Then this is my recollection as well. I knew there was at least one guy that did this. I've seen so much over the years.
I also recall that, it turned out, in addition to finding fault with all of his competitors (mostly through highly dubious methods, IMO) and plugging himself by implication (like you said), the guy also gave a few gushing reviews . . . but those turned out to either be outright bought or paid for through affiliate commissions. I believe they also all turned out to be pretty clear scammers. Of course there was never a disclosure of paid reviews or affiliate income until AFTER things were exposed publicly.
That should be posted in Markets Chat thread, it is exactly that kind of person/room that goes against every fiber of my being and will not be permitted on MC.
Thanks for sharing it. If there isn't already a Warrior thread maybe you can create one. I'm not on my workstation to check easily.
Same deal with all the hoo-haw about ICT and the Robbins cup this year. After talking a whole load of $hit, I've seen zero evidence that Vinny even entered the trading contest. It appears he'd rather make a video whining about what a scam the Robbins is, (as an excuse not to enter and have his results scrutinized and auditable) and then decided to have his own little "competition" all by himself with no supervision or way to verify. Other than his "post the occasional favorable day" trick complete with "broker statements", and livestreaming part of the sessions. Also selectively. This and he's acting like he's kicking everyone's ass and the king of the leaderboard.
Kind of like a child shadowboxing with Tyson Fury on the television and claiming he's opened up a can o' whoopass on him, fighting for the heavyweight title of the world. And winning.
So. Much. Win.
It would almost be adorable if we were talking about a 3 year old. But we're not.
Thank you Bob. I also don't recall Dr. Dean ever being flagged as a scammer. His video reviews are very helpful and he exposes a lot of retail trading vendors who are frauds and outright scammers.
His videos have been very helpful in the past. He saved me a ton of money. I also find his techniques for evaluating trading performance very helpful.
Thank you. I can say from first hand experience that Dr. Dean has very valuable information on retail trading scams and on how to evaluate trading performance correctly. None of his trading vendor recommendations have been shown to have a long term net negative expectancy although that is certainly possible I just have never seen any proof of it. Regarding "paid reviews or affiliate income" Can you share some actual proof about this? I know in general these things are rampant in the retail trading industry.
I have no business relationship with Dr. Dean whatsoever. I have never paid him for anything nor have I ever taken any money from him.
I do talk with him once in a while,
I talk with him from time to time. We share information on trading. We exchange info on social media. We discuss various topics mostly trading related. He showed me some of his excel based trading performance stats (Not 3rd party verified). That's it.
