Did you know that one of the most renowned hedge funds in the country hired a trading coach? It's true.
One might think that the professionals at SAC Capital Advisors had "arrived" as traders and wouldn't need a coach.
Yet that wasn't the attitude of Steve Cohen, who heads the fund. He hired psychiatrist Ari Kiev -- who previously worked with Olympic athletes -- to coach his traders. The New York Times reported Kiev's passing last year:
"His work with athletes caught the attention of Steven A. Cohen, the founder of the hedge fund SAC Capital Advisors, who hired Dr. Kiev in the early 1990s to coach his traders..."
New York Times, Dec. 2009
And there's more to this story than the fact that an acclaimed hedge fund manager hired a coach for an already-successful team of traders. Cohen actually employed Kiev for years, because Kiev's coaching got results.
Perhaps you can benefit from coaching. If you believe so, the Beacon Learning Group (a member of EWI's Educational Affiliate Program) has an appealing offer:

Announcing a UNIQUE WARRANTY from Beacon Learning Group's Personal Coaching Program for Elliott Wave Traders
If you have not recovered the cost of your tuition in trading by the time your coaching program has ended, Beacon will extend the program until you do -- FREE!
-----------------
This Unique Warranty reflects Beacon's commitment to your trading success.
All Beacon Learning Group coaches have passed an EWI-administered test for knowledge of the Elliott Wave Principle. Moreover, each Beacon coach has professionally traded for at least 10 years.
Beacon matches you with a coach who has experience in the market you trade. You enjoy one-on-one guidance. Shawn Fitzpatrick is one of Beacon's coaches, and he gives an example of how two trading minds can be better than one:
"Tom had struggled for five years trying to understand the Wave Principle. After going through our coaching program he began to be consistently successful for the first time. He was taking fewer trades and spending less time doing it. That is what is most rewarding as a coach, taking someone that has struggled, and help them replace fear with confidence."
Coaching works. Obviously, individuals who want to excel at trading must apply themselves: and Beacon does indeed hold students accountable with regular assignments and benchmarks.
