Yes your right ....and so am I .... lol. I was however mainly referring to higher priced course's after the money I've spent $350.00 is a cake walk for me .... 1. Well so far I have 2 unsolicited references thats better than 4 from her. 2. She is not making any financial claims on her web site so that takes care of that one. 3. So now it's really only the money back guarantee, I will call about that on Tuesday. My methods are excellent I know that. I am very comfortable and confident in them.. I guess what I think would really bring me to the next level of consistency is the ability to watch someone who is already there. I'm sure it is only a matter of more screen time but a view into another more experienced traders month is what I hope this will achieve. How does she handle the occasional bad days that we all have that is different then me? I'm putting this out there for any criticism so please feel free to do so, I respect the opinions of many of the more experienced traders in here. Anyone have a link to hedge fund performance tables? Thanks again Guru
I have nothing good or bad to say about Linda, but it seems so many traders are still looking OUTSIDE of themselves to some "guru" to improve their trading. The more I look at other people's systems, strategies, etc., the more I realize how good my own methodology (that I developed) is -- and the only thing separating me from being an elite trader is ME -- I simply have to have more confidence in my methodology and then execute it consistently. Does anyone feel the same way? On an unrelated note, the Eagles need some better WR's if they expect to get to the Super Bowl (just thought I would add that as McNabb threw another INT).
Samson: You know, from my point of view, people are funny in how they look for verification. Linda is a human being with good skills. She is a pro. She is also someone who is not afraid to take a loss. I notice that she is always able to come back. This is the mark of someone who is going to be trading a long time. If you are looking for hedge fund results, and you are trying to improve your short term trading techniques, you are looking at the wrong data. Think about all the "big name" money managers who have blown up and disappeared. From Druckenmiller (managed Soro's funds) to Neidermeyer. Every one of them a brilliant manager, yet they blew up and where are they today? Linda is a short time frame trader and she excels at scalping. If thats what you want to do, you could't do better than watching her or participating in her trading room. Good luck, Steve46 PS: by the way, I manage a family fund as well as trade short term. I know how hard it is to be successful at both types of money management. For longer term investing, I often place money with other managers (Vanguard for instance), if I feel that they have more expertise than I.
Formikatrading I feel the same way. I have lost money earlier so i am quite scared of trading now. So i have been searching for every possible rule or guru to hold on to. But i know i can do it very well myself just looking at a chart and using proper money management.
Steve, How do you know if and when she is taking a loss? Is she just trading on paper at her room or are the trades actually being executed via a brokerage? If via a brokerage then there is a record of all the trades but they are not publicized. Some vendors make their trading statements available, some post a record of their trades as taken on paper and some do neither of the above. I like to see some kind of record. Ron
Roncer: Linda trades in real time. The trades are real. I have no idea whether she makes her records public. I suggest you go to her website, contact her and ask for yourself.
Not to be rude, but I don't think LBR would care much about what you wanted to see. I think she has enough people subscribing to her service(s) that she will not waste the time to provide statements. LBR is the real deal - I do not use her services, but have communicated with her many times over the past five years. Read the responses here, look at her site, and try it out for a month if you think it is for you.
Does anyone know if she made money last year on the calls she made in the room? I unsubsribed after she lost money during the time I was subscribing. (Based on my account and others)
