Hi, I thought I would toss in my 2 cents with some observations of someone who has only followed him (Manny) for a couple of weeks now. I just started using real money the last 3 days with a small # of shares(I know, not enough time for a decent evaluation):
First day - still getting used to Interactive Broker's platform and couldn't take the trade.
Second day - slippage did me in and lost $17
Third day - Got wiser and set my hotkey to limit +0.25% so I would either get in close to Manny's price or I wouldn't take the trade. Seemed to work (mainly because the price came back to the original entry, a minute later, and I was able to get a good fill. Made $25 shorting 50 shares of Costco in about 20 minutes, which works out to the 1% that he promises. Of course this is only one day so
too early to tell long term results.
Negatives: His "chat" room is run by a moderator that only allows positive thoughts. If you try and post that you lost money, it will never see the light of day. And there is no way for one person, using the system, to talk to anyone else using the system since e-mails are not allowed in the chat room.
All results are based on him getting in and out at the perfect time with no slippage so one has to take the promised results with that caveat. I figure if I can make .5% every day, on the average, I'll be just fine.
Positive: He does seem to have a good feel for where the market will open, where it will go before reversing. Better than I do, anyway.
The biggest problem I see is slippage, you will (almost) never get in at the exact price he does but, you also don't have to take the trade. The key is getting in with a limit order plus a % (such as 0.25) with a hotkey; if you can't take the trade within 1 second of his "doorbell signal" using a hotkey and limit order, you shouldn't get in at all. If you try and chase his recommendation, you will lose. Forget the trade or wait for the price to come back for a good fill.
As far as him not registering in Pennsylvania, that doesn't bother me.
And I don't see why anyone would have to "get up 2 or 3 hours" before trading; that's what you are paying him for.
All you have to do is get your platform up, get the stock ready on the platform with the ability to enter a trade without a confirmation pop up window, get your 1 minute charts going and your finger on the button. If you have high blood pressure, this stuff is not for you.
I'll let you people know how I'm doing (if anyone is interested
![Sleep :sleep: :sleep:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
). This is way too expensive to stay with if it doesn't generate money fast.
