Comment: As you see, there are lots of
subjects being discussed. You will benefit from a wide array of facts,
experiences, wisdom and knowledge on many subjects. Members use this wealth of
information to make money or save money.
Question: Is membership more likely to
help experienced traders or beginning traders?
Answer:
Both will
benefit equally. New traders will benefit greatly, because our more experienced
members will be submitting informative and helpful articles, many of them
relevant to less experienced traders. Experienced traders will also benefit
greatly, as the subjects are pertinent to all members, whatever their
experience.
Comment:
Both new and
experienced traders will get lots of benefits. This includes product reviews
from actual product users, reviews and articles covering popular trading
systems, opinions and reviews on various trading methods, books, courses,
opinions on brokers, hotlines, and lots of other knowledge to make you
successful. Plus, methodologies used by members to trade successfully. Most of
our insights, facts, wisdom and knowledge are unique, and not available or
difficult to obtain from traditional sources.
P.S. - If you have never traded futures before,
its a great way to obtain the necessary knowledge to get started in futures.
Question: Can someone who has been (or
is) a losing trader or a new trader benefit?
Answer:
Most
definitely! You will study the wealth of information and gain great knowledge.
After paying particular attention to the loss potential and risk involved, you
can decide if commodity trading is right for you. You will find that if it's
done right, always using a stop-loss order, proper discipline and using good
products and services, the great profit potential always present in futures
trading more than makes up for the substantial risk that's inherent in
commodity trading.
Comment: Becoming a CTCN member is a
great way for traders who have lost money or for new traders,
to get an
inexpensive and fast education. You will then be able to trade profitably, and
be far less likely to lose money or not waste money . . . thanks to knowledge
gained and by buying the most beneficial products and services.
Your goal should be to become an expert in trading. Then
you will become financially independent, and in a position to quit your job (if
desired), by getting great income from your trading activities. Your membership
in CTCN will be a vital and crucial step to reach your goals,
with a faster and much less expensive learning-curve involved.
Question: Will someone who has lots of
experience with commodity trading still benefit?
Answer: A quotation from the most
famous trader of all time, Mr. W. D. Gann, is appropriate here. He traded
stocks and commodities from the early 1900's to the mid-1950's and reportedly
made fifty million dollars. Gann said "in his 50-plus years of trading
there was never a week that went by where he did not learn something new."
This is also true today.
Comment:
No matter
how experienced you are, there's always something new to add to your knowledge
base. This includes new techniques, methodologies, new tools, systems, services
and products you will learn about, to get you on the road (or keep you on the
road) to highly profitable and successful trading.
Question:
Are specific
company, trading system, service or vendor names used?
Answer: There is normally no guessing
about the product or subjects being referred to. Members will usually identify
individual, company, or product involved.
Comment:
There is
really no reason for anyone to withhold the identity of individuals, service or
product referred to. As long as the truth is told or an honest opinion given,
without intent of malice, it's both ethical and legal. In addition, since the
club is for members only, you are not publicly talking about anyone. As member,
Wayne Roberts wrote in one of our back-issues: "CTC is a
private club for members only, and outsiders' eyes are not suppose to be
reading it."
Question:
Are members
actively involved in vendor bashing and negative articles?
Answer:
Not much, but
there is sometimes a small degree of it involved. However, the main intention
is a learning experience and positive connotation, rather than negative,
including positive trading products/methods/systems/ services.
Comment: If there are negative
articles, it's assumed the truth is being told and member's fair and honest
opinion given. There's no way the editor can verify the correctness of all
contributions. CTC is not a Judge and Jury, and doesn't have the resources or
authority to verify how accurate contributions are. However, contributions
are most always accurate and correct.
