Altucher Alliance Altucher Alliance: Some of the newsletters are given more care than others. I feel like new newsletters are launched too often which waters down the rest of them. Many trades have been successful but have been drowned out by big losses from put options that were exercised (gsky) which are now sitting in my account down 70%. Part of that is bad asset allocation on my part since the 100 shares that options trade in is usually a bigger number of shares than I would normally allocate if I was just buying a stock.

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)

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.

Beware Scammers Beware - Total scammers. Also impossible to contact - ignore emails. "Unsubscribe" link in their emails doesn't work. Not sure how this could get worse - PLEASE do not invest with cowboys
