Okay his weekly newsletter is very lenghty and wordy with no charts and 20 stocks a week and two triggers for each stock. I did read the introduction to the indices which was fair and the coloquial friendly text to get everyone to trade with him can be endearing at best (reminiscent of the infomercials on late night tv), or (manipulative at worst) however I am currently "subscribed" to 4 daily newsletters (2 free trials, and 1 free completely, 1 will likely be fee-based shortly (at least so they say) that are wonderful and offer charting, market direction analysis, sector strength, watch lists etc. They also offer on line web conferencing seminars which are rather well-priced ($99 to $199 for 8 to 10 hours) and are 'recorded' to DVD with the charts and manual used and I find the chart patterns in these on-line seminars can be used and watched again and again and I am recognizing these patterns as they recur in my own trading.

I too cannot tolerate rooms with some many different calls and 'information overload' which is why I like the newsletter format and one or two threads for some morning ideas. Everyone has a right in this capitalistic society to make a buck but I'd rather see him on an infomercial where I can mute him out and enjoy the 'shenanigans (showing average folks living in trailer parks or otherwise not extremely skilled (at least that's what the impression is) making $5,000 a week learning the "trend trading" strategy etc. but I guess its 'cheaper' promoting on IHUB. I'm wondering why IHUB doesn't charge for advertising and put the pay sites under a separate heading and area like they do with the ads. I am intending to sign up but I don't want to be looking at banners but I also don't want to be bothered by pay sites pan handling for my business on the threads that I bookmark. It should be our right to be entirely 'ad free' on these more popular threads. Now I'm not a paid subscriber so I must endure that I guess. This trader promised to post his trades and charts in the future for 'our group' so let's say we call a truce and see if he really honors his promises.
