I don't know who Dean Handley is besides the fact that he checks out rooms and gives his opinion who is for real or not. Why is he a thief? It's good he is saying PureCrap are thieves right?

I just got mail from my mentor with a review of Dr. Dean Handley. Definitely someone you cannot trust!
thx for your efforts and review of dr dean handley. you are just far too generous already. it is good to know, who is and who is not, upfront in trading biz. appreicate your work.
I doubt it's really that simple with the SEC. I think they can interfere, except that it is almost never worth their time because they have bigger fish to fry. But I agree with your other opinion. There are quite a few ways to show your trading prowess these days thanks to the Internets. The calls don't have to be real-time (it's good if they are, of course), but there should be enough convincing evidence their strategies can make you money.
I am not sure how much I can trust the Russian guy without doing more DD, but I have done enough DD on Handley to distrust him. Another sleazebag, probably a side effect of his MBA and JD education.
Our friends at the great tradingloonies blog (mentioned on this forum a few times already) bring us this lovely introduction to futuresio.io (futuresio), a giant fraud of a trading forum, which really is a vendor syndicate. Here we go: https://tradingloonies.wordpress.co...e-big-mike-trading-forum-behind-a-new-facade/
I think it might have been their great Google position that forced Big Mike (really Big Fraud) to try and re-invent his sham: https://tradingloonies.wordpress.com/2015/01/06/google-big-mike-trading-forum-and/ Of course, the Ripoff Report "testimonials" did not help either.
http://stocktwits.com/DayTradingCoach this guy right here is a fraud i noticed him on stocktwits posting random trades without any entries - he never posts entries to his trades, and advertises that he's selling daytrade coaching i wouldn't be surprised if a couple of naive people fell for his sham
Cause the industry is lined with huge fraud is caused by general public unwilling to learn slowly. If people took three years and learn/studied price, they would not need vendors. And cause new traders uneducated, "Freedom of Speech" allows most to give real time calls. But here is the thing, even if cost is $1,000 month, good traders can make this in one trade, why mess around for peanuts of people disrupting when you trying to concentrate? Those who seek to get systems cause they new at trading are the very last people who should be buying systems. Experienced traders often buy something they might think is clever, but by then they have knowledge on how to adapt the system when volatility changes, even vendors change their parameters around monthly which tells me they are over optimizing their systems but younger traders don't know about concepts on making past seem real, newbies just have spinning money in their thoughts when it should be "orange, cherry, LEMON" slot machine. If you even looking for systems or services to buy, never going to make it as a trader as you have to either remember speed of price changes or adapt to current price action and already have rules governing targets and protective stops need to change. What I find the funniest are those who claim they have a system that only risks 4 ticks in ES, between slippage, commissions, losing trades caused by fast market conditions, drifting of price at point of entry, or retracements during higher volatility, can't see 4 ticks ever being wide enough. Also funny are forex traders, they are almost always under funded but cause they have $500 account, it gives them something to do. Sell on new lows to only be stopped out. And if pip spread greater than one pip, might as well trade futures, pay smaller comm and use limit orders to entry. Americans are so gullible, just advertise no commission costs and they come out of woodwork but make spread wider and then some. Spread is the huge commissions.
