Well it must be, otherwise they would lose all their clients on the long term. They are making money no matter if you make or lose, because they get a commision at the buy point and they don't care if you sell higher or lower.

From my experience all of these people offering to give you trading secrets or strategies are most likely just selling you some sort of package and making money of people believing that these strategies would work. If trading strategies were so simple to implement and make loads of money they would keep these secrets for themselves and be millionaires. Also, if everyone adopts the same strategy (assuming it works), the ability of that strategy to make money will diminish further giving reason for these people to not tell the whole world about it. There is a very good reason why large hedge funds who do use trade strategies don't give away their work. I hope this helps.

i mean there are several systems out there that do actually work, but they cost you a bomb shell. It's almost a much better option to educate yourself and learn the "secrets" for yourself. That makes better sense as it's free and you will actually learn what the process of making a good profit is, that way you can multiply your strategies and make much better gains. You can get loads of free information on the net, no need for the systems. A general rule in life, things you get easily are easily lost. Things you work for will last you a lifetime.
