Jim,
In this business the ultimate proof is if the gooroo is able to impart
enough market education for one to
trade?  If not then, it is all bullshit.  That is the sure check.   If in
about 2 months of listening and working
the trade that you understand and you don't make money on the set up.. Kiss
his/her ass good Bye.

Your own ego gets involved because at time's it actually filters out what
you need to know.   It's the
issue of your mind filters only what it is conditioned to see. This is very
dangerous with the market.

Some of the information you learn about is what not to do.  That is pretty
valuable in and of itself, but
it tends to only impede progress, because one ends up gathering bad habits
that you ultimately have
to unlearn..
