I don't personally use advisory services. I tend to think they would be trading not chatting, if they are as good as they say they are. That being said I have received several emails with some claims of huge gains form these guys:
I use a couple of advisory services. What I do not like about most of them is that they post fake results. For example, www.stockpicktrader.com post their gains like this.
Enter 25 ... max high 30, half of max high 27.50.....
What the heck!??#$# How are you suppose to know if the stock is going to go up 1/2 point or 5 points! Sites that do not post entry and target and stops are JOKES.... ..just my opinion.
I just go turned onto theprotrader.com. They do a fairly good job with stock picks.... even better though, they offer a money back guarantee, which no service does. Another service I like is www.elliottwave.com. These two fit my style fo trade... for the moment at least...
