Agreed, that actually was one of my issues with Felton. The track record would show many trades that were never even mentioned in the trade room. It should not be touted as a track record, it is...

I understand not wanting to trade live when you cannot fully concentrate on the trading. Can't ask a pitcher to teach you how to throw a curve ball, while he is in the middle of a game. I don't...

I was not referring to revealing one's trading method. The point I was trying to make is that a few well chosen cherry picked winning signals are not enough to prove a method works. You need a...
