I only had the "pleasure" of dealing with their senior sales rep. He was a first class idiot. I ran. I strongly rec. going somewhere else. I decided if they treat me so disrespectfully before they receive the money, I don't want to know what happens after.
Munnyhunny, Stay away from sales reps- I work with Scott Hoffman, a senior broker there, and have been very pleased. He knows that I don't need him to tell me how to trade, but he offers support and answers questions very quickly. He has been very supportive, even when I was trying the DT Pro platform on a trial basis. I am not a shill for Daniels, just trying to pass on my experiences. Scott also has a trading blog, he trades (as do I) based on the Taylor method- here is a link to his site, so you can get a sense of what he is about. regards...Kevin http://www.futuresinsightblog.com/
Daniels executes - an April 2010 IRA wiped out by November... I had a 235k IRA as my only asset destroyed by Daniels Trading. Todd Wood sure worked his magic over the summer so it is only 34k today. Hey, let's blame it on a black box trading strategy. I'm a nobody going into NFA arbitration to find out how this racket executed my IRA. I never traded, left it in DT hands.....try it, you'll see
Roadkill, I am really sorry to hear that you lost so much, but I am compelled to ask a few questions, because you seem intent to blame Daniels for your losses, and also seem to take no responsibility at all- 1. What sort of conversations did you have with Todd Wood (VP of Managed Futures)? 2. Did you research the track record for their managed futures accounts? 3. Why didn't you set a "stop trading" agreement, in case your worst peak/trough drawdown exceeded, say, 25%? 4. The big question- how could you sit by, month after month, and do nothing, while you watched your IRA drop by approx 86%? Daniels' trades may have lost the funds, but you did nothing to stop it.
