    Last time I posted a link to a BBC article I got threatened by a lawyer. Let's see if it happens again :)
    The BBC went on a Knowledge To Action course

    I don't know why you'd be threatened, seems a pretty balanced article to me. Says its high risk and not for everyone but isn't claiming its a complete con just not as easy as it might appear from the marketing.

    It was just a tongue-in-cheek comment following a previous run in. Yes the article is balanced and I think useful for anybody thinking of signing up to a seminar with any Forex company.

    In other words you could lose every penny but it wouldn't be a complete con as that would be the fault of your own poor trading decisions, not the seminar.

    I found that same article today. There is also one from The Guardian. I showed it to someone who wants to try them, they still want to try them.

    To each their own I guess.

    Lol. Unbelievable. The penny obviously hasn't dropped that Secker makes all his money by selling expensive trading courses, not actually trading. Each to their own right enough.

    £13K to complete the course. Clearly there's more money in selling training courses to the gullible than FOREX trading.

    The only way to guarantee that you will end up with a small fortune from forex trading is to start with a large one :rotfl:
