve their livelihood through trading of options and apparently has discovered very successful techniques with the instruction of OU. Her testimony reflects nothing but good vibs for the course work and people associated with it.
My experiences to date with options could best be described by a caption I once saw on a poster. “Just when I understood how the game was played, they changed the rules!” I doubt that the rules really changed but rather I just don’t know them. I have come to realize that relying on subscription tippsters, however well intentioned, is getting me nowhere. Your DVD set sounds like it could be a lifestyle changing event and I would like to experience that.
I thought Carolyn did an excellent job of summarizing her experience with this event. She explained some of the take-aways that adds credibility of the “worthwhileness” of attending the seminars. I would like to hear her comments next year after a full year of applying what she has learned at this conference.
Unfortunately, I was not able to attend this conference, but hope that I could hear it with this “lottery”. I don’t think I “deserve” to win, who does on a free shot at winning….but it would be nice.
Carolyn’s testimony is encouraging because though successful, she still found the learning extremely valuable. Her one statement about treating it more like a business was something most of us overlook as traders.
The fact Carolyn spoke of the importance of risk management and the mental aspect of actual trading means she is on the right track. These are two of the most critical attributes of a successful trade. Also, her realization of the importance of pivot points is significant.
I like Carolyn’s video as she is clear and concise in her thoughts and presents it well. Her convictions on the program and how it has helped her trade and been successful at it makes me also want to be a success like her as I too would like to trade and make trading as a business and have a better quality of life and be able to work from home, and look after my aged parents.
Why I would like to win the DVD’s are because I live outside the US and it is not easy to attend the confrences in the US as financially it would be a burden.
I viewed all the videos and they were all good. The best thing since homemade bread. Carolyn said the most in the least amount of time and she is very focused on her goals. I have never traded options and just recently started researching covered calls as a means to supplement my mother’s retirement income as she is in an assisted living center and has no short term memory. I want to acquire the most information that I possibly can on investment strategy and income preservation. It would be absolutely wonderful to win These DVDs for the valuable information I am sure they contain and also because I did not even know they were available for purchase.
In Carolyn’s video she describes how from a beginning trader the Options University Superconference has opened her eyes to the possibilities of trading. Her commendable goal is to be a stay at home mom and make her living from trading. Her genuine delivery and description of the things she has learnt is what compeled me to vote for her video.
Carolyn helped me see a way to make a steady income from my home without sitting constantly at the computer which is critical. It was clear, concise and interesting. I would like to win the DVDs to assist in my efforts to be consistently profitable; this is critical for me since I am disabled any unable to work full time. Thank you for your consideration
Carolyn would be a great spokesperson for Options University. She seemed like she was walking away from the Superconference with all the tools and knowledge that she was looking for and whole lot more. To be able to go back home and have the confidence to use that knowledge to be able to reach her goals.
I would like to win the DVDs because I know that there is a ton of knowledge in them that you can not find anywhere else. I would study them everyday as if my life depended on them, so that I could reach my dreams and goals as well.
Carolyn was clear and concise. She was very genuine in her comments and praise of Options University. She came out of the conference very positive and that it would move her to the next level.
I would like to win the DVD’s, I know there is a lot of good information that I could get out of them, and they would help me become a much better and a more confident trader.
Carolyn gave a good summary of the strategies taught at the conference and the benefits of what the conference can offer. Like her I too would like to be able to trade full time and profitably. I would surely like to be able to view and learn from the conference.
Carolyn gave a clear reason for attending the conference based on her backgrouind in trading and what she had hoped to learn from it.
She then stated that her goals were met by attending and she advanced herself in the path to trading full time. This is the best testimony one can give for the material and is what all of us hope to attain when we accomplish what we set out to do.
Although I did not attend the conference last year I did buy the DVD set and got a great deal out of it from Price Headley, Dave elliott, Ron, Jon and Larry. Needless to say I have put this knowledge to good use in trading. This year I was hoping to buy the DVD set again. But to my disappointment , it was sold out. I wish OU would make some more copies. Just the roster of the presenters speak volumes of the quality of the material. I hope I am llucky enough to win aa set.
I think hers is the best because she is focused, and it came across that she found the OU material and superconference to be valuable. She also pointed out that it was not a wolf in sheep’s clothing, something that certainly any ticket purchaser would be interested in.
I would like to have the DVD’s to help me to make a living for myself. Although I have a degree, I am doing physical work, and this would help me to have stronger knowledge to start trading again sometime, as soon as I have the capital.

To ’Vote’ for your favorite video, describe below why you liked this video the best and why you would like to win a FREE set of the DVD’s from the 2008 Superconference… And tell us why YOU deserve to wn!
June 23rd, 2008 at 10:19 am
Carolyn presented an excellent synopsis of the benefits of attending the conference. It was thorough, yet concise. Well done!
June 23rd, 2008 at 10:47 am
Carolyn did an excellent job at summarizing the benefits of the Conference and OU. It was a job well done and if I were not a member of OU, I would want to check it out base on her presentation. She delivered a lot in a minimum amount of words that was not a sales hype.
I would like to win a FREE set of the DVD because I was not able to attend the conference this year (I was there last year) and I would like to be able to see the new information that I may have missed that I could add to my existing library.
June 23rd, 2008 at 11:07 am
To the three comments above, agreed, agreed and agreed.
Carolyn tells a compelling story, and eminates genuine confidence in the Options University’s offering. She makes a great spokesperson.
As to the DVD,s, I’ve suffered too many losses tying to make money in the markets on my own, so travelling to Florida is out of reach. I could use the help.
June 23rd, 2008 at 11:21 am
Carolyn explain in a very explicit way what this conference has meant for her. Her story is very exciting and convincing. The main issue as compared to all the other videos is that Carolyn did not make a sales pitch but from her explanations you could fully understand the pros of using Options Unversity.
As I live abroad and was unable to come to USA for the 3 day conference I beleive that I am eligible for the Free DVD set.

I hope to win a set of DVD’s to further my stay-at-home goal, like Carolyn. I know first hand OU is a first class norganization as I am in the Mastery Class, a hunk of cash for me but worth the increase in knowledge. Thanks OU and go for it Carolyn.
June 23rd, 2008 at 11:58 am
I am personally at the exact same stage of my trading carrier as she. She explains very well the goals she has and how your excellent conference has helped her polish her know how and put things into perspective. From tens of web sites and options trading school offerings out there, yours seems to be a winner. I hope to join your next conference and would greatly benefit from being the winner of this draw.
June 23rd, 2008 at 12:18 pm
All the videos spoke to the professionalism of the conference and the presenters. But Carolyn stood out for me when she mentioned the new emphasis she found in risk management and the mental and psychological aspects of trading. I was able to relate to that since that has been such a real problem for me as well. If those subjects were discussed at the conference and were contained in the DVD’s, it would be a very valuable aid to me as I try to build a trading business. And maybe be able to attend the conference in person next year!
June 23rd, 2008 at 12:26 pm
Carolyn gave reasons why I wish even harder I was able to go to the superconference in FL and why the DVD’s would certainly be worthwhile for anyone who was unable to make the conference in person to own.
Any event or dvds that give you take away nuggets to help better your investing, knowledge base and life should make the sponsors and guest speakers proud they were able to be involved in such an event.
June 23rd, 2008 at 12:34 pm

Carolyn was very focused. She most likely will end up reaching her goals and beyond. I expect her to be the next teacher at your seminars. I am new to option trading and have not attended any of your seminars. Your websited was suggested to me by a friend. I have not made money in stocks or options and would be interested in learning more, my financial future depends on it. Thank You.
June 23rd, 2008 at 12:50 pm
I like Carolyn’s presentation. She is able to sum up in a very concise way the objectives of learning options trading from Ron and his Asociates and the very important roles that Ron and his Associates play.
I am very sure I too will get a good drilling on the fine points of options trading and benefit from this conference DVDs and course materials.

This is a huge value for me and other traders who struggle with themselves to be professional, disciplined traders.
June 23rd, 2008 at 1:20 pm
A lot of the clips were very good, but Carolyn’s had a draw I can’t explain.
Very concise, focused and sincere. I am sure she will reach her goals.
All the best to her.
June 23rd, 2008 at 1:26 pm
I thought Carolyn made by far the best presentation on the conferance and was very sure of herself which you have to be in this type of market. She showed us that she was very sure of herself and showed the desire to learn all there was to learn in the options market or any other type of commodity she would try. Raising children gives you that ability to make fast and important decisions everyday just like one is faced with in the financial markets so I feel that that skill alone helps one make fast and smart decisions right away which is a skill that is unrealized. So I feel that she had by far the best presentation and showed us how to be very sure of yourself.
June 23rd, 2008 at 1:28 pm
I feel Carolyn may have received a lot of inspiration and a new perspective of Options Trading from her Conference attendance. She should be very successful in her trading career.
All the best.
June 23rd, 2008 at 1:40 pm
What compels me to vote for Carolyn, is that I am a stay at home mom. She was eloquent and made a wonderful presentation of why she was at the conference and how it has helped her reach the goal she has set for herself .
I’d like to get the free DVDs, because one, I dont have the funds to attend a conference and two, the DVDs would offer a wonderfuly opportunity for me to learn and start generating the income, I so badly need, from home.
I’ve been paper-trading since March and its been an up and down ride. I really wish I could improve my knowledge, so that I feel confident enough to make the jump and start trading and making money for real.
June 23rd, 2008 at 1:40 pm
Excellent video. She described the benifets she received at the superconference and she was very appreciative. She convinced me that I did miss a wonderful opportunity and wish I had been able to go. I had to miss due to a work related injury. I think the mental aspects of the trading business is sometimes left behind in the training, but not at OU. I am a student of the spotlight stragegy program and have learned a tremendious amount if information about option stragegies way above what I already knew. Ron is great at making sure you have learned the program, so I’m sure he did the same at the conference. I have also heard Person and some of the other instructors give presentations. Their knowledge is incrediable. I KNOW it had to be a super superconverence.
June 23rd, 2008 at 1:52 pm
Of all the videos, Carolyn’s is by far the best. She makes it seem like it is possible for anyone to master this subject.
I would like to attend this conference in the future, but for now my concentration is on making money in the market. That is what the tapes are designed to do - and with them this is what I will accomplish.
June 23rd, 2008 at 2:02 pm
I liked Carolyn’s video the best out of the ones presented. She like the general population that wanted to learn more about their finacial future. She was well spoke and to the point and makes me want to look into OU. Sounds like the OU Conference was a super success. Congrats to Ron, Brett, and the OU staff.
Thanks,
Mario
June 23rd, 2008 at 2:28 pm
I felt that Carolyn gave the clearest explanation of why she took the course, what her objectives were, and she was going to use what she learned. As one on a limited income I need to pick very carefully what I spend my money on. OU looks to me to be a good choice based on the testimonies of all the people who responded.
June 23rd, 2008 at 2:30 pm
simple explanations, to the point. Makes you to want to have not missed the OU super conferance.
Thanks.

I liked Carolyn’s video testimony because she represented many traders like myself that have had a modicum of success and seriously want to move towards trading full time. She really captured my attention when she mentioned that the trainers emphasized treating your trading as a business and risk management, two key factors for successful trading. It seems OptionsUniversity has an approach to options trading that resonates with me and that I have not been able to find with any of the other so-called gurus. I would like to receive the DVDs because I believe they will contain information that is not available anywhere else and the information that I need to seriously take my options trading to the next level.
June 23rd, 2008 at 3:07 pm
After listening to the participants, Carolyn clearly, in a no hype manner, stated her goals and how the conference met and exceeded her expectations. She seemed to be very level headed and it is clear that she is approaching her education in a business like fashion so that she can achieve financial security. More importantly, she seems to have the confidence that she will be able to meet her objectives with your information.
When you listen to her communicate the benefits that she learned such as understanding risk management and improving her mental focus, I felt that the information in the conference (and now on the DVD’s) will clearly give me the knowledge required to trade Options very successfully. I am looking for a mentor in the area of trading Options and I feel comfortable that OU can help move me forward in this area of my trading career. I am looking for an Options Trading Mentor and I look forward to evaluating OU program.
Thank you.

Carolyn did a wonderful job of describing exactly what stood out to her about the OU SuperConference. She was direct and to the point. I liked that about her.
I would like to win the DVD’s so that I could learn the information necessary to eventually become a full time trader. This is my dream.
I deserve to win the DVD’s because currently I do not have enough money to purchase the DVD’s, but would love to have them to start learning while I save up enough capital to start trading on my own. The OU DVD’s will teach me the necessary skills to learn how to become a full time trader. This is my dream and I hope that I win the DVD’s so that my dream will become reality soon.
Thank you
June 23rd, 2008 at 3:29 pm
After listening to the testimonies, Carolyn describes in such a sincere manor of the difficulty in finding honest and helpful teaching in this arena. She talks about both the mental aspect and the mechanics of the teachings and the effects on her and it certainly made me want to see the videos and have a desire to sign up for next years Super Conference.
Thanks

I liked the way that the husband & wife team was finishing each other’s sentences, but Carolyn’s video seemed to be the best. See is relaxed and talks about her lessons learned and goals without making extravagent claims. She mentions pivot points, which may pique the interest of someone did not know what they were or did not know how to use them. Carolyn is a newbie, so I hope that she wins the prize for a free seat at the conference next year. The market has a way of teaching us very hard lessons. With another year of experience I am sure that Carolyn will go to the conference next year with a new perspective that will further enrich her learning.
Personally, I have been trading for about 5 years with moderate success, although this year has been very tough. I have never attended any of the OU super-conferences, usually due to lack of funds or schedule conflicts. I would love to see what everyone is raving about!
Why do I deserve to win? I wish that everyone could win! But really, why does anyone deserve to win? You play the game and follow the rules (or laws, if you play rugby)… you put out 110% effort… maybe you get a few bad calls by the ref (Fed) that set you back, but you continue to struggle for that goal. If you do that every day, then you deserve to win. If you don’t win, then maybe you need new coaches… which is why I need those DVDs.
June 23rd, 2008 at 3:34 pm
Kudos to Carolyn!! She’s an articulate spokesperson for Options University, and deserving of the chance to attend again next year. Risk management, trading strategies and mastering the mental aspect of trading all combine to make a successful trader, and I believe Carolyn is well on her way to becoming one herself. She knows what she wants out of her trading business and to do it from the comforts of home. Well done!
Options is a strategy I’d like to add to my trading skills and I’d want the good people of Options University on my team of mentors. The DVD course would be a welcome addition to my trading library! As someone who has had to battle cancer, having another weapon in an arsenal against financial ruin would come in handy. I need all the help I can get to keep up the fight!!
June 23rd, 2008 at 3:49 pm
well they were harder to pick this time . i pick carolyn because she talk bout risk mng. that tells me she is willing to work at this . i can tell she was encourage by the conference, and i think she will work at it and she will be successful if u work with her she will be one of your better success storys . thx. jim talley
June 23rd, 2008 at 4:04 pm
Carolyn’s comments come over as credible. She probably has convinced many listeners of both the quality of the OU organisation and the event without giving a pushy sales talk.
I have been with OU for three years and went through all courses including the Mastery Course. Talked to Melanie ordering he CD’s but would like to receive the DVD’s as well. At 76 a trip to Florida from Germany was not in the cards.
Best regards
June 23rd, 2008 at 4:08 pm
I consider this one to be the best. She covered all the bases as far as persuasion goes. Her testimonial is thorough, complete with believable fervor and resolve.
Thanks for allowing comment…
June 23rd, 2008 at 4:48 pm
i liked carolyn’s best. she understands the need for more knowledge
and will use your conference to accomplish this. a small price to pay
for success. knowledge is power in anything you wish to be successful
in and i beleave she understands this. she will be back for more because
of her need for information to be successful.
i am new in option trading .i tried it once and went back to trading stocks
because i did not understand it that well.
i would like the dvds on ou conference. i am sure it would help me in
being able to trade options and this would make me very happy.
i beleave it is better to know both.
i would like to go to the comference next year
June 23rd, 2008 at 6:06 pm
Everyone clearly loved the Superconference and the great job that OU and all the presenters did. But Carolyn most simply and eloquently expressed the value of what she learned at the Superconference and appreciated what it will enable her to do. She also recognized the importance of the “softer” topics, like the mental apects of trading and treating her trading as a business. Carolyn is relatively new to options trading and deserves a free pass to the 2009 Superconference to help her build on the strong foundation that she got from OU this year and to help her achieve a successful career as an options trader.
For those of us who missed the 2008 Superconference and the 100 copies of the DVD, we each would like to win a set. But I am skeptical of the notion of most “deserving” to win; I think a random draw would be fairest.
Nevertheless, since you asked, I am retired; but my wife still works to support us. I trade to supplement our income. My goal is to earn enough in trading so that my wife can retire, too. And I am sure that the lessons from the Superconference DVD would help me reach that goal.
June 23rd, 2008 at 7:08 pm
Carolyn did the best job communicating her reasons for going to the Superconference and what she learned. Her communication style was sincere and pleasant, her facial expressions and eye contact were the best, and her vocal variety was easy to listen to. Her content supported her reasons for attending the conference. She stated the topics she found helpful in her own trading as she learned to trade as a business and the importance of money management to achieve her eventual goal of financial independence. Then she was especially excited about going home an trying the topics she learned like pivot points and she communicated confidence that she could do it as a result of attending the Superconference. Carolyn clearly did the best.
I would like you win the free DVD’s to reinforce the knowledge I gained in Ron’s Mastery Series. The Mastery Series was a great start for my future in trading, removing a couple of false starts with other training I tried. Additionally, with the excellent foundation the Mastery Series provided, the additional information from the Superconference, would help leverage that foundation along with Practical Applications course I’m currently in to help me transition to trading for a living so I can spend more time helping others in the community, get a better work-life balance, and prepare for retirement.
I don’t believe anyone deserves to win including myself, but it sure would be nice to win. By winning and studying the DVDs, they certainly would help me become more successful and for that I would be very grateful. With or without the free DVDs Ron has provided me excellent value in the training I’ve already attained. Ron, thank you for providing the realistic expectations and the potential for a different life.
June 23rd, 2008 at 7:16 pm
She gave a good summary of what a prospective attendee might expect to learn from attending the conference. She also seemed to be the person that is most representative of the typical trader trying to trade for him or herself that most traders can relate to. In addition, trying to raise children and trade for oneself at the same time is very difficult, so I consider her to be most worthy of winning a trip to next year’s conference. I think having the freedom to stay at home with the children would have a tremendously positive impact on her children.
I would like to win the DVDs because as a novice to options, it would greatly help me achieve my goal of trading for a living and provide me with additional weapons in my trading arsenal. I feel I deserve to win because I want to provide for my family and be there for my 3 year old son while he grows up, just like Carolyn wants to be there for her children. I don’t deserve so much as my wife and son deserve it, and I owe it to them because of everything they’ve given to me.
June 23rd, 2008 at 8:11 pm
Carolyn gave a good overview of the conference - and the best value proposition of the conference or the DVD set. Of all the individuals on video she is by far the most compelling, genuine and believable attendee. She is a composed and relaxed speaker.
Her confidence level came through from the super conference - and by far she would be the #1 spokesperson.
Some of the other attendees endorsements seems contrived. Hers did not.
I am currently enrolled in the Options Master Course and woud love to add the DVD of the Super Conference to my OU education.
June 23rd, 2008 at 8:12 pm
Carolyn did a good job summarized what she learned from the conference in a concise way. She pointed out a few important things about trading that are crucial to successful traders: Treat trading as business, Risk Management & there is mental aspect in trading. I also like her enthusiasm about learning and eventually be trading full time. She inspires me. I would like to be able to stay home to trade so I can be with the children as well. I like to be able to learn from the DVDsl.
June 23rd, 2008 at 8:17 pm
Carolyn gets my vote as she is very clear and concise. And she feels sincere and nice from the video.
Everyone who ventures into trading hopes to succeed and gain more wealth. Everyone who takes such a leap of faith also hopes for freedom to do what they want in life rather than be ordered around all their life. No successful trader will ever take it as a game and they all know it will not be an easy path. They all know continuous learning and passion are the only keys to success.
Although my vote goes to Carolyn, I wish the rest luck on getting picked for next year’s trip, and everyone here on getting the Dvds.
June 23rd, 2008 at 8:23 pm
This lady understands what she wants and when she gets it.
I would love to be able to experience the feeling that she got by attending the conference by attending next years conference.
In the mean time, I beleive I could maybe get a huge benefit form winning one of the DVD sets.
Thanks for the opportunity!
June 23rd, 2008 at 9:10 pm
I liked Carolyn’s video the best. She provided a brief background of herself and what her interests and aspirations were with respect to options trading. She was specific in listing the topics that she learned at the SuperConference — treating options as a business, risk management, and the mental aspects. She also acknowledged the quality of the various speakers. Carolyn also provided a summary of her take aways from the conference — to study pivot points, gaining of confidence based on the lessons learned. In addition she was also grateful for having attended the conference. I would vote for her to win a free trip to the Super Conference next year. Carolyn clearly articulated the benefits in attending this conference and appreciated the opportunity to attend this event.
I would like to win a free DVD set of the SuperConference. With the DVD set, I will be able to replay the various speakers several times. Through repetition I will be able to remember the lessons. My interests and aspirations are similar to those of Carolyn, and having a copy of this DVD set will help me become a better trader.
June 23rd, 2008 at 9:14 pm
Carolyn’s testimony was very forthright. Treating investing as a business is a good point, sounds like there were great points learned at the conference along with good speakers there as well.
June 23rd, 2008 at 9:23 pm
Carolyn’s description of the event was compelling, it made me wonder why I didn’t go myself. She was pleasant and informative, yet showed that she enjoyed the time she spent at the conference.
June 23rd, 2008 at 9:24 pm
I thought Carolyn had formulated her opinions logically and concisely before she stepped in front of the camera. She was therefore able to convey a lot more of her impressions in the short time she was given.
I would like to receive the DVDs because I reside outside the US and my work commitments and financial constraints limit my ability to attend overseas conferences.
June 23rd, 2008 at 9:26 pm
Carolyn struck me as being the “real deal” and very deserving of your invitation for next year. Someone with the desire to improve their livelihood through trading of options and apparently has discovered very successful techniques with the instruction of OU. Her testimony reflects nothing but good vibs for the course work and people associated with it.
My experiences to date with options could best be described by a caption I once saw on a poster. “Just when I understood how the game was played, they changed the rules!” I doubt that the rules really changed but rather I just don’t know them. I have come to realize that relying on subscription tippsters, however well intentioned, is getting me nowhere. Your DVD set sounds like it could be a lifestyle changing event and I would like to experience that.
June 23rd, 2008 at 11:33 pm
Carolyn was genuine, and really summed up what the benefits of attending were.
I was unable to attend this year and would love to win the DVD’s and see what I missed out on. Then bring the 2009 conference!
June 24th, 2008 at 4:51 am
Right On
June 24th, 2008 at 7:32 am
I thought Carolyn did an excellent job of summarizing her experience with this event. She explained some of the take-aways that adds credibility of the “worthwhileness” of attending the seminars. I would like to hear her comments next year after a full year of applying what she has learned at this conference.
Unfortunately, I was not able to attend this conference, but hope that I could hear it with this “lottery”. I don’t think I “deserve” to win, who does on a free shot at winning….but it would be nice.
June 24th, 2008 at 8:54 am
Carolyn’s testimony is encouraging because though successful, she still found the learning extremely valuable. Her one statement about treating it more like a business was something most of us overlook as traders.
June 24th, 2008 at 9:27 am
The fact Carolyn spoke of the importance of risk management and the mental aspect of actual trading means she is on the right track. These are two of the most critical attributes of a successful trade. Also, her realization of the importance of pivot points is significant.
June 24th, 2008 at 10:22 am
Just superb:nothing to say anything
June 24th, 2008 at 10:28 am
I like Carolyn’s video as she is clear and concise in her thoughts and presents it well. Her convictions on the program and how it has helped her trade and been successful at it makes me also want to be a success like her as I too would like to trade and make trading as a business and have a better quality of life and be able to work from home, and look after my aged parents.
Why I would like to win the DVD’s are because I live outside the US and it is not easy to attend the confrences in the US as financially it would be a burden.
June 24th, 2008 at 11:10 am
I viewed all the videos and they were all good. The best thing since homemade bread. Carolyn said the most in the least amount of time and she is very focused on her goals. I have never traded options and just recently started researching covered calls as a means to supplement my mother’s retirement income as she is in an assisted living center and has no short term memory. I want to acquire the most information that I possibly can on investment strategy and income preservation. It would be absolutely wonderful to win These DVDs for the valuable information I am sure they contain and also because I did not even know they were available for purchase.
June 24th, 2008 at 2:59 pm
In Carolyn’s video she describes how from a beginning trader the Options University Superconference has opened her eyes to the possibilities of trading. Her commendable goal is to be a stay at home mom and make her living from trading. Her genuine delivery and description of the things she has learnt is what compeled me to vote for her video.
June 24th, 2008 at 4:08 pm
Excellent description of where she is currently at in her trading level and where she wants to go and how to get there.
June 24th, 2008 at 5:42 pm
Carolyn helped me see a way to make a steady income from my home without sitting constantly at the computer which is critical. It was clear, concise and interesting. I would like to win the DVDs to assist in my efforts to be consistently profitable; this is critical for me since I am disabled any unable to work full time. Thank you for your consideration
June 24th, 2008 at 7:12 pm
Carolyn would be a great spokesperson for Options University. She seemed like she was walking away from the Superconference with all the tools and knowledge that she was looking for and whole lot more. To be able to go back home and have the confidence to use that knowledge to be able to reach her goals.
I would like to win the DVDs because I know that there is a ton of knowledge in them that you can not find anywhere else. I would study them everyday as if my life depended on them, so that I could reach my dreams and goals as well.
June 24th, 2008 at 9:49 pm
Carolyn was clear and concise. She was very genuine in her comments and praise of Options University. She came out of the conference very positive and that it would move her to the next level.
I would like to win the DVD’s, I know there is a lot of good information that I could get out of them, and they would help me become a much better and a more confident trader.
June 25th, 2008 at 11:32 pm
Carolyn gave a good summary of the strategies taught at the conference and the benefits of what the conference can offer. Like her I too would like to be able to trade full time and profitably. I would surely like to be able to view and learn from the conference.
June 26th, 2008 at 12:38 am
Carolyn gave a clear reason for attending the conference based on her backgrouind in trading and what she had hoped to learn from it.
She then stated that her goals were met by attending and she advanced herself in the path to trading full time. This is the best testimony one can give for the material and is what all of us hope to attain when we accomplish what we set out to do.
Although I did not attend the conference last year I did buy the DVD set and got a great deal out of it from Price Headley, Dave elliott, Ron, Jon and Larry. Needless to say I have put this knowledge to good use in trading. This year I was hoping to buy the DVD set again. But to my disappointment , it was sold out. I wish OU would make some more copies. Just the roster of the presenters speak volumes of the quality of the material. I hope I am llucky enough to win aa set.
June 26th, 2008 at 1:02 am
I think hers is the best because she is focused, and it came across that she found the OU material and superconference to be valuable. She also pointed out that it was not a wolf in sheep’s clothing, something that certainly any ticket purchaser would be interested in.
I would like to have the DVD’s to help me to make a living for myself. Although I have a degree, I am doing physical work, and this would help me to have stronger knowledge to start trading again sometime, as soon as I have the capital.
