Ignorant really isn't fair, life is blocks of time for blocks of money. If I train someone, give them free support, pay initial expenses then I like to look at it as if it were a tution fee..rebait.. I charge nothing and only make money from my traders if they make money, the small amount of...

If you are now a successful trader the main thing you should be concerning yourself with is the security of your principal. If you have been trained by a firm that has put time and money into you and gives you 75percent of profits I don't see really your point. This firm deserves earning from...
