(Plug coming, LOL). Please Read This: What separates our training from the "pack" of "stucc" presented to the public? It takes, in general, over a $million to make a decent living in this business. Most "gurus" and "experts" try to convince the unwary that they can take $20,000 and make a bunch of money in the markets. Well, that's nearly impossible. Our traders have a big edge over retail customers because they can "use" (not "abuse") a $million or more of our capital by funding their account with around $20,000 or so. This available capital doesn't mean you simply "buy more shares" or anything like that (although, you can as your comfort level increases). What this does mean is that YOU CAN PARTICIPATE IN STRATEGIES THAT ACTUALLY WORK VS. "Picking a Stock's direction" or "Picking the overall direction of the market." Much of what we teach can be adapted to retail trading, but not all of it for some of the reasons shown. Our traders can take part in market making, position trading, pairs trading (collecting interest on the money generated when you sell stock short, where most, if not all, retail brokers do not pay you that interest). We can place "Opening Only Orders" with the NYSE, pre-market, so we can take part WITH THE NYSE SPECIALISTS when stocks gap up or down each morning. We can use automated programs without fear of "margin calls" etc. I could go on and on, but I think you get my point. - Don Bright Trading Tactics and Techniques - Short Term Market Indicators Live trading with expert traders New - Pairs Trading teaching from our experts.

Star Alliance Capital is a chop shop. I'll be suprise if they have over 30 traders. And from what Ive heard from a friend of mine, the head traders aren't profitable traders.
