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.

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.

They obviously don't care about these… They obviously don't care about these reviews. They are ignoring all my correspondence. I have tried to cancel auto renewal on my subscription as I got stung last time and they refuse to refund but there is no response. If they don't come back to me I will report them.

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.

James Altucher AlphaBrain James Altucher has provided a wealth of financial information and taught me a lot about using leverage and options. But with his service you don’t need to be constantly reading up on the latest goings on in the financial markets, you can just use his buy and sell signals to generate impressive profits. For example his latest AlphaBrain service has produced profits of 20% to 30% each week for several weeks in a row. Excellent stuff! Keep it up!
