Here’s why I think you should be buying gold in 2024.
Gold isn’t digital, it’s physical. Because it’s physical, it can’t be manipulated, it can’t go bankrupt, and it can’t be created out of thin air.
The thing is, digital money carries risks.
And even though we all benefit in many ways from the conveniences of digital currency, we still need to protect ourselves from the vulnerabilities of digital currency–and that’s where gold comes into play.
Gold is something we can rely on–especially when the dollar is doing all kinds of funny things.

Should you buy silver or gold? How do you know which precious metal is best for you?
Gold is generally more conservative, and can be used to protect your purchasing power. Gold is better for saving than for trade and is also easier to store. Silver, however, is better for trade, is easier to acquire, and you can get more metal for your dollar.
Let’s talk about the major differences between these two metals in detail and really unpack this.
Why are people buying gold right now? Today I want to share the one reason I believe people are buying up gold right now in the United States. And that is that gold is resilient against the dollar.
The thing that’s often ignored by analysts is that even during economic and world events that should have hurt the value of gold badly, gold remained resilient, and it’s likely to continue to do so.
You can think of owning gold like having an emergency fund of actual cash. It’s for emergencies. If the value of the dollar was ever seriously compromised, owning physical gold could be an enormous boon for your family.
There probably is a recession coming around the corner in 2025, which can leave people feeling scared. But I’m here to tell you that you can prepare for it.

There are three main strategies that I recommend to my students to take advantage of a recession. Once you learn these three strategies you can get more advanced with them, but here’s where I’d start. In this video I’ll also cover the strategy I do NOT recommend you try during a recession.
Today we’re going to be talking about why a retailer like Costco is selling gold. Wells Fargo recently estimated that Costco is selling as much as $200 million in gold bars monthly. That amount of money in the gold market is not unusual. But what is unusual is that people are buying their gold from a place like Costco, rather than from a metals dealer. So why is this trend happening, and what can it tell us about the gold market? Let’s get into it.
The CNBC article mentioned: “Costco selling as much as $200 million in gold bars monthly, Wells Fargo estimates” https://cnb.cx/3SFmoQt

When you start trading, you might fight that your desire to do well financially will drive you to do things that aren’t rational, making emotional decisions rather than looking at the facts that are right in front of you. We have to ask the Lord daily to remove the pride in our hearts that can be detrimental to our trading journeys. Following the rules and guidelines is trading is key to success.
Is it really worth it to invest in gold? One of the greatest misconceptions when it comes to precious metals investing is that it’s primarily a passive investment. Here are three reasons why gold’s enduring value makes it a compelling investment to consider in 2024.
Should Christians invest in the stock market? That depends. If you can follow a very particular set of rules, put your trust in God rather than in money, lay aside fear and greed and make educated decisions with your money, and are willing to go through a process of pursuing profit in a legitimate business opportunity–then stock trading could give you the potential to change your life.

A down market is an opportunity–when you have the proper skill-sets!
Today we’re going to dive into some interesting facts from past recessions to really help us get a feel for the market tone we’re in and whether we ought to be buying stocks or bonds right now…
…or should we be trading options (puts) and inverse ETFs?
We’ll cover:
Today we’re going to talk about how to know WHEN a recession is coming. We’ll do this by using specific tools that show us where we are in a market cycle, and more specifically, when we might be moving into a recession.
In this week’s episode, I’ll take a look at some key charts that show the overall health of the market. This has to do with market tone, and how there are several indicators that give us clues as to where we’re heading. Armed with this information, you’re empowered to make educated decisions about what the market is most likely going to do in the future.
Your neighbor might be scared to death about the thought of a recession, but when you have the proper skill-sets you’ll be able to see all kinds of opportunities in every part of a market cycle—up, down, or sideways—bring it on!
We’ll cover:
There are a few common mistakes amateur traders make. The good news is, it’s not difficult to avoid these common mistakes once you know what they are!
In this week’s episode, I share my thoughts on the major differences between the professional and the amateur. (Spoiler alert: You want to be trading like a pro.)
We’ll cover:
Do you want to learn how to trade like a pro? It's not as difficult as you might think, but it does require the right skillset and education.
In this week's podcast episode, I share my thoughts on the best way to learn how to trade. Here's a sneak peek of what you can expect:
Join me on the podcast and discover the best way to learn how to trade!
Today we’re going to talk about what to do when you see a recession coming. I recommend you do three things. What are they? Listen to the episode to find out!
In this episode we’ll cover:
To tie this whole thing up, I would just say this: Don’t panic! Recessions aren’t the end of the world. When you learn how to invest properly, you’ll actually start seeing them as an opportunity.

Today on the show I’m talking to my lifelong buddy, Dr. Myron Golden, about cultivating abundance.
One way to understand how we cultivate abundance is by looking at how we shouldn’t do it. To understand this, we can look at the first temptation in history–the temptation to focus on lack.
Let’s dive into what we can learn about cultivating more abundance in our lives today by learning what NOT to do in this very special episode with Dr. Myron Golden.
Enjoy the Episode!

“You will have many voices that will try to derail you, but you have to be firm and you have to know why you’re in business. Why are you in business? Is it money? Buying a bigger house, a better car? Is that it? Or is there a greater purpose? And if you know what that greater purpose is, then you are responsible to God to fulfill that purpose.” Anne Beiler
Welcome to SEASON 4 of the podcast! I can’t wait to jump back into talking about business, entrepreneurship, faith and how they all interrelate in powerful ways.
Today I’m talking to one of the most amazing business people I’ve ever interviewed–yet also one of the most humble: Auntie Anne Beiler. You probably know her as Auntie Anne of Auntie Anne’s pretzels.
In this inspiring yet highly practical episode, we cover:
Her new book, Overcome and Lead, is about the story of how she started Auntie Anne’s, which you can find at auntieannebeiler.com.

When I launched TRADEway back in the early 2000’s, I introduced twenty-one strategies for short-term stock trading.
Now TRADEway has dozens more than that available to our clients.
You might be wondering, ‘How can you even master that many strategies?’
You learn them one by one, little by little, line by line. It’s not something you do overnight.
It’s a journey!
And we have a system for it–the foundational courses you would start with are called Step 1, Step 2, Step 3, and Step 4. You build on those for anything else you do in our system. We have all sorts of support available, including our licensed Coaches.
Remember, you’re not going to get it all at once. It is good to learn as much of the language of Wall Street as quickly as you can, though.
Each strategy has its own set of rules, and each strategy should be practiced first without money (i.e. paper trading), and then practiced with a small amount of real money after that.
These strategies give you the potential to change your family’s financial future.
So why do we teach over 40 strategies? We offer this so you can find your own investment style. This trading style will be unique to YOU!
Let’s dive into what it means to have an investment style and how to find yours!
You might think that bear markets and bull markets just sort of happen because of supply and demand and different issues going on in our country and around the world.
But in reality…
The Fed (The Federal Reserve of the United States) causes it.
Let’s dive into how this all works.
The Fed causes big up and down moves in the market.
And if you can learn to recognize what the Fed is thinking, what they’re doing, and what they’re about to do, that is a really important beginner concept to really help your stock trading.
HOW do you do this? By learning how to read between the lines of news stories about the Fed.
In this episode we’ll be talking about:
Let’s talk about how the Fed moves the market (or maybe we should say how the Fed manipulates the market, right?)
Here at TRADEway we teach over 40 patterns that stocks make. Now, I don’t recommend trying to learn all those at once.
Don’t even try!
Instead, focus on learning just a few new strategies, start making money with those first, and then expand out into other, more advanced strategies.
Today we’re going to talk about two patterns that might be new to you:
We’ll be covering what these patterns look like, their perfect buy points, what to look for in the stock’s past, and more!
In order to know when to actually place a trade, I think there are 3 steps:
Each pattern has its own buy and sell points. That means that for each stock pattern you memorize, you also need to memorize the correct buy points for that shape. What are the best patterns to use? And what are the buy points that go with each pattern? That’s what we’re going to cover today!
If someone asks me, “Can you tell the future,” my answer is “Not all the time.”
When you’re learning how to trade stocks, essentially what you’re learning is how to predict what will happen in the future–some of the time.
As stock traders we’re in the business of future speculation. We look at what’s happening now, and we make educated predictions about what will happen next.
Stocks make patterns–you have to admit that.
And you’ve got a couple of tools that help you see these patterns. What are those tools and how can you start using them? That’s what we’re going to talk about today.
I can remember when I was in the MBA program at Baylor, a professor gave us quite a few articles to read.
These articles seemingly proved mathematically that a chart will not predict the future.
So according to these authors, if you chart the price points of the stock going up and down, it will not predict the future.
Well, as a young man I sort of doubted whether that was true.
That’s because at that very same time my grandfather was making a lot of money in the stock market. And he seemed to be predicting what the stocks were going to do.
Now, his trades were not day trades, but he wasn’t investing either. He would get in and out of the stocks at opportune moments.
I knew that my professor was missing something.
But I didn’t really know what it was. Something in me just didn't believe what he said.
So who was right? My professor or my grandfather?
Well it turns out they were both right. That’s because no one predicts what a stock will do using only a chart.
What is it that makes stocks do what they do?
It turns out there are 3 things that influence what stocks do… These three things are what drive the market.
Want to find out what those three things are? Listen to today’s episode!
In The Parable of the Vineyard Laborers, the landowner goes out and hires some people early in the morning. He tells them he’ll give them a day’s wage.
They agree to that and shake hands.
Then later in the day he hires some more people. And still later, when there was only about an hour of daylight left, he hired another group of people to work in the vineyard.
At the end of the day he paid them all the same wage.
The workers who had been working since the early morning got angry about this. They said, “These last have wrought but one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us, which have borne the burden and heat of the day.” (Matthew 20:12, KJV)
What does this parable have to teach us about finances, investing and how we should conduct ourselves? We’re going to unpack all that and more in today’s episode.
In the Book of Acts, the early Christians sold lands that they owned and gave that to other Christians who were in need.
That sounds a little bit like socialism, doesn’t it?
On the other hand, in the Parable of the Talents, the man is rewarded for being enterprising or capitalistic.
So which one does the Bible promote–socialism or capitalism? And how can we apply this to our own personal financial lives and how we share money with others?
That’s what today’s episode is all about!
To reach your greatest potential, no matter what your field, you’ve got to think like an entrepreneur.
But most of us don’t do that. Why?
The problem is that our country’s educational system is teaching us that the best thing is to go out and get a degree and go work for a boss.
But if we look at the Bible, it says something different. The Bible says that a job, or a wage, is a good thing if we’re starting out–but it’s not the end. It’s a means to the end.
What should our goal be if not to get a good job? Our goal should be to start a business–one that you own.
So how can you start to think like an entrepreneur and activate God’s plan for your financial and career life? That’s what today’s episode is all about!
Although our show is all about trading and finance, today’s topic is about a much bigger picture. Today on the show we’re talking about reaching your greatest potential in the most important areas of your life.
I’ll be covering:
Listen to the episode “Are You Actualizing Your Family’s Potential?” now!
Right now we’ve got a volatile market, high inflation, and the Fed’s ramping up the interest rates. So this is the perfect time to talk to you about keys to success in a bearish market.
The fact is, right now it’s just a difficult market to trade in for the average person.
When you have the right skill sets, though, it’s a whole different ball game.
When you have the right skill sets, you’ll be able to say, “Well, it’s an up or a down market, and neither are bad because I have skills to make money in an up market and I have the potential to make money in a down market.”
And that’s the mindset you’ll have once you’ve had a great stock trading education.
In this episode we’ll cover:
Remember–don’t just jump out and reach for trades because you like to be in the market. Wait for the perfect trade!
When you first get interested in stock trading, you might find friends and family coming out of the woodwork to give you advice.
Some of it’s good, but most of it’s bad!
That’s because trading does not work like the world tells you it works.
So what IS good advice for a beginning stock trader? That’s what we’re going to cover in todays’ episode.
In this episode I’ll cover
Did you know that God will always bring some tribulation and trouble to a new entrepreneur before He brings a great amount of success?
Your patience will be tested before the Lord grants you the privilege of being a steward of a lot of his money.
The Bible assures us of this.
If you embrace this and understand it, God may well turn you into an entrepreneur. Living it gives you the potential to be turned into a wealthy one.
How do you know if God is testing you as an entrepreneur? And what can you do to come through the tribulations and ultimately find success and a safe haven?
Listen to this week’s podcast episode to find out!
In this episode we’ll cover
“The whole thing is God’s business. It’s not ours. We’re in business with Him because we’re his children. It’s not ours. We’re just stewards of His stuff. It really helps to understand that money is just a tool, it’s His money, and all the assets are His assets, and we’re just working with Him in His family business.” -David Mitchell
Listen to the episode “How to Know if God is Testing You as an Entrepreneur” now!
“The sittin’ and the waitin’ is important. You have to sit and wait for all factors to come together to merge into the perfect play.” -Jesse Livermore
One of the most important traits of a great trader is patience. You have to know how to sit on your hands and wait.
It takes patience to not be in the market all the time. It takes patience to wait for a great play.
And if you don’t have the patience to wait for a great play, you’ll reach for a mediocre play. (And you really don’t want to do that.)
Jesse Livermore knows something about waiting.
He predicted the crash of 1929. As a matter of fact he made $100,000,000 in one day (that’s about 1.7 billion dollars today) shorting stocks right before the crash.
What did Jesse Livermore know that other traders didn’t? That’s what today’s episode is all about.
Listen to the Episode Now!
One of the great keys to successful trading is “playing the math.”
This means you have a SMALL expense if your trades go the wrong way and you have to stop it out.
And you have a LARGE win when it goes your way.
Now this is the important part–you do NOT want to win small.
You’ve gotta win BIG. And by that I mean you need to let the stock go all the way to your sell point before you jump out of it.
This is how seasoned traders think. But there’s one thing in particular that makes the mindset of a seasoned trader different. What is it? We’re going to find out in today’s episode…
In this episode I’ll cover …
And much more!
Listen to the episode “What Makes the Mindset of a Seasoned Trader Different?” now!
Did you know that the amount of wealth that you have the potential to create for you and your family is directly proportional to the amount of educated risk you are willing to take?
If you’re afraid of losing money in the stock market, you’re not alone. But have you ever thought about WHY it scares you?
Have you ever questioned whether that makes logical sense?
The thing is, the American school systems have been systematically rooting out the entrepreneurial spirit of America for the last 50 years.
Whether it’s first grade, twelfth grade or the college systems, there’s hardly anything at all taught about entrepreneurship, about money, or about how money works in our schools.
Even in an MBA program you’re mostly learning how to work for a higher boss in a big corporation–not how to run a business yourself.
But if you go back just a little farther in history, the original American style was to have a family business where each generation teaches the next generation the family skill sets.
Over time, those skill sets would add up and become incredible–so that the young people coming up in the family business have a strategic and competitive advantage in the marketplace.
(A very different way of looking at things–and, as we’ll see–a more profitable way.)
Which attitude are you fostering in your life? In your family? In your business?
In this very important episode I’ll cover …
And much more!
Listen to the episode “I’m Scared to Death of Losing Money in the Stock Market!!” now!
Today we’re talking about 8 tips for protecting your trades. Some of these are tools, some of these are rules, okay? 😉
Some of these took me 40 years to learn, but if you listen to today’s podcast episode you can learn them in 20 minutes. How’s that for a deal?
In this episode I’ll cover…
What I tell the students I personally coach about trading
Why you shouldn’t trade with a trading partner called “Surely”
The BEST way to become a really good professional trader
Why keepin’ the rules is what it’s all about
Why watching a 1-minute chart is gonna scare you to death (don’t do it)
Why getting out early is the key to being a good trader (now I don’t mean too early…)
And much more!

A lot of people think they can get up in the morning, get on the internet, place a trade, run off to work and live happily ever after.
But guess what?
That’s not going to work.
To make money in the stock market, you need real knowledge about stock patterns and how to use them to place your trades strategically.
Next you need to learn what good buy and sell points are for the various stock patterns.
Because each pattern has its own perfect buy and sell points.
In today’s Word on Investing episode, we’re going to talk about what some of these common stock patterns are, and the buy and sell points that go along with them…
In this episode I’ll cover…
Listen to the episode “What Are Buy and Sell Points & How Do They Work?” now!
“Through wisdom is a house built, and by understanding it is established; by knowledge shall thy chambers be filled with all precious and pleasant riches.” Proverbs 24:3-4
Does having wealth make you evil?
So many preachers have been teaching Christians through the years that…
Well, I’m here to tell you that you can free yourself from the thought that “it just doesn't feel right for me to try to be wealthy as a Christian.”
Because you're not supposed to try.
You're supposed to accomplish it. And the BIBLE BACKS THAT UP.
Today on the podcast we’re talking about 3 common roadblocks to finding financial abundance in your life.
In this episode I’ll cover…
So let’s get down to the bottom of whether money is evil or a blessing from God (because it can’t be both)…
Listen to the episode “3 Common Roadblocks to Finding Financial Abundance in Your Life” now!
Today I want to talk to you about tried and true stock patterns, and which ones still work!
When it comes to stock patterns, it’s easy to go out and buy books filled with pages of patterns that date back all the way to the early 1900’s. The problem with these books is that a lot of those patterns don’t work anymore.
Why don’t they work? Surely if these patterns are in a well-reviewed book it would be a home run… right?
The answer might not be that big of a surprise… it’s all thanks to the INTERNET!
We have online brokerage houses everywhere and hundreds of thousands of people lining up to jump in, place a trade and then go to work. The internet changed the VOLUME of trading and because of it the volume is SO MUCH larger than it was decades ago. In a nutshell, the change in volume has made a lot of these patterns obsolete because they just don’t work anymore.
Ready to learn about the ones that DO work? Make sure to listen to today’s episode!
In this episode, I’ll cover…
It’s easy now-a-days for people with no experience in trading to open a brokerage account and just jump in, buy a few shares, and then go about their day. There is a reason the first hour the market is open is called amateur hour… it’s because of this very reason! All of the amateurs who heard a “hot tip” or read an article about a great company are jumping into the market with very little skills or knowledge.
We want everyone investing to have the knowledge to be successful, which is why in today’s episode I am going to be talking about what steps you can take to become a knowledgeable stock trader… and how we at TRADEway can come alongside you to help you on your journey!
In this episode I’ll cover…
If you’ve been looking at the S&P 500 or watching the news at all, you know that we’re in a bear market crash right now.
Many have been asking the question “What does this even mean?”
In today’s episode, we’re going to tackle the definition of a Recession and how the NBER (National Bureau of Economic Research) is changing the definition.
We’re also going to take a look at our economy and the current market conditions. We know that it can look bleak and scary at times, which is why we are going to share some things you can do to prepare and to potentially even make money during a down market!
In this episode I’ll cover…
We’ve got an episode today that I’m really excited about. We’re talking to Chris Lepore, the Director of Operations at Tradier (our Brokerage firm of choice). Tradier is one of our favorite brokerage companies, and we love to tell our students about them.
Today we’re going to be talking about how Tradier integrates with our charting software, Charts by TRADEway, making it so you can place trades right from our charting platform.
Tradier is HUGE on delivering quality customer service to their clients (something not every broker prioritizes), and it’s one of the things that makes them such a standout brokerage firm.

I’ve heard it so many times.
When it comes to physical gold–I’m talking coins, bars, rounds, and so on–many economists out there disparage it as nothing more than a relic.
But are they right? Is gold truly nothing more than a relic?
In this episode of The Word on Investing, I address two things head on: 1. The idea that gold is actually a preferable currency for the majority of people, but why many people MIGHT NOT even realize it. And 2. Why gold ACTUALLY carries an enormous amount of power in the 21st Century, and why it’s NOT some ancient relic!
Gold acts as a protector against loose monetary policies, something we’re all too familiar with at this point.
In fact, not only is gold a protector, but it was put here by the Lord Himself as the purest form of money, ever–which should tell us something about gold’s potentially pivotal importance in each of our lives.
I want to help you understand the power of gold, and simplify precious metals as much as possible for you and your family.
In this episode I’ll cover
How our MONEY preferences were involuntarily changed 5 decades ago, and how it has altered our perception of value.
Promises that were made (and broken) by our government, and the performance of our money ever since.
Where our sense of the value of money comes from (this might scare you…)
Listen to the episode “The Power of Gold in the 21st Century with Ben Mitchell” now!
“And Joseph gathered corn as the sand of the sea, very much, until he left numbering; for it was without number.” Genesis 41:49
Is your family prepared for a time of famine? If not, how do you prepare? If the market does crash soon, what should you do?
During a recession a lot of people are going to get hurt, but you don’t have to be one of those people.
If you’re a little bit worried about YOUR money right now, let’s take a look at what happens to people who don’t store up–who don’t preserve their wealth.
Have you noticed grocery and gas prices going up? (It’s hard not to.)
When inflation gets too out of control, it’s bad. Throughout history there have been times when inflation has gotten so far out of control that it’s devastating to an entire country. People can no longer afford to buy the things they need.
During the USSR days in Russia, the Soviet ruble became so inflated that people had to bring barrels and barrels of cash–literally wheelbarrows of cash just to buy a loaf of bread.
Now, we’re not there yet, praise the Lord.
Today on the podcast I’m going to talk about what the book of Genesis can teach us about recessions, inflation and economic bubbles.
We'll learn how to handle unusual economic times–and how you and your family can be prepared for them, making it possible to actually prosper during an economic crisis.

For YEARS we dreamed of having our own charting platform at TRADEway.
But not just any kind of charting platform….
We wanted one built especially for our coaches and our students. We wanted it to incorporate all of the amazing things we teach AND at the same time making it as simple as possible to use. We wanted it to work equally well for new traders AND also be able to do all the complex things that our more advanced traders require out of a trading platform.
Just a few short months ago (Dec 2021) it became a reality for us, because we launched Charts by TRADEway, which is a next generation stock and options trading platform.
And today I have the pleasure of talking to the lead developer of this platform, the talented Rance Maschek.
One of the most unique features of Charts is that it’s a platform that has coaching baked into it–making it quicker and easier to trade in the markets, analyze those decisions, and make sure you’re constantly improving as a trader.
In this episode, we cover

I’m excited about today because we’re finishing up a two part series–an interview with David and Lori Benham.
Now if you missed yesterday, please go check it out. We talked about the Benham family’s story, which is quite amazing. It’s a story of persecution in modern day America and how they overcame it by standing strong in their faith.
This family has achieved so much in the business world, but also in ministry. And I’m happy to have Lori Benham on the show today about a business she started and the steps she took to make the dream business she had in her head a reality.
Lori’s story is truly a step by step blueprint for how to start a business, how to stay motivated, and why it’s so important to work from the heart.
“When you start thinking, ‘How can I bless others?’ ‘How can I make their lives better?’ ‘What can this look like if I take what I have and pass it on?’... it starts breeding all these bright ideas.” Lori Benham

“I am on a mission, and my work is worship.” David Benham
We’ve got some very special guests with us today… David and Lori Benham!
David Benham is one half of The Benham Brothers. David and his twin brother, Jason Benham, are former professional baseball players, nationally acclaimed entrepreneurs and best- selling authors.
Their family’s first real big success happened through their real estate business which grew to 100 offices in 35 states. Their company topped several charts, including Inc. Magazine’s “Fastest Growing Companies”, The Wall Street Journal’s “Top 5 Real Estate Agents in America” list, and the US Chamber of Commerce’s “Top Small Business of the Year”.
All of this led to a huge opportunity–a reality show on HGTV in 2014. (More on that later…hint: there’s a plot twist). The Benham Brothers have also appeared on Fox Business, ABC Nightline, CNN, Fox News, and Good Morning America.
Inspired by the many lessons they learned along the way, the brothers launched Expert Ownership, a coaching program for Christian entrepreneurs to help them make a bigger impact on the world, both financially and in terms of their faith.
The Benham families have obviously had huge success in their businesses, but–I’ll tell you what–the thing that most impresses me about them is that their top priority throughout all this time has been their Lord Jesus Christ and their families.
In this episode, we cover

Today on the podcast, we’re talking about the power of the family business with Ryan and Jamie Smith of Elevation Capital Group.
For the Smiths, real estate is a multi-generational family business.
“As long as I can remember I had an appetite for [the real estate business]...Originally we would build the houses and sell them. And so when I say build them, you know, we did it, literally. My mom can wire a house. My dad would install the drywall. We’d paint it. I could run the wet saw when I was six, seven years old, running the tile back and forth and mixing the mud…as a child I just had a blast and I thought it was fun working altogether. And I thought, ‘I’d love to continue doing that.’ …So I had fun as a child and I was excited to be able to partner with my husband as an adult.” Jamie Smith
Jamie & Ryan talk to their kids regularly about their business. They share with them what problems come up and how they’re solving them. And they try to instill in them that no matter what you do, the most important thing is to let your faith and the wisdom of the Bible guide your choices in business and in life.
“I think this world and culture can be very disorienting. So we always want our children to know what is home base. Who am I? What is my character? What should my character be?...So I think those foundational principles are very important to Ryan and me to instill in the children. Because if they know that, they will go down a solid path. And their curiosity will lead them, but they’ll always have that foundation and that home base. We spend a lot of time working through that and talking through that.” Jamie Smith
In addition to their family real estate business, they also run a Bible study community called Fellowship of Believers, which is made up of over 40 couples.

As you know, at TRADEway we don’t just talk about trading and investing in the stock market.
We also talk an awful lot about the concept of the family business–about how you can build a business and teach your kids and grandkids skill sets that give your family the potential for generational wealth creation.
We probably talk about that more than anything. Because I don’t think America is teaching that at all through its educational systems.
Today on the podcast my guest is Shane Sams of Flipped Lifestyle. And I’m so excited to have him on because he’s going to share yet another way you and your family can create a family business together.
He and his wife, Jocelyn, started Flipped Lifestyle, a company that teaches people how to create successful online businesses. They’ve helped thousands of families create online businesses based on their God-given passions, knowledge and experience.

What should you look for in a great charting program?
Today we’re going to talk about how your charting software can help you have a more integrated experience.
Ideally, your charting software should make your trading easier to do.
The BEST charting programs will get “out of your way” and make trading more fluid and intuitive.
We’ve recommended one charting software for years, but this episode we’re sharing a new one we think will help thousands of our students become BETTER traders.
That’s because it’s a charting software that we created ourselves.
Not only that, but we’ve created Charts by TRADEway with you, our students in mind.
Charts is based on suggestions you’ve made, ideas you’ve had, as well as complaints about what drives you crazy about existing charting programs.
We’ve heard you, and have worked with an EXPERT trader and software engineer to create a cutting-edge charting program that is fluid to use AND feature-rich.
(It’s already been blowing our customers out of the water.)
Want to hear more?
Listen to the episode now to learn all about Charts by TRADEway and* how it could make 2022 your best trading year yet!***
Ready to Start Your Stock Trading Career?
Every successful business involves trading something for something—and taking a profit. It could be used cars. Or cereal. Or it could be stocks and options.
Becoming a full-time trader can be a potentially lucrative way to build wealth. (Plus, it’s a lot of fun).
Want to learn more about starting a stock trading career? What kind of knowledge and skills will you need to develop to succeed at it?
I’ll be answering all of that and more in this week’s podcast episode.
In this episode I’ll cover…
How does your relationship with the Lord affect your stock trading?
We’ve been discussing this in depth in the last few podcast episodes. Check out these episodes if you haven’t already!
“God Has Created a Remedy: How to Restore the Joy of Your Salvation”
“The Financial & Spiritual Cure: How to Get Your Life Back on Track”
“Is Money Your #1 Idol? Watch Out for This Ultimate Trading Pitfall”
In today’s episode, we’ll be diving into what the Bible teaches about success in business.
You know, a lot of people don’t even think the Bible talks about these kinds of things. A lot of people only see it as a religious book!
But God’s people have seen it as a practical book for many thousands of years. And it is.
The Bible is an owner’s manual for a human being. It tells us all about God. But it also tells us about ourselves.
And (incredibly) God does touch on every issue of life in the Bible.
Including…How we can be financially successful in this life—especially in the world of business.
Do you want to succeed in business and life without sacrificing an inch of your faith?
Listen to the episode to find out how!
Listen to “ How to Succeed in Business Without Sacrificing Your Faith” now!
We’ve all struggled with wanting to be in total control of our lives at times.
But we need to walk with Jesus, not alone.
God built us that way.
We need to let Him be Lord and not attempt to be Lord of our own lives, because we are not good lords.
In his confession prayer, David says, “Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean. Wash me and I shall be whiter than snow.”
It’s interesting to study the history of this word hyssop. It’s actually a weed that’s very common in Israel and all over the middle east.
And it was used on the Passover night when Israel left Egypt.
They dipped the hyssop weed in the blood of the sacrificial lamb, and they sprinkled it on the doorpost of their home.
And that kept the death angel away from their house that night.
This, of course, is a picture of Jesus dying in our place and taking our sins upon himself and away from us, satisfying the Father’s need for justice.
They dipped that hyssop weed in the blood and sprinkled it, just as the Holy Spirit takes the blood of Jesus and sprinkles it upon our hearts at the moment he regenerates us as we receive Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.
In this episode, I’m going to talk about why we need confession, as well as some common misunderstandings about sin.
When we confess our sins, our spirits are renewed.
This is where we find true success in life. And that true success, of course, includes our stock trading.
(Being out of sorts with our Lord, however, brings failure.)
Which one are you cultivating in your life right now? Success or failure? Listen to the episode now to find out…
When it comes to closeness to God, it’s just like a friendship or a marriage.
It’s not a fixed thing.
It takes continual work to build, maintain a relationship.
And if you work at it, you can grow it into something even bigger and stronger.
If you’re in a place in your life where you need to fix things—maybe one particular thing that’s been bothering you—to truly do it right, you need to start with God.
But wait…
This show is supposed to be about stock trading, right? (You may notice I’m not talking about that a whole lot today.)
But you gotta admit this: If you don’t have this part of your life right—if you don’t have that walk with the Lord right—nothing in your life is going to work.
To be more to the point, if you’re not focusing on your relationship with God, what does it matter how good a stock trader you might be?
What does money matter at that point?
(Hint: None of it matters.)
It’s so easy in life to think about the details of doing this, and getting this job done, and being great at this—and even focusing too much on our relationships with other human beings—that we leave God out.
At that point those things fall apart.
What can we do about it? (Or better yet, what can we do to prevent this?)
Today we’re going to talk about something I like to call the cure.
This week’s episode is about how to get your life back on track by reconnecting with the Lord.
Have you ever found yourself thinking that more money would solve all your problems? It won’t.
But the idea that it will fix everything can be so persistent, even if you know this deep down.
For many, many people money is their #1 idol.
You may have had great financial victories in your life. Some huge successes. This is a blessing, but can be a time of spiritual danger as well.
An increase in wealth can lead to people slowly slipping away from the Lord and becoming complacent.
King David had one of the greatest victories of his life, and then right after that, look what happened. He fell away from a close walk with the Lord. And then one of the lowest times of his life happened.
Could something similar to what happened to King David happen to you? How does money deceive you? Listen to today’s episode to find out!
How is your walk with the Lord?
I’m talking about being truly close to the Lord rather than just thinking you are.
Sometimes we slip away from the Lord slowly. So slowly we don’t even know it’s happening.
And if that happens, it can affect your family business, it can affect your stock trading.
It can really affect your relationships.
Everything.
Today I wanna talk about some warning signs that you’re not walking closely with the Lord.
When you see these in your own life, look at them as spiritual red flags.
You might be wondering why we’re even talking about this in the context of business or stock trading.
But it’s because it affects every area of your life.
And it’s the most important thing in your life.
We are in a bull market right now that’s cooling off. What kinds of strategies work well for this kind of market?
That’s what we’re going to talk about today.
Today I want to share with you two strategies that work well in a cooling bull market, just like the one we’re having now.

Remember, gaining skill sets in the stock market (and in the options market) can help your family gain financial leverage.
And financial leverage is God’s secret to wealth creation.
People often think to become wealthy, they need to figure out what they love to do and find a way to make money doing that. But it doesn’t work that way. What you really need to do is find out what people want and need and make that and sell it.
But even then, you’ve created a system where you have to be there all the time. What if you want time freedom?
If you want THAT kind of lifestyle, you need to learn how to let your money make your money for you.
How the heck do you do that? We’re going to cover that in today’s episode.
We’ll also be covering...
How is your prayer life? Are you consistent in prayer? Today, we’re having an expert on prayer on the show: my wife, Charlotte Mitchell.
Charlotte’s a blessing to all of us and to our family business. In fact, there are people across this whole country that are students of TRADEway that she loves and prays for.
Join us on today’s episode where Charlotte and I talk about what a meaningful, consistent prayer life looks like, and tips for deepening your prayer life.
Today Charlotte will be sharing with us:

In the last few weeks on the podcast we’ve been talking about the conditions of God’s promise of wealth. (The first episode in this series is “Actuating God’s Promise of Wealth”, and the second is “Are You Diligent Enough to Be a Millionaire?”, so go check those out if you haven’t already).
Today’s episode is about the last condition of building wealth, and it’s a really important one: skill sets. Why are skill sets so important?
The world can take your gold away, but it cannot take your skillsets away. It can’t take away what’s between your ears. This may be one reason that the richest man in history, Solomon, asked for wisdom from God rather than riches.
Before you can create wealth in your business, God requires that you master the skill sets of that particular business. If you can understand this and put it into practice, you will bring happiness, safety, long-life, riches, honor, a pleasant life, and peace into your life.
Want to find out how? Listen to the episode now.
Last week on the podcast we talked about the first condition to actuating God’s promise of wealth: a closer walk with God.
Now what’s the second condition?
Well let’s talk about Proverbs 10:4. He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich.
So the second condition of actuating God’s promise of wealth in your life is diligence.
Make no mistake. Becoming a millionaire requires hard work and perseverance.
But when you love what you’re doing, it’s not difficult to work hard. (Side note: when it comes to trading, you get to put your money to work even while you’re sleeping).
An effort must be made to become the best at what you’re doing. Stock trading cannot be a hobby if you want to impact future generations...it must be treated as a business and taken seriously. The best way to do that is to get plugged into a repeatable, reliable SYSTEM & SUPPORT.
Because if you’re trying to change your family financially, you can’t take it lightly.
You gotta put everything into it.
Are you diligent enough to be a millionaire? Listen to the episode now to find out!
Did you know that God actually does promise wealth to his children?
I know you’ve all heard TV preachers that seem to promise that God wants to make you wealthy.
Here’s what those guys don’t understand—that even though it is true that there is a promise of wealth to God’s children, it is what theologians call a conditional promise. And that is different than an unconditional promise.
(I think sometimes the TV preachers teach it like an unconditional promise, and that’s false.)
A conditional promise means there’s an if-then proposition. If you do this, this and this, then I will make you wealthy. So you gotta make sure you get the if part. And that’s what we’re gonna talk about in this week’s episode.
God gives a vast supply of information about wealth creation in the Bible. And you know this is the oldest book on the planet that contains business principles, correct? I mean, it talks about economics, it talks about finance, it talks about the power of creating family businesses. All of this is in the Bible.
Business success implies wealth. I mean the whole idea of entrepreneurship and creating businesses is to create wealth through these businesses. And since wealth is a conditional promise to God’s children, we need to know the conditions in our hearts and fulfill them in our lives.
Now today we’re going to talk about what I think is the most important condition to becoming wealthy.
Want to know what that is? Listen to the episode now to find out!
It’s a blessing when your trading is profitable and the money is hitting your bank account each month.
If your income has been increasing lately, it may be time to take a fresh look at your tithing/giving.
As a trader, your tithing is gonna work a little bit differently than if you were getting a typical paycheck.
How should you tithe when you’re an entrepreneur with a thriving trading business?
What about as a new trader who’s just getting their trading business off the ground?
To answer that, first I need to set the stage. We have to talk about the difference between law and grace. Because some things don’t work the same way on this side of the cross.
Tithing is one of those things.
There’s a lot of confusion about this in the church and there always has been. So let’s talk about it.
In this episode I’ll cover:
Listen to the episode now!
I want to tell you a story. A stock trading story (my favorite).
Let’s go back in time...
In the fall of 2020, the market had been in a bull market uptrend for at least three or four months, and a general bull market for years (basically ever since Donald Trump was elected).
It was the longest bull market we’ve seen in history.
It was like a fairytale.
And the market was still in this bull market, but…
It was having little corrections.
And one of those corrections started around September 3, 2020.
Now, during a correction, you don’t really want to be jumping into an up-play. So it’s super important to know when these corrections are happening so you don’t hurt your trades.
And how do you know if you’re about to go into a correction?
By watching the world events and the economic events of the day, and thinking carefully about what those events might be causing to happen in the stock market.
Because news actually drives the markets. So you want to get in sync with that news and what the whole market is doing. And you want to keep that in mind when you do your play with your individual stocks.
We call this market tone.
In this week’s episode I’ll cover...
P.S. Still mastering market tone? Lean on us as you take the time to learn this all-important skill.
(One way you can be in-the-know everytime the market goes into a correction is through signing up for Market Alerts, which are included in TraderPRO.)
Those of us who have done this for many years will tell you exactly what we think the world events and the economic events of the day may be doing to the stock market.

A lot of big syndicate voices out there today talk about debt like it’s the worst thing in the world. As if being in debt is something you should never do.
And a lot of those people are REALLY GOOD PEOPLE (after all, the majority of the country NEEDS this type of teaching to protect themselves and their family from getting into the wrong kind of debt which can be devastating).
But I don’t agree with their opinions about debt, especially for the segment of the world that DOES want to become educated and learn what the Bible truly says about this topic.
So who’s right? Them or me?
Let me just review some of the things the Bible says about debt, because it can be surprising.
In II Kings 4:3, the Bible says,
“Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, even empty vessels; borrow not a few.”
Now this is the prophet of God speaking, which is a picture of God speaking.
And he told them to borrow.
Now the world says don’t borrow.
But the Lord says, in this case, with this woman whose husband had died and left her in debt, (and they were gonna take her children as slaves to pay back the debt—she was in trouble!); and the man of God told her to go and borrow.
So she borrowed vessels to put oil in.
And the Lord miraculously took what this woman had in her house (she had a little oil) and He multiplied it.
And she was able to take the new money from selling the oil and pay the debt off. And even had extra to live on. She created wealth doing what the Lord said to do.
But it all started with borrowing something.
Now that lesson is kinda cool. Because God said Look in your house and see what you already have.
Think about what that could include for you and your household. Take a moment to stop and think about everything you already have.
It could be some assets that you have that you could sell. Now you have some money to MAKE money with.
Or it could even be skillsets you have in your mind. It could be things in your brain that you learned in the past. Skills and knowledge that you could use in ways you may never have considered before.
Look around! What do you see? It may be something right under your nose...
You know I have more to say about this! I’m just getting warmed up, really… 😎
In this week’s episode, “When & How to Use Debt WELL (and When NOT to Use it)”, I cover...
Listen to the episode now!
Do you ever feel helpless or worried about money—just money in general?
If so, you are not alone.
Just think about it...
There’s very little education in the American educational system about money. When was the last time you had a class on how money works and how investing works?
You didn’t get that in elementary school, junior high, high school. You didn’t get it in college. And when you go to business school, really they just teach you to work for a boss. And when you get an MBA they just teach you to work for a higher boss.
Most of us were never really taught how money works. And when something’s unknown, it can make us fearful.
In this episode I’ll cover:
One of the best ways to switch from a fearful to an engaged mindset about money is to set money goals.
For a lot of our clients out there, their goal is to take a small amount of money, and have the potential to turn that into a relatively large amount of money in a small amount of time.
You cannot do that without leverage. And that’s why programs like our TraderMAX membership are so important—the options are where you gain that great leverage.
But you also get live, online study groups where you get a teacher (an experienced trader) on there with you along with lots of other students from around the country. You actually pick stocks that are potential plays to follow throughout the week.
And you’re gonna find it’s nothing like those luncheons where you hear about annuities and life insurance. BORING.
It’s nothing like sitting in a finance class in an MBA program—double boring!
Our memberships (besides changing people’s lives) are a lot of fun. And you’ll have the potential to gain monthly or even weekly cash flow for your family.
Not only that but you can learn long-term investing skills as well.

How are the wealthiest people in the world currently building their wealth? To answer this question, let’s start with a little history. If we go back in history to 1982, oil was king. So most of the billionaires in the world in that day were in the oil business.
By the time you get to 2007, that had changed. Oil was no longer the king. Wall Street was. More than a quarter of the fortunes were made through investing.
Every year since 2007 until now, investing has still been king. It’s the #1 way billionaires are making their money today.
(If this isn’t a great reason to start stock trading, I don’t know what is!)
How did the wealthiest people learn to trade this well?—well enough to make them one of the wealthiest people in the world?
It's not their education.
It's not their IQ.
It's not luck.
It's that they had a system.
Now you might ask, why do they make more money in investing than they do in the business that they started?
Well it's because once they begin to make money, they have to figure out what to do with the extra money laying around. So pretty much all of them learned how to trade in the markets.
That's what happened with my grandfather in the oil business and that's why I learned so much about stock and bond trading from him.
So we know the wealthiest people in the world, the Forbes 400 billionaires, make most of their money through investing.
You can have access to that same potential.
We here at TRADEway can teach you a system and the skill sets. We want to be your coach. We want to be your cheerleader. We want to be your mentors. And we’ll be with you all along the way.
-David Mitchell | TRADEway Founder & CEO
P.S. In my opinion, if you want to learn how to have the maximum amount of leverage with your money, I think the skill sets that are taught in TraderPRO are the way to go, so check that out.
Today we’re gonna talk about one of the emotions that really messes with your trading.
It can ruin your stock trades.
And it’s called FEAR. All of us have it.
But we have the most powerful thing in our corner to sustain us. More powerful than anything the world has to offer.
“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” 2 Timothy 1:7
Today we’re going to talk about how to develop a mindset of power and love and a sound mind while trading. Because that’s what you need to be a successful stock trader (as well as to enjoy the journey along the way).
Wealth creation happens by leverage, and the best leverage you can get is by learning how to leverage your money on Wall Street through proper trading skillsets. And that’s what we teach at TRADEway.
In fact, if you go out to tradeway.com/memberships and you check out TraderPRO, I promise you it’s going to start at ground zero if you know nothing about trading--it starts there, and takes you all the way through to advanced strategies (with loads of support). And by the time you get done with that, you’re going to know the secrets that the guys on Wall Street know and how they make their money.
Have you noticed this pattern in yourself?
You want to have the potential to change your family financially.
You get started, and you think, This is amazing that this information is out there. I can actually do this.
And then?
Life gets in the way. (That’s normal by the way)
So what do you do when you know what you should do, but you’re not doing it? One of the best things you can do to end the start-stop-start-stop cycle, and instead build & keep momentum, is join a group.
Why? Because people learn best together. They achieve more and they reach their goals faster.
Just some of the benefits of group learning include…
Higher achievement
Greater persistence (aka you don’t tend to quit 💪)
Have YOU tapped into the power & potential of the group? One of our most comprehensive (yet affordable) group learning experiences is TraderPRO. The group mentorship sessions are our students’ favorite part of the TraderPRO membership. If you joined today, you could be in a group learning session in days. What are you waiting for?

Is your portfolio ready for a refresh?
You may have heard us talk about your “80% money” and your “20% money.” What’s that about?!
Your “80% money” represents your long-term, retirement-type funds. You want to be safer with that. You want it to be more diversified.
Your “20% money” is your short term trading. The money you use to get into and out of trades more often.
The goal is that eventually you have 20% of your total money in your trading account so that you can actively grow it.
But when you’re just starting out we advocate that you start out with something we call “small money trading.” And for most people, that’s about $500, $1,500, maybe up to $5,000 if you have a lot of money to your name. It needs to be an amount that won’t “hurt” if you were to lose it all...look at it as practice.
We want you to use the skillsets that you learn at TRADEway to see if you can double or triple that small amount of money.
Now if you go out to tradeway.com/memberships you’ll see TraderPRO. And if you check that out, that will take you from the basics all the way out to advanced combination options strategies. You’re gonna have enough tools in your toolbag there to handle any stage in the market.
There’s even a third category that we recommend you invest your money in. Want to know what that is? Listen to the episode now to find out!
You’ve already learned the basics of stock trading, and you’ve maybe even learned a bit about options. Where are you going to head next on your journey? We suggest you check out our membership programs: Insider+, TraderMAX and TraderPRO.

“Your time is infinitely valuable. Now, money is just a tool. I know it’s important, but it’s a finite tool. Your time is the most valuable thing you have.” -David Mitchell
You don’t need to be in front of a screen ten hours a day watching your plays, and getting addicted to the stock market to be a successful trader.

As Jesse Livermore said, “The sitting and the waiting is the most important part of trading.”
Here are 4 ways to save precious time as a trader.

“I wanted something different...Why would I not take my time, talent and energy and try and invest it in my own trading business? And that’s what I decided to do...” -Ben Russell, VP of AMPT at TRADEway
Corporate jobs can come with a lot of perks, AND some intense downsides. Long hours away from your family, chronic stress, and the feeling that your energy is getting used by someone else, to name a few.
The really aggressive “go-get-it-done” attitude that can make you successful at work can take a toll on your family life. Many families across America are struggling with a lack of home/work balance on a daily basis.
Is there a better way? Can you bring home the money and have more time with your loved ones?
Our guest on the podcast today is Ben Russell, who is the VP of AMPT at TRADEway. (AMPT is our revolutionary, Biblically-based, long-term investment program).
Ben came to our foundational “Step 1: Start Your Journey” event, invested in TRADEway’s education, and went on to become a successful trader.
In today’s episode, Ben opens up about the moment he decided that working for large corporations was ultimately unfulfilling. He shares how he pivoted, using trading to build more time freedom (and family time) into his life.
Are you looking for more life balance in your own life? Interested in making more money while spending less time working?
God’s system to give people the potential to build wealth is called financial leverage.
Here at TRADEway, we believe that creating a stock trading business is one of the most effective ways to do this because…
Plus! Ben and David talk about a NEW revolutionary alternative to traditional long-term investing.

We’re taking an honest look at personal finance & the Bible, and how they interrelate in unexpected ways.
We’ll cover how you can come out from under the condemnation of the financial errors you have made. Here’s a flashlight--let’s make that a spotlight--and a way out…

Can you be CALLED to business? Can you be called to start companies, sell companies and grow wildly wealthy? Has God wired you for business? If you answered YES, this episode is for you.
Joe Johnson is the Founder of Oxlos, a company that is for, in his own words, "entrepreneur education, investor education, self-employment--those who really want to go on a different path."
"If you don't go through trials, you don't have the opportunity to allow perseverance to do its thing, to finish its work. And to me, in the life of an entrepreneur...one thing that you have to be able to do is you have to persevere, because through perseverance you will learn so much. My story, even though you were very kind with your introduction, is full of failures. But it is within those failures, and keeping going forward rather than stopping and giving up--that's where the blessing is at. And it is that perseverance that will mature you and will enable you to be the man or woman that God's called you to be."
