Are all trading courses scams?

  1. Hello:

    I have commented on this a few times.

    I like Linda. She is a skilled professional. Also she is a person who enjoys teaching people.

    It has been a long time since I was in her room.

    I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone.

  2. This course is not a scam. Read the excerpts in each category.

    http://trend-dynamics.com/TD_Products_Self_Guided.htm

    I use the material in this course and you can see the types of trades possible listed below in my daily trading sheet read by many floor trader and pro fund managers...

  3. are thay all scam?

    depends what you except.

    if you want the basics of the profession (i.e. what is support and resistance etc) then they are not scam.

    if you think that you will learn how to trade profitable directly from the course then yes, they are all scam.

    I agree with 50cent, it depends on your expectations and that there is no magic formula. Look to improve incrementally and you will be satisfied.

  5. i am somewhat new to this community, and somewhat new to trading.

    the best education ive found has been free -- experience and time (with a lot of work to fill in the time)

    but i have used courses (am working through one right now) to help complement my understanding. Just like how we trade on perceived value, we buy courses on perceived value -- it's up to the individual to decide what the value is!

  6. YES, ALL ARE SCAMS.

    Why not simply use their techniques and make money?

    Why share such profitable ideas?

    Why spend time marketing and begging for clients, instead of trading?

    Why waste all the time on a crappy blog, lying about results, writing horrible books, and constantly asking for your money?

    YES, ALL ARE SCAMS

    Sir,

    You may not believe this - but I have absolutely no perceived value of anything I trade - ever – to me value is irrelevant

    But as we all are different - so to must our perceptions be

  8. hey redneck...

    to everyone else, can't you guys open your eyes and realize the scam?

    i have a fib, pivot, volume, MA, price, macd, etc.... system that works every day!!! i'll then tell you in hindsight which one you should have used.

    and tell you i picked the right one. I'll go back and show you charts and how to apply each one, but won't tell you which one to use in the future.

    people will love your powerpoint, and how trading is so easy.

    get verified statements.

    most simply sim trade.

    let me give you a free lesson on gaps.

    buy the gap if opens on light volume
    sell gap if volume big

    i'll tell you later if the volume was light or not.

    LOL

    SCAM

    :)

    Is it possible that people who can’t trade are capable of teaching others to trade?

    Top athletes have coaches who are not able to perform as well as the elite in their chosen sport but command respect in the sporting community for their ability to train and motivate.

    It is said that you can’t perform brain surgery or play scratch golf just from reading a book or taking a lesson. Nor should you expect to be able to trade profitably after taking trading course. But you have to start somewhere.

    Try everything. Eliminate what doesn’t work.
