You do know that the commissions that investment banks charge HF and others is for the research. It falls under Research Sales. That excludes tags analyst get. There is an internal conflict between Sales Trading and Research Sales.
If somebody called you with an idea that made you money you would give them the trade. That is the theory.

Quote from 74Man:
Not a single losing year from year 2000 to year 2010.
I am associated with a highly reputed Forex managed company who manages about $100 million and they have for past 11 years paid average profit of +27% per annum without compounded interest.
Income/profit is "Tax-free" for most countries of the world.
This managed forex company was started/registered 22 years back. But the CEO (forex manager) has some 35+ years of forex experience and has a registered company in Switzerland.
Our company also trades in Gold & Silver, S&P 500. Minimum investment $20,000, $40,000 and $100,000
