im not even going to begin to get into all the things wrong with that website but lets just look at this as simply and logically as possible. if you had a technique that would earn you 100% returns a year, why in the world would you waste a second of your time selling seminars? you'd obviously be a genius because you know how to not only beat the market but completely decimate it. a genius would obviously know there's about a million times more money to be made running a hedge fund than selling workshops online. even a retard would figure that one out pretty quick, just doesn't add up :)Quote:

They do have techniques for generating returns in a downward market, but I honestly haven't put in the time to learn them.Quote:

I think they are very happy to be the big fish in their pond, knowing they offer a valid service to investors who are tired of getting bent over by wall street and their broker.
But whatever, everyone needs to find their own path to financial security.
1300 gold, 21+ silver, and a 2nd attempt at 11,000 on the dow. Commodities are in full bull mode. Giddy up.

Gold precedes the move. 1300 is a century mark, so I'm not surprised to see selling here by traders. I was dumping miners into the rally. USDX took a nosedive thru 81 support after the fed meeting. Jap intervention = FAIL.Quote:

1310 is resistance. I got plenty of dough for a pullback into the 1260-1280 zone. USD is tumbling thru support levels.....almost daily. Mr. market is grunting hard to get to 11,000.
Moeghoul, I appreciate your posts, but is there any way I could get you to change that avatar? Shit bugs me out every time I see it.
did anyone seen this guy that predicts the Dow to hit 1000?:eek:

I interviewed Precther on FNN in 1986 when he was a super bull calling for 3600 on the DJI. Who'd have thought?Quote:

Lurking this thread, so thanks for the insights, but will point out to you number-crunchers that 1985 was 25 years ago...:DQuote:

Well, I don't suppose you'd count people who just had their money in a savings or money market account as 'traders', but they would have beaten the SPY.Quote:
