I just stumbled on this thread and wanted to leave some words in here.
First I feel bad for fxtrader that pipmutt has been trying to hijack his thread the whole time. Secondly I think it's pretty stupid to question Jacko's credibility since it's well known that he is a good and profitable trader.
Just my opinion about how some folks want to make fools out of themselves.
About good mentors:
I think a good mentor is someone who knows both the theoretical and the practical aspects of a certain business. Lot's of people can talk endlessly but can't bring it into practise in real life.
But do all theories work? No! A mentor should be able to recognize which theories work and which don't. A good mentor should teach a "way to do it" which makes sense and which has the desired outcome; consistant profitability.
Thirdly. It is important that a mentor can meet the personal needs of his students. For sure there are limitations to it, especially in a group mentorship. In that case it is good if the students can ask personal questions from the mentor and make requests of what subject needs extra attention.
Jacko qualifies in my opinion for all of the above mentioned requirements.
My opinion about Jacko's mentoring service:
As a member of Jacko's group I am learning a lot from an experienced trader. This trader updates his blog multiple times a day with his market views and the reasoning behind it. In case there is still something not clear to me, I can e-mail him and he will reply me quickly with his answer.
A good feature of this mentoring service is that I can read some e-mails from other members and the answer Jacko gives to it. That way I am able to gain extra knowledge if I can extract something new out of the questions and the answers to 'em.
I don't need to tell the following since it has been told many times but just for the record: yes Jacko is profitable, yes his service is worth the $ 700 a year, yes he is a good mentor, yes I am satisfied.
