One more thing, re: TrendCat's posting of their supposed statements. Aside from the fact that they're obviously doctored, failing to have a brokerage name on them, or to include what instrument was traded, at what time entered, and for what prices, etc. Aside from all that, at a few points they lost over $1,000 which amounted to 20-25% of their account. I presume they trade what they teach. Do you want to follow someone who'd lost over 20% of their account on a trade, a couple times in a row?! And most of the account increase supposedly occurred on three trades the last day, going from $6,000 to $18,000. Yeah, right. Unbelievable...

I disagree. I have been a member of TI going on two years now and dont regret anything. I was a beginner trading Eminis and learned how to become profitable through TI. Now that they have Erica Villalon, I am learning FOREX as well. Still trading in SIM but the numbers are great. TI is the real deal. I can see how some people would think its a scam because of their cheesy marketing, but I would join just for the FOREX room. Feel free to shoot me your thoughts or questions.

It is painful to read these testimonials...they simply don't realize what they are saying....

Still Sim trading after 2 YEARS!!!...the costs mount and it is obvious the trader does not have the funds to trade (went to TI) or lacks confidence in what they have offered him...

I don't think Dale Kazdan works with Traders International anymore. I have logged in a few times in the past month and I have not seen him. Funny thing is that they have not changed a bit since I got suckered in last year. Same old charts, same old crap. As far as the FOREX trades go, I will follow them and then let you guys know how it goes (I have to pay these jokers for 1 more month and I'll be through with this nonsense. I wouldn't doubt that the FOREX is doing too bad because it moves a lot more than the futures in my opinion, so the signals are a bit more clear.

That being said, I still don't think that they can make you enough money to even come close to paying for the course and your living expenses.

Bottom line, DO NOT sign up with ANY "system" that people try to sell you for tons of money. If you pay attention, you will notice they all say one thing....."our system is not for everybody; oh and by the way....NO REFUNDS". Why should you dish out $1k-$10k of your hard earned money on something that is so iffy. Are you rich? You have money to throw away? If you answered yes to these questions, then plz, drop me a line an I will gladly sell you my setups, which I made for FREE, and charge you $1k for it. Oh, and I'll put in a disclaimer that says, "Here is my middle finger if you don't like it."

To all you newbie traders, ESPECIALLY those of you wanting to learn to trade the futures or forex, STOP looking for someone else to trade for you. I've said it a billion times now, the only person that is going help you make money is YOU. Now, if you are looking for help on where to start, what software to get, how to do research, how to read the charts, etc, etc....then go to forums like this one and ASK. IT'S FREEEEEEEEEEEEEE. Quit being lazy.

You know what the sad thing is? I started this post over 8 months ago, and not once has anyone who has read this even asked for help on how to learn to trade on their own!!!! Everyone keeps asking the same question......where can I throw my money away in hopes of someone making me money?!

I know I'm going to get tons of crap for posting the rest of this, but I don't care - I use this site and I am making money. And I don't have to give all my earnings back to the site.
The reason I mentioned www.daytradingradio.com in my original post is because I have seen his trading and I am making money and learning from him every day. And guess what, he has tons of FREE video's on youtube that you can watch and learn from (and non of that propriatary crap). Go to youtube and type daytraderrockstar in the search field. He has a 2 week money back gaurentee and it doesn't cost $10k. If you don't like it, you can walk away free and clear and try to find help somewhere else. He doesn't trade the futures too often, but he covers e-mini futures every day. What you learn from him trading stocks can be carried over to trading the futures and forex because they all work the same way.

I'll post my findings on the FOREX stuff in about a month or so (probably at the end of my death sentence with them), because I cant stay awake till 3 in the morning every day.
