My BIG Mistake: How I Lost Nearly $300,000
From Winter Park, Florida – Hello…
I wanted to take a quick second to introduce myself.
My name is Todd Skousen, and I’m Chief Creative Officer at The Oxford Club.
Today, CEO and Executive Publisher Julia Guth has handed me the reins of Market Wake-Up Call so I can tell you about a life-changing experience that happened to me… and why I’m inviting you to join me for a critical upcoming event.
Join your fellow Club Members for the LIVE Election Survival Summit – the day after the election – on Wednesday, November 4, at 1 p.m. ET. As your host, I’ll be bringing together some very special guests.
This event is going to be extremely important for all Club Members. Why?
Because we’re seeing chaos once again.
A new explosion in coronavirus cases across the U.S. and Europe… more layoffs by major U.S. companies… renewed lockdowns and restrictions… and a heated election that is going to be as divisive as any in my lifetime.
There’s chaos ahead, folks.
And in this week’s Market Wake-Up Call interview, host and Associate Franchise Publisher Rachel Gearhart sits down with Bryan Bottarelli, co-founder of The War Room, to talk about this upcoming chaos.
“We all know 2020… has just been a complete dumpster fire,” Bryan tells Rachel in today’s discussion. “And now we have this election that could be the grand finale of an otherwise insane year.”
Listen, just like you, I know firsthand how mentally draining it can be when the markets turn against you.
Back when the coronavirus pandemic hit the U.S. in March, I saw my accounts drop by nearly $300,000.
As someone someone who’s building a house and has a baby on the way, I had a lump in my throat.
And I made what I now know was a mistake.
I approached the chaos the old-fashioned way.
I closed my eyes and covered my ears, hoping the market would come back over the long term.
In the end, it did.
I regained all my lost gains and then some.
But what I missed was that I actually could have used the chaos in the markets to my advantage.
I could have turned it into one of the great wealth-building moments of my life.
How, you ask?
Well, here’s what happened…
When the coronavirus crash first hit, I started following two renowned traders named Bryan Bottarelli and Karim Rahemtulla.
Nervous at first, I just watched them make recommendations to their followers during the crash.
And I have to say, the experience they were delivering through the crash was night and day compared with what I was doing.
While my stocks were all down dramatically, these guys made 79 trade recommendations… of which 74 were winners.
That’s a 94% win rate.
Their average gain during the crash was 17.6% every three days.
So consider that for a moment…
While my stocks were getting crushed… these guys were delivering win after win.
And when I saw the comments from their followers, I was blown away by the positivity I was seeing.
They weren’t staring at an ocean of red like I was.
Instead, they were EXCITED.
Look at this message from Vincent on February 24, the first day of the crash:
For the first time in the history of my portfolio, my balance went up after the market dropped 900 points.
Or how about this one from Adrien on March 12, when the market was down thousands of points:
Bryan has me pumped, and I have to keep running around the house because I’m having so much fun here. I can’t even sleep, just waiting for the next day. The weekend almost killed me… LOL.
Or this one from David on March 10:
I have to admit, had it not been for this room, I would be in a state of panic and heart attack. I’m relaxed and enjoying this ride!
Think about that!
Who in mid-March was running around their house in excitement?
Certainly not me!
And finally, this one from George L. on March 13 was the craziest:
In the last 14 trading days, my investment account has risen 704%. Yesterday, I solidly joined the seven-figure club. This works, folks!
That’s just plain ridiculous.
During the coronavirus crash, this man was able to increase his account more than 700% and become a millionaire!
Honestly… it was phenomenal to watch.
Their ability to not just survive a financial collapse… but actually profit during a crash was amazing.
My only wish is that I had the guts back then to actually trust Bryan and Karim.
Instead, I watched from the sidelines.
I did fine with my old tried-and-true approach of holding on and hoping for the best.
And when the market came back, so did my accounts.
But now, with chaos coming once again…
With an election that could be the most chaotic in history…
I’m listening to what Bryan and Karim have to say this time. So is the Club’s Executive Team. And I hope you will too.
“I want to make sure the [Club] Members are prepared for what we have staring us in the face,” Bryan tells Rachel in the video. “Because if they’re not properly prepared, I fear that there could be a lot of money lost… And if you’re not prepared, you’re going to be punched in the face.”
And that’s exactly why I’m hosting our LIVE Election Survival Summit – the day after the election – on November 4 at 1 p.m. ET.
I want every single Oxford Club Member to be there.
You can’t afford not to.
Personally, my trading account only just recovered from the first crash. With the market in turmoil once again, I feel like an amateur boxer who just miraculously survived a round with Mike Tyson being asked to jump back in the ring for a second.
However, there is hope.
During the free event, which we will livestream in real time, we will analyze the market’s reaction to the election… Bryan and Karim will give you live picks… and we’ll talk about their strategies for the coming months.
If you want to thrive in the next few months, you absolutely must be there.
Bottom line…
We’re putting together something truly special that will be the biggest financial event of 2020.
Bryan and Karim will be with you every step of the way.
And they’ll be giving you their unfiltered opinions on where the best opportunities are in the market, how you can best position your portfolio and what to do in the months ahead.
Since it’s live… there’s no telling what will happen.
But after seeing what these guys could do during the worst crash of my lifetime…
I’m 100% certain they’ll be able to take whatever the market gives us on November 4… and turn it into moneymaking opportunities for everyone who joins us.
Remember, the fun starts on Wednesday, November 4, at 1 p.m. ET.
I hope to see you there!
