Re[2]: Be Warned about Guru's

Hello  scheier,

99.9%  of  those  over  the years i have watched post their supposedly
great  trading  results  have  wound  up  getting  money out ignorant,
foolish  newbies  who  are  also on the same forum.  this type of scam
technique  is very common,  the guru post his remarkable results (all
without  proper  independent  auditing of course) on the forum.  then
the guru sets back like a spider in a web - to catch the private e-mail
inquires  from  those who wish they were doing as well as the supposed
guru.  if  a guru wants to really help others, you would see them post
more  about  the  risk  associated  with  trading  and  how  most all,
including the guru's loose all their money.

there  is  nothing  wrong  with selling a service - there is something
wrong  with  presenting  ONLY  the future profitability side of things
like  one CTA has done here.  It's against the law, and that law exist
for a valid reason.

If  you  take the time to read the complaints on the CFTC web site you
will  see  that  time  and time again.  Hypothetical trades were being
pawned  off as real trades that the supposed guru made.  All the while
the  guru  in  fact  had  no such trades in their own personal trading
accounts.  Again this type of misrepresentation is against the law.

That's  all  my  point is.  Demand evidence and investigate completely
before  you  send  your  money  to  anyone.  Have a nice day!
