All these spam posters offering training courses for pennies on the dollar have common traits. Became successful using "these" trading courses and willing to provide the "courses" they purchased to others for a fraction of the cost. Yet, they aren't so successful that they can not just donate the courses. Spent $20k but you can have it for $500, the equivalent to 10 pts ONE car ES. Similar to the snake oil vendors, professing to be extremely successful, yet they need to sell courses and subscriptions. Which begs the question, WHY charge? If the system is profitable, why aren't they protecting it and why are they bothering with subscriptions, shipping and accounting for peanuts when they are raking in millions from the markets. High rollers seeking piker pennies. In reality, these people selling discount courses are lower than snake oil as they are marketing pirated materials via forums, eBay, YouTube, Twitter, Facebook and other public marketplaces. Lazer printer, DVD burner and shrink wrap is all it takes to exploit the gullible and naive. They shouldn't be allowed to post, and newbie ET'rs should be warned, caveat emptor. Most all trading courses only sell dreams and prey on newbies. $49, $499, $4,999 doesn't matter. PS: PHD in trading is laughable. sounds like a snake oil certificate Typical qualification and background for licensed traders and brokers.
