Trading With Ashley Alumni Perspective: Adapted from real student feedback.
I started trading the way a lot of people do — with excitement, hope, and very little knowledge. I jumped from one video to another, convinced the next strategy would finally work. Day trading, swing trading, options, I tried them all. And I lost. Over and over.
By the time I joined Trading With Ashley, I was frustrated and honestly embarrassed. I had wasted time and money, and I wasn’t sure why I thought this program would be any different. But something about the way Ashley spoke about patience and structure made me want to give it one last try.
The first difference I noticed was honesty. Nobody promised me fast results. Instead, Ashley explained that trading takes time and discipline. That was refreshing after so much hype online.
The second difference was clarity. For the first time, I understood strategies like selling puts and covered calls. They weren’t magic, but they made sense. I realized I didn’t need dozens of strategies, I needed one that I could follow consistently.
The hardest part was changing my habits. I wanted to trade constantly. I felt like if I wasn’t active, I was missing out. Ashley reminded me, again and again, that doing nothing can be the right decision. That took me months to accept.
I started keeping a journal of every trade. Looking back through it, I saw the truth in black and white: my biggest losses came from rushing, and my best results came from patience. That was humbling, but it gave me control I never had before.
Now, nine months in, I see trading differently. I don’t feel frantic anymore. I’m calmer, more disciplined, and actually enjoy the process. I’m not chasing trades, I’m following a plan. And for the first time, I feel like I’m on the right path.
If you’re wondering whether Trading With Ashley is worth it, my answer is this: it depends on what you want. If you want shortcuts, it’s not for you. But if you want to learn the right way, with real support and guidance, it might be exactly what you need.
