The patterns are breakeven at best and the 'Room' results just shouldn't be allowed to be put forward as accurate.<BR/>That said, the lessons learned there can be carried forward into ones own trading and once the real trading journey starts then the trader can prove or disprove things for themselves. Unfortunately Woodies room is full of new impressionable lazy people who believe what they are told and who are looking for the 'quick' way to riches. Dream on. <BR/>Its wholly unfair to criticise Woodies room in general and to pick on some of the good people therein. However, specific criticisms are well placed and more than justified. I cannot understand how things have been allowed by the regulators to continue. Education is one thing but self promotion through trading results that are fantasy is purely misleading, especially now that the room has commercialised and wants to start charging for the 'auto traders' at $200 a setup.<BR/>The justification is that the hardware has to be bought and supported but its really just an earning opportunity. If 100 people sign up for just one system and they give it just three months then that $60,000. How much of that is really 'support' costs? Woodies is turning into a revenue machine. Nothing wrong with that. Everyone is entitled to earn a buck. But, shouldn't it be declared as such and not hidden behind 'charity' and 'support costs' and 'administration' etc.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11708790.post-540362540102533872007-08-23T19:41:00.000-05:002007-08-23T19:41:00.000-05:00experienced traders that have been with W a long t...experienced traders that have been with W a long time know the minimal value of cci but few speak out.Why? Also PFG must know the same so why would they support these trade-alongs? I probably dont want to know why at the risk of being disillusioned about the integrity of people.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11708790.post-80387198853678694892007-08-23T17:44:00.000-05:002007-08-23T17:44:00.000-05:00Yes, I must know about Mitten's latest pattern, th...Yes, I must know about Mitten's latest pattern, the shampoo, at the next Trade Along.
