One last thing ... I never suggested Blox wasn't reputable ...The 
point you are missing is ... what's the golden goose worth ? $3k ? 
I'd be happy to pay $300k for a canned system that produced a MAR ( 
CAR / DD ) of 10 ... So would LOTS of other people ... so why is this 
goose only $3k ... most likely because it's already cooked ... 

If you want to spend $2-3k on a product and you don't want to do much 
work I'll point you at one that has a whole lot more potential ...

are aware that not everyone is as gifted as you and many others when 
it comes to programming,and there are many incredibly successful 
traders who do not employ systems at all...
