The problem is that you have a person who is probably new to trading
and they are clinging to the hope that someone will sell them the Holy
Grail for a mere few thousand bucks. Then when confronted with reality
they immediately defend their potential cash cow.
There is no logical separation of fact and fiction. They have assumed
that because the sales guy sounds nice on the phone and because they
sell zillions of these a day, everything is ok. Well they sold
zillions of Ford Pinto's with FireStone 500 tires too. The practical
business application of the normal world does not in any way apply to
trading. In fact if one were to truly succeed at trading he would most
likely be a total contrarian to the heard mentality.
I'll make the same closing statement that one other fellow did. It's
amazing to me that they are still in business and not in jail.
