    thanks,

  2. Wasn't there a thread on this fund which said they didn't liquidate positions?

  4. Is that why you are sending private emails around soliciting for his system?
     
  5. All you need to know is from Ditch's link:


    FTC Sues Day Trading Seminar Promoter Over Deceptive Ad Claims

    In its seventh case challenging deceptive advertising claims made by "day trading" investment advisors, the Federal Trade Commission has filed suit in U.S. District Court against Timothy Cho and Tim Cho Investment Corporation ("TCI"), alleging that the defendants made false and deceptive advertising claims for TCI's training seminar on day trading. The agency seeks a court order directing Cho and TCI to stop making false and deceptive claims and provide consumer redress or give up their ill-gotten gains. TCI is located in Irvine, California, and has affiliate offices throughout the country...



    Yes this was from several years ago, but to put it in cliche' terms, tigers don't change their stripes.

    I got a cold call from these guys a few months ago. After checking the background I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole. I wonder where they bought my number?
     
  7. Uriah,

    Go ahead and invest if you are so keen on it and let us know how it goes. I'm sure everyone here hopes you make a mint.

    Best wishes...
     
  8. Ah,

    That's a much easier series of questions to answer. :)

    1. Yes. Many people/companies/hedge funds/etc... make money in the markets with systematic trading.

    2. No...

    No one sells money making systems unless they can make more selling the system than trading it.

    You have to do your own work. Otherwise buy Fidelity or some such...


    Use some common sense...
     
  9. The simple answer is it is not a free ride. You have to do some real work.
     
  10. Now you are on the right track...
