I tried TJ's service for a one-month free trial. Essentially, whether you made money or got killed depended on the speed of your internet connection. Those who received the calls first sold to those who received them next. A 30 second delay in your email would kill you. Unless you faded. But if you faded too late, you got killed by the second wave action which sometimes (but not always) took the stock price higher (assuming a long call) than the first wave. TJ had his membership up to a critical mass at whichpoint he was almost guaranteed a profit, his "preferred customers" could usually at least break even, and the rest would pay the freight. Like a mini-pyramid. It was quite an interesting study in psychology. This of course is all my humber opinion; I can't prove any of it; take it with a shaker of salt; don't sue me if I'm wrong, etc.
