Avoid Agora Financial They promote highly misleading "info products", newsletter services etc - the current scam is a load of deceptive guff about Brexit severance cheques which can be "claimed" by UK citizens. If you subscribe (for a fee of £37 followed by further amounts of around £100 per year) they will tell you the "secret" of how to claim these. There is no "secret" - it's just a reference to the share dividends paid by listed companies and anyone can get these by buying dividend paying shares. Same company owns Moneyweek magazine and also use a number of other names including Southbank Research, Capital and Conflict, Betting Rant, The Daily Reckoning, The End of Britain etc. (Agora Financial UK Ltd. Registered in England and Wales No 1937374)

Desperate company that will tell you … Desperate company that will tell you anything to get you to sign up to one of their schemes that don't work 9 times out of 10 or you can only get in America. Jim Rickards who I had a lot of respect for initially is now being used as a fool to again publish schemes that do not work.

Agora et al are all scams Agora is the main company that owns and distributes via a large network of scam newsletters. They are all a scam, period. Use common sense and read these reviews. Their services prey on individual investors through bogus analysts and traders. Fake people with no verifiable backgrounds. Offices that are all postal boxes primarily in Florida. They make millions banking on our stupidity. Avoid at all costs. Don't find out the hard way. Simply avoid their web.

Stay away from Agora Financial Stay away from Agora Financial, James Altucher, Alan Knuckman, et al. The "advice" they sell does not produce a net gain in the value of your portfolio. Some recommendations work out profitably, but the ones that do not will cause you to lose far more money than the profitable trades. I began the above-mentioned Agora services in May of 2018. By December, I had made $8500 through their recommendations, but I was $25,000 underwater in sold puts that expired short of the strike price. Many purchased call options have expired worthless. I knew going in that option trading was risky. This has been a costly experience that will take years to fully recover from.

Impressive I'm impressed with the fact that for the most part, James doesn't force a position for the sake of `coming up' with something. He seems to know when to take your gains off the table even if they run higher afterward. The research story behind the suggested positions is very informative and I'm glad the homework is so thorough. And last but not least, it's very interesting if not disarming to hear James real-life trials and tribulations that he's willing to share and ... bare.
