I understand your reasoning. But another way to look at it is diversification of income streams. There are weeks and month(s) where he's down over six figures. Multiple streams make total diversification sense. Think of it as a business. GS has i-banking, M&A, wealth management, and prop trading(or at least used to before Volker Rule). Even as big as them, they can't just rely on the highly volatile prop trading only. So, why not making $ and also have an educational biz on the side? There's a sucker born every minute who are knew to trading that he can sell infoware. Totally legit business-minded thinking.
I don't think Dux is legit. I've seen discrepancies in his posts. He showed a years worth of his trades and how much he made or lost each month, then he post some months later and they were all different amounts for the same months. Then he did a video of his "Audited" trading account claiming he got an unbiased CPA to audit it. After checking the guy, turned out the " independent CPA" was actually the CFO of the trading platform he uses. I'm sure some of his trades are real and cherry picked now that he's suckered 10s of thousands of people into buying his course.
He’s actually really good and diligent. His work style and ethics are those of a prof prop trader. He’s spent thousands of hours tracking penny stocks via spreadsheets. I’ve watched quite a few of his videos. You’re making quick judgments just by looking people up in 2 minutes.
Didn't even take me 2min. Clicked on the twitter link.Left hand side claiming 500K profits in one week. Right hand side a Bio saying 'Mentor' Another snake-oil selling charlatan, the trading industry is full of them, has always been full of them. There have always been more charlatans and vendors than actual highly profitable traders.
