Greetings, Cajun/Geoff here from PureTick.com trading alerts room. We are always posting controversial things but one of the ET users in another thread suggested I post some of the nice emails I get. For the most part our users seem pretty happy unless they are all fibbing to make me feel good inside but I doubt that. These are a few from today (9/10/2008): ##################### Dear Geoff/Alex, Hi there, I trialed PureTick a month or so ago. Back then I had a UK broker, I thought the entries and exits were cods-wallop from the quotes I was seeing/getting. I introduced Shamil (Sham) to your site, he took a trial and is now a paying member. He is with IB Brokers. I would like Shamil to be acknowledged by this as I really did think PureTick was b*llsh*t. How wrong was I, and I'm grateful for him to introduce me to a 'real' brokerage and also I'm back with you folks and have been successfully sim'ing and Live trading. Regards Hamant K ##################### Good job trading today Alex! I see what truly I can do when I am not bogged down with distractions I would trade anything in the world for continued access to your service. Profitmonger84, Greenville, SC ##################### Geoff, I am recovering from a closed head injury. I am struggling to get back on my feet and now must go out of town on business. PureTick is the best trading room I have ever been involved with. I would love to use your services in the future. My bank funds were low now due to the medical bills and I'm too weak to trade. I will be back very soon. If I can ever help you or your associates with Cancun travel accommodations please email me. My brother can help you with any beach front future rental. Unfortunately world wide realty sales are very slow now. Best Regards, Jim K ##################### Geoff, Alex does a great job of picking entry points and indicating stops and targets during trades. On entries, however, I sometimes get confused as to how heavy to go in. I know with time, this will become second nature to me. Of course, it is up to each of us to determine how many cars constitute heavy and light. Thanks, Alan Isorich ##################### I'd like to sign up for the 12 month commitment to PureTick Try charging it again, some funds have cleared. Regards Sabby ##################### Hello, I am currently on trial in the room; when my trial ends I would like to extend my room membership. Please confirm receipt of this email. Thanks, Adam ##################### Thanks I was a floor trader for a number of years and was a CME top step S & P floor broker/trader. (Trader before the FBI came in and changed things around), after that just brokerage. For years before that I was in the Cattle pit at the CME. When I started at the Mid America Commodity exchange we had board markers, none of this fancy electronic stuff. I have floor experience, but not too much computer trading experience. I will say that Alex tries to tell it like it is with no BS and I appreciate that. I did learn a whole lot of things I never knew before and there are still some things I have not figured out yet. But I do appreciate the knowledge I have gained in the 4 weeks I have been there. I will see you guys in a few weeks after the trip! Thanks Steve ##################### Usually even the guys who have to bow out and leave seem pretty satisfied so I'll listen to them instead of the conspiracy scam artist negative spinn doctors on here.

All of those came in today, wow!! Bravo, bravo.!! Seriously that has got to be some of the worst bullshitting I have ever come across. If you would say this is all we have, then maybe, but they all came in today. Like some girls I know would say, "whateva!!" I'll just say Bullshit!! Penn,Rennick and Teller out
I am calling shananigans. you clearly wrote all those. if those were truely emails/messsages of all different people. youre telling me 100% of those were punctuated and spmelled 100% correct. every letter is capitalized perfect. full sentences capitalized I's and commas the whole bit. i went to college and look at my internet thoughts and writings... horrible grammer. please, im calling shananigans
I dont see that as meaning anything, I always edited my testimonials for grammer and spelling so that the person giving them would not look foolish.
I have used Internet services almost daily since 1990, and also know a little of grammar, linguistics and program standards etc. From my observations of the testimonials Hamant is using the 70 character delimitation email program option, although the sentence with the word "bullshit" seems to have to been moved a little. Also, the testimonial from Steve has less than perfect sentence structure. English is not my mother tongue and I do make my share of mistakes; some I care to correct, but mostly I don't make the effort. The testimonials seem pretty genuine to me based on the variety, and there is no indication that they are not from who they claim.
bah... the letters i received from my clients are alot more impressive than yours..... http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=102610&highlight=sistum
I bet your shlong is bigger too but I'm not jealous. We can both trade well and occupy the earth in harmony. Have a good week. See you soon. Geoff / Cajun
