I truly don't understand why you are so quick to discredit Atlas?
Perhaps, we are all in denial.. All world is upside down. What seemed to be a strong foundation forever falls apart like a house of cards.
Atlas ratings has released its report before the bankruptcy of PFG. This is a fact.
The other factors to consider for me personally:
1. Atlas is a 3rd party.
2. I don't see any sponsors or banners on Atlas site which is good
3. The guy is a trader who lost money to MF Global
4. He is a fund manager, knows finance
Anyhow, i think its just great that Atlas Ranking exists. Don't we traders need more of those ranking, more 3rd party, unbiased , professional research into the health of FCMs?
Me, for example. I have an account with a big FCM that is on bottom according to Atlas. It makes sense to me to diversify and open a 2nd account with another firm that has higher ranking.
If you choose not to believe in Atlas that's fine. I personally choose to consider it and it should be fine as well.
1. Atlas is a 3rd party. -
My grandmother is a 3rd party - doesn't make her an expert and neither is this guy
2. I don't see any sponsors or banners on Atlas site which is good
- does anyone even go to this site? If they did he could sell advertising.
3. The guy is a trader who lost money to MF Global
Uh, when is losing money at MF Global a good thing - how on earth does this make him an expert
4. He is a fund manager, knows finance
My personal acccount is larger than what he manages - fund manager is a relative term.
