c'mon fung_ let it be a scam if you like, then better stay outside..., only 2 choices, trade or don't trade... 1000s of people posting their calls on stocks each day in threads... that's the way it is... but the selective decision 'if', 'when', 'how much', 'how long' everyone takes for himself self-responsible... one makes money, another one loses... that's stock market... no one is forced to participate... and yep, some risks have to be taken for profits... that's true...
