Great prices, great people and it serves a a great cause. Shop here if you can instead of amazon.com for books, they offer better prices and the money is used for a good cause

I was looking for a place to by bulk supplements without any additives and stumbled upon them. I was surprised to find out how much places like lef.org were charging for supplements just because they put them in capsule or tablet form. In same cases the prices were 5X more plus lef.org fills their products with undesirable additives.

This place is great and prices are excellent

I wanted to give to 5 charities and much to surprise found out that almost all of them had conflicts of interest. Had I not used this site, I would have given blindly to these places. Using this site instead I found 3 more deserving places to donate my hard earned money. Very good site if you are looking to find out how your charity uses its funds and who their sponsors are.

As a kid I always loved Psychology but I never knew it could be applied to the markets. I was pleasantly surprised to find out many of the principles I was famillar with could be used quite well in the stock market and with impressive results. I happen to find technica analysis interesting but could never quite grasp all the concept as as market technicians seem to go out of their way to make the concept difficult for novice traders. Tactical Investor really combines the concepts of mass psychology and technical analysis well. I would say this is both a newsletter and an educational service as it helps one get a better graps on the subject of MP and TA.

Tip for consumers:
It takes a few weeks to get used to their style so give it at least a month. If the trial offer is there sign up for it as its a low risk way to test their service.

If you are into technical analysis this is a good place to start. Its free for chart with up to 5 years worth of data and many of the indicators are free too. Woud be nice if they had 10 and 20 years charts but hey its free so I can't complain

The ads so intrusive and pushy that if you are naive you could easily be tricked into paying for something that is one order short of being crap. For basic data this site is okay but be ready to put up with a lot intrusive and sneaky look ads.

You are better of by going to contrarian sites such as
Goldseek.com
Tacticalinvestor.com
Safehaven.com
Marketoracle

Most of the authors have an agenda, the site is completley biased against Technical Analysis, even though many of the authors have good track records. I remember following Sol Palha and Arvy, and suddeny Sol Palha stopped publishing. I asked him why, he responded that they would not publish any article unless he included fundamental analysi and kept the TA to a minimum. The ironic part is that this author proved himself over and over again through the articles he had published on other sites but they would not have it. So he Sol left and then Arvy also left.

Their premium service now that is a joke, who would pay $200 for such a service. I asked someone that used it for two months, they said got nothing out of it.
