Netpicks. The good the bad and everything in between.

[rbigsby]

Good Morning rbigsby,

Does NetPicks or Coach Shane or anyone at netpicks have a 1-5 year trading track record I can view? Yes or No?

Coach Shane has been trading since before 2011 so I imagine he has a pretty extensive trading track record. Whether he would be willing to open it up to a complete stranger is another matter. Because I don't think it would be beneficial of him to do that since in my opinion he doesn't even trade netpicks' trading systems even though he is a coach. Maybe he used to trade it but i think he has his own system now.

with regards to netpicks as a company, in one of their blog postings you can read the following:


Netpicks has trading systems that have been fully tested not only by the developers, but also by those who purchase them. All systems come with trade plans that are only released once they pass testing using past data plus forward testing in live markets.

If the answer is No, they are lying, scamming and stealing your money and any other customer money they purchase their services.

those are pretty harsh words. but i understand what your point is. but most of the netpicks coaches seem like pretty likeable people. people you could be friends with if you knew them in real life. not out to hurt people.

YOU are the Customer, YOU MUST DEMAND that your hard earn money in your savings is spent probably. And if you are spending your hard earn money on any trading product or services that you do not know for a fact will make you and your family consistent income and build you consistent wealth, then you are getting scammed and will lose your family money.

i dont know of anyone that guarantees their trading system against losses you take using it. if they did that, they would out of business pretty fast!

You must DEMAND these trading educators provide you proof of profitability before you purchase their services.

i actually tried one of netpicks systems once it costed quite a bit. but it had a money back guarantee if i was not happy with it. i called them and told them i wanted a refund. refund was given. no questions asked.

i think they might have gotten a bit more stringent on their refund policy by having this special terms and conditions based on the performance of the system now so buyer beware.

There is not wrong with purchasing trading education, but at least make sure the education is proven worthy.

You come FIRST, not Netpicks and their coaches and what they are talking about.

Thank you,

unfortunately, while that may be true, it's not the reality. people are desperate out there and netpicks has customers from all over the world. maybe even third world countries where poverty is rampant who knows. many people are desperate to have a way to make money. and they need help with that. netpicks to the rescue...

Hello rbigsby,

Would you let a home builder with no proven track record of building a house for a customer build a house for your family and kids to sleep in every night for the next 100 years? Yes or No ?

No probably not. I would want to see some pictures of homes they had built prior to building one for me!

Maybe even do a google search for reviews on them if I had internet access:


a few really bad reviews here:
https://www.forexpeacearmy.com/forex-reviews/179/netpicks-trading-education

alot of good reviews here:
https://www.trustpilot.com/review/netpicks.com

After looking at some of the bad reviews it struck me that there is another side to running netpicks that most of us probably don't realize and that is dealing with angry customers. a customer who is complaining and wanting their money back and you have to decline to do that since they didn't qualify for a refund. i can only imagine the types of phone calls/emails they have received over the years. that's a side of their business we DON'T see but oh the stories they could tell...

" Netpicks has trading systems that have been fully tested (tested for what?)not only by the developers, but also by those who purchase them (who are they?). All systems come with trade plans that are only released once they pass testing (what is passing and how is it measured ?) using past data plus forward testing in live markets. Where is this test data? Can i see it? did you see it? That is a pure sales con job


"many people are desperate to have a way to make money. and they need help with that. netpicks to the rescue." To be clear , netpicks is sales room not a trade room. netpicks does not have a track record of performance. Neticks does not take any live trades. netpicks does not even trade their own system. There's no documented records that netpicks helped anyone not alone rescued anyone - that is a complete and total fabrication based on pure ignorance. netpicks is owned and operated by salesman not traders. They might have once been traders but now they are pure salesman all vendor no trader. And that is the long and short of it, pun intended.

you ask too many questions.

you state many things as facts but in reality they should be qualified by the phrase "in my opinion" or " as far as i can tell" i'm not sure i even agree with everything you stated...

Notice how Coach Shane's videos are not about their current shiny object latest new trading system his videos are just generic information about trading not that it's not helpful but it has nothing to do with netpicks systems either.

Is that a giveaway we ignorant amateur retails should know and be careful?

absolutely. don't think that coach shane is necessarily trading their latest system OVERNIGHT POP TRADES. checkout the netpicks homepage it's right on the front where you can opt in and find out more.

coach ron and i used to email a bit back and forth when he was a netpicks coach. i was always giving him a hard time about their "ultimate swing trader". he had a short fuse but tolerated me the best he could. at least he replied to most of my inquiries. unfortunately coach ron passed away so he's no longer available to talk to. i really liked him. he was my favorite coach.

coach ron was the best:

And you do not ask ENOUGH questions.

You will be scammed soon and lose all your money and time and energy.

And you do not ask ENOUGH questions.

you sound like the ideal customer that any trading vendor would love to have as a customer. always asking to see proof of everything in alot of detail.

You will be scammed soon and lose all your money and time and energy.

i dont think so.

what do you think about this story though?

coach will at netpicks apparently spent 1 HOUR for free to help a customer get setup with their trading system on their computer. if that isn't going the extra mile then i don't know what is. some people charge hundreds of dollars per hour for personalized attention. i know of one trader who charges $100 for one hour of phone consultation. another one charges almost $500. netpicks charged that customer $0. just because he was a customer they helped him out.

Netpicks is running a youtube pre-roll ad very basic. Coach Shane offers a free options trading guide for free. He doesnt even say anything about netpicks. Very generic although the netpicks logo is under the video. Thats how i knew it was netpicks.

Once someone opts in netpicks will start sending them emails and probably start inviting them to a live webinar where they can buy the entire system. These live webinars are only done every so often like once every couple months.

When people get in to those webinars they must get FOMO or something.
