How to Find Your Own Investment Style

David Mitchell • December 12, 2022

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 fi
nd yours!

What if most Christians were never taught the full biblical picture of wealth? Did the Church get wealth wrong? In this powerful Season 7 premiere of The Word on Investing Podcast, Ben Mitchell shares TRADEway’s Vision for 2026 — and the biblical foundation behind why stewardship, wisdom, and hard work matter more than ever. For many believers, money has been surrounded by confusion, guilt, or misunderstanding. But what if Scripture paints a very different picture? In this episode, we unpack: ✔ The difference between riches vs true biblical wealth ✔ Why Proverbs 21:20 calls believers to pursue wisdom and stewardship ✔ What Colossians 3 teaches about work, purpose, and serving Christ ✔ Why TRADEway does NOT teach “get rich quick” trading ✔ How generational, God-honoring wealth is built over time ✔ Why knowledge and wisdom are more valuable than gold At TRADEway, we believe stewardship starts with the right foundation — spiritually, mentally, and financially. Our mission is to help believers: • Replace fear with knowledge • Replace guessing with systems • Replace quick-money thinking with legacy stewardship • Use financial wisdom to serve God, family, and Kingdom impact If you’ve ever wondered: 👉 Is it actually biblical for Christians to build wealth? 👉 Does God want believers to prosper — or just survive? 👉 Can investing be part of faithful stewardship? 📖 Key Scriptures Discussed: Proverbs 21:20 Colossians 3:23–24 🙏 Our Prayer For You That you walk faithfully in your calling, steward wisely what God gives you, and use your work to bring Him glory.

The long-term investing industry hasn’t really changed that much in the last 50 years as far as their message goes: ”Don’t worry about bear market crashes, just stay the course…” Many people argue that the average person on the street would be way better off if they just bought the S&P 500 and held it rather than trying to buy and sell individual stocks themselves. Well, that may be absolutely true if you have zero trading skillsets. But if you do have the kind of trading skillsets that TRADEway teaches, then the old line philosophy of buy and hold isn’t the best strategy for you. In today’s episode we’re talking about some common myths that buy-and-hold-ers propagate. Let’s get into this important discussion…

We all know that feeling… A trade is going well and you’re feeling elated anticipating taking profits. And then out of seemingly nowhere, it tanks. Man, it’s frustrating! And if this has happened to you–maybe once, maybe many times–just know, you’re not alone. You might be wondering, why did this happen? It turns out there are three common reasons why trades stop working. Once you learn these three reasons it will be easier for you to analyze your past trades and figure out what went wrong. But more importantly, once you learn these three reasons why trades stop working, you’ll be better able to prevent a trade from going south in the first place, because you’ll start to recognize the warning signs. So let’s dive in. Here are three most common reasons why people’s trades stop working.
