Quote from retaildaytrader:
The point of Robert Hoffman is not so he can give you fish to fry, but so you can learn how to get your own fish.
Robert Hoffman is not a guru trader, but an experienced trader. The one difference that puts him ahead of the rest is that he is an excellent teacher. Most experienced traders are not very good teachers, but Hoffman seems to teach pretty well. No one said his methods are better then anyone else, but he will certainly bring someone up to speed fairly quickly with his simple techniques and wonderful ability to teach.
$300 or however much he charges is a small amount of money to pay when you think how much could be really lost.
