Minimal capital = minimal gains

I'd generally agree...but on one of your thread headers there is reference to 50% gains per month I believe, something that would blow away any trader in either market wizard book.

I would think it would be safe to assume virtually anyone could come up with a modest $10,000. At 50% per month, it would take only one year to accumulate $1,297,463...a very nice sum to trade with. It wouldn't take much longer at 50%/month to rival Bill Gates wealth.

Sorry...but I have to call BS on that...

Again, "trades" in games with no emotion or $ on the line are a long, long way from being able to do it in real life.

I think if I was going to pay someone for calls, I'd want to be sure they could do it in real life...but someone who could do it in real life probably wouldn't want to bother spending their time marketing their picks...

It's an interesting paradox...
