I see nothing scary about that. There is this thing called due diligence and then investing always involves considerable risk, so you should do it only with the money you can afford to lose. Stick to that and you will do fine. Investing or trading is not for everyone and that explains why 90% of...

Vendetta? Why don't you first disclose that you are a shill for Emmet Moore, a certified criminal that served about 3 years for scamming his fellow citizens. Insinuating that trading loonies have some ulterior motives for exposing Big Mike without providing evidence for that is uncool to say the...

I am not affiliated with them. Not a vendor either. However, Big Mike is a vendor, or a crypto-vendor, so perhaps that's where you should focus. Also, the trading loonies blog is not promoting any vendors nor does it sell anything. They are as independent and without a shred of conflict of...

Why don't you just educate yourself. Yes, it can be a pain in the ass to do research, but ignorance is hardly a better option. Just because Trump, Big Mike and their ilk love poorly educated does not mean that the poorly educated are getting the best deal by hanging out in the company of such...

Al Brooks is a certified BS artist and I said so on this forum years ago if I recall it correctly. That also explains why he is promoted so heavily on the BMT forum which is run by another loser and charlatan. These people love their own company and the company of the poorly educated whom they...

That explains why Trump and his ilk love the poorly educated. So easy to take advantage of them, isn't it? Well, at least, Trump does not pretend to be much of a Christian. Only if he needs it. To impress the poorly educated, that is.

And these things are correlated. Healthy brains require healthy bodies and without healthy brains you cannot appreciate math or science let alone be good at it.

So, in other words you expect the taxpayer to pay for someone's greed and stupidity? Over my dead body, pal! Everyone can get scammed once or twice. But smart people use it as a learning experience and move on, while stupid ones develop an unhealthy habit of seeking a savior among ever more...

Speaking of the Trading Loonies blog (one of my favorite trading sites), here's their recent post about what's going on the futures.io so-called trading forum (really a criminal vendor enterprise using the trading forum as a facade and now operating from a banana republic of Panama) regarding...

Generally, a good point. There is more than one way to be a legitimate teacher, but the more evidence you can provide you can trade (even on a simulator) the better. Most of these trading geniuses cannot trade successfully even on a simulator. Or, at least, there is hardly any evidence that they...

Only $4K? Wow, this guy is the next Mother Teresa or something. More like something. I bet he knows what he is doing. There is a sucker born every minute...

Only if the next stop in your "trading" career is that of a scam/ripoff artist. Being a greedy loser strangely appeals to idiots seeking advice from "experienced" traders like that. Big Mike (Michael Boulter) is an excellent example of how this can work.

130 is enough already, which is what Buffett meant. This has been misinterpreted by some that your IQ can be arbitrarily low and you can still make it as a trader. That's a myth. Intelligence helps, but other factors are of importance too. Emotional maturity is one of those. You can call it EQ...

So this guy is a JD, PhD, MBA and he is still dumb. Well, too much of a good thing, I guess. He probably got a JD first and then they just could not refuse giving him the other two, LOL. Lawsuits can be costly.

"Americans are so gullible, just advertise no commission costs and they come out of woodwork but make spread wider and then some." Yes, Americans definitely are. But I don't think this is limited to Americans. I once saw a documentary about a Nigerian scam and one of the victims featured there...
