Turtle Options Information<br />

(Go Through Qual and get them in front of a computer)<br />

We are going to be covering a trader by the name of Russell Sands, I’m<br />

sure you have heard of him right? I’m sure you have heard of the Turtle<br />

Traders right?<br />

No? Ok well I will give you the cliff note version… (Even if they say they have heard of the<br />

Turtles, tell the story)<br />

The story of the “Turtles” goes back to the late 80’s. Richard Dennis was a famous Chicago<br />

trader and money manager, Richard was famous because he turned a $400 family loan into<br />

well over $200 million in just 5 years. Richard firmly believed that successful trading<br />

methods could be taught to anyone no matter what their background was. His partner<br />

disagreed, and they were having this argument in front of a turtle pond in Singapore So<br />

Richard turned to his partner and they made a million dollar bet that they could farm<br />

traders like they farm turtles in Singapore. So they put out an ad in the wall street journal<br />

and recruited 14 people who had absolutely no experience trading and taught them his<br />

trading methods. He called them his "Turtles" and, after a brief training period of 2 weeks<br />

and then handed them a million dollars to trade with! Guess how many of them made<br />

money?<br />

All of them, they all made money, some more than others and where the real success<br />

came from is with the discipline and who ever followed the strategies and methods to a<br />

“T” actually made the most money.<br />

Russell Sands is the only “Original Turtle” teaching these methods and has been taking<br />

small groups under his wing for the past 20-years, teaching them the Turtles methodology.<br />

He has taken the Turtles method, which was structured for the futures commodities<br />

market, and created a Hybrid to work in the Options Market as well. Russell, being the<br />

professional and<br />

forward thinker that he is, knew that the Options market is one he needed to diversify to<br />

and that there was a lot of money to be made! Pretty impressive right?<br />

Basically, what Russell is looking at is about 35 different ETF’s at any given time, anything<br />

from Energies, Real Estate, Retail, Interest Rates, Banking, Metals, Currencies, Global<br />

Funds and Utilities.
