I would like to warn people about IFII (tycoon report). I was trading with them for 20 months and lost a bundle. I was with profit skimmer (1 of their services) for 14 months Jan 2012-Mar 2013. Losing trades were over 75%. I could document all the trade alerts, but I will do that for the next service I tried which was boot camp trader. Touted as a hybrid of learning and trade alerts. Once a week we would have about a 60-90 min webinar. They were disorganized and often went off on tangents about a single trade. After 6 weeks or so the moderator just kept going over the same points. Here are the 28 trades (do not think I missed any but possible) 23 losers 1 big winner 2 small winners and a couple of break even. less than 11% winners.
