While you guys are on the topic, does anyone here have a read on Pristine? I'm considering the SF seminar, but thought the seasoned vets among you might have an opinion of its worth. TIA. Pierre

As far as warning people goes, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him dive. Check out the response to my post #206 over at The Best Day Trader Training thread. Of course all the training programs have a majority of losers, but if they can't find one live winner for you to speak to then watch out! Block Trading's record was supposedly 100% losers before they shut down. But they had a great web presence---(I remember bookmarking them)---and that's enough bait for alot of the suckers in the shallow end of the pool.

Following up on yesterday's Robin Dayne scam, here's a NY Times article: Relevant quote: <<State securities regulators added the scams Monday to their annual list of the ''top ten'' investment frauds. Also added were high-priced seminars in ''day trading,'' in which inexperienced investors are convinced they can get rich quick by rapid-fire buying of selling of stocks.>> nytimes.com Edit: I was going to post this on Robin Dayne's thread, but her board has since disappeared. Good riddance! Let's keep up the heat on this one. Morgan
