What would you do with six hours back?
Done for the day
in 6 minutes.And in 4 months of 6-minute mornings, he’s up 90.3%.
A trader Don Kaufman has trusted for years calls it THE SWITCHBOARD — one screen that shows him, before the market opens, the one price that’s going to decide the day.
He places a simple trade and gets on with his morning. By 9:36 he’s done, and he won’t look at a chart again.
Register now to watch Don reveal THE SWITCHBOARD live for the first time.
Plus: one live attendee will win $2,000 cash just for showing up.

Seats capped at 500. A small group gets access to the screen first — Don explains how on Thursday, and how you can be part of it.
You’ve had a trade where everything lined up and you still lost.
What stopped you wasn’t on the chart.
What THE SWITCHBOARD actually shows him.
Some mornings the market can’t go anywhere, and there’s no way to tell from a chart.
Something stops it, and it happens every single day. Almost nobody can see it coming. On Thursday he shows you what it is.
He calls it THE SWITCHBOARD. On Thursday he’ll tell you why.
Everyone else is reacting to what price just did. He’s reading what’s already been decided.
That’s why he doesn’t need to watch charts all day.
On Thursday, you’ll be looking at the same screen he is.
And you don’t need 23 years to read it. That’s the whole point of building it.
Two wildly different ways to read the market.
6 hours
- Charts — a picture of what already happened
- Indicators built from that same past price
- Forty names on a watchlist to scan
- Sit there and wait for something to show up
6 minutes
- One screen, before the market opens
- One price — the one that decides the day
- A trade left sitting at it
- Then he’s gone. No chart watched all day.
Charts show you what price already did. THE SWITCHBOARD shows him the one price that’s going to decide the day, before the market opens.
SIX MINUTES, THEN HIS DAY BACK.
One screen. One trade left sitting right there. Then he’s gone.
It happens or it doesn’t, and he isn’t there either way. No chart watched at any point in the day.
Around half an hour a week, all of it scheduled.
- 9:36 AMHe’s finished. The whole morning is his.
- LunchtimeHe doesn’t check his phone. There’s nothing to check.
- 3:00 PMNot at a screen wondering. Doing something else entirely.
- The closeHe finds out how it went. He wasn’t there for any of it.
That’s what THE SWITCHBOARD really bought him: his day back.
Don’t take his word for it. Every one of the 71 trades goes on screen.
71 documented trades. May 5 through September 9. Nothing left out.
Here’s what happened.
11 of those 71 trades lost everything. Not down a bit — to nothing. The account still finished at $1,903.
Real trades, real dates, shown on a $1,000 base. Before commissions. Past performance does not indicate future results.

Don isn’t naming him until Thursday.
Chartered Market Technician. 23 years in this business.
13 of those years inside thinkorswim and TD Ameritrade, on the team that ran education for millions of retail traders. He had a job and a family — he didn’t have another 6 hours to trade his own account.
So he built a way to need 6 minutes instead.
Don has trusted him for years. On Thursday he introduces him, and you see the screen for yourself.
What he’ll show you.
- 01THE SWITCHBOARD, live
See the actual screen he checks each morning — which prices matter, which ones he ignores, and what he’s looking for before he makes a decision.
- 02Every trade
All 71 documented trades from the last four months, wins and losses together, with the actual equity curve.
- 03The six-minute morning
The exact routine around the open: one screen, the trade he leaves sitting there, and how you’d follow the same process yourself.
- 04Who gets to see the screen first
It has never left TheoTrade — nobody outside the company has ever been given access. But a small group is about to be led in behind the scenes, and Don explains exactly how you can be part of that.
- 05Where 50% in 90 days comes from
The arithmetic behind the target, taken straight out of the record rather than projected — including the 90-day stretch that came in under it.
