I've been getting his free trial subscription, but everything he recommends seems to be aweful. Has this been the case for a while?
If he were any good (as opposed to lucky) he wouldn't need to be selling/pumping any bs subscriptions.
Maybe ET members are good traders and have their own methods for targeting opportunities and don't need hand holding.
I disagree, he is one of the few that gets his performance audited... email him and he will send it to you. Zanger's huge value doesn't lie in his stock picks but in that 1 or 2 picks a year where he gets super conviction and loads the boat... Like he did with GOOG last year. Everybody looks for someone that can give 10 picks a month, the reality is, guys like Darvas went from $30K to $2 million in 8 plays. Two plays a year and you can make a bundle of dough.
I don't doubt it, but why must this make all pick services a scam ? In contrast, I consider myself a pretty good daytrader, but I'm always looking for options and methods that will improve my trading. It's an ever learning process.
