Poor trade calls I understand from reading online that St Paul Reserch is under the umbrella of Agora Financial, hence this review. St. Paul Research is exceptionally bad with what they recommend for trades. I highly recommend you don't waste your money on their services.

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.

This company is pretty much a scam This company is pretty much a scam. Lured me into a lifetime membership with one of their trading services. I found out immediately that their trading strategy was simply not for me. Talked to one of their representatives but was not able to switch to some other service that they had. I am feeling like I've thrown away $2000 in water... Not helpful at all.

Biginners doubt usually turn to trust with time. I have been using many of the Agora financials division e-Letters alongside other Financial e-letters. Stansberry research; Oxford club: Motley fool: etc. since 1960's. While they are a very good source of financial knowledge for beginners and others. they are not predictors of the future. You cannot buy every one of their submission because you are not millionaires, but if you follow their advice you will win more often than you have loss. They are not difference from school, you start fearfull and with doubt; you will end up much richer as the years roll by./

I subscribed to Bubble Finance and lost a ton $$ I subscribed to the newsletter, which was a bit pricey. My recommendation - Don't use this advice! I invested in 7 or 8 options over a period of time in 2017 per Stockman Bubble Finance Letter advice, which seemed well developed and rational. Every one of the puts turned into losses, over $18,000 cumulative lost in 1 year (including the recent TSLA, XPO and SPY puts expiring 1/18/18). Unless you can afford to lose your portfolio, you will be better off in a passive index!! PS. I cancelled my subscription!
