Great thread Winston. Just want to add some comments from my side:
I can't talk about ALL the commercial websites, but I think majority would agree with 60minuteman that such commercial websites GIVE value, knowledge and understanding of the market, provide some strategy for beginners. They provide initial education. They are educational websites. Of course, that's not enough to be a successful trader. But we all know that even with best strategy one can be a loser, while other would generate hundreds of %. Same applies with most simple strategy. So I think you would also agree that your above statement is not correct. It's all about human. As normal, majority fails, but we shouldn't question that there are those who start to be successful traders.
We all should more concentrate on your second statement:
I would also agree with this. It is really highly unlikely. IF some are successful, probably that success is very small or not so consistent, compared to fees received from members. There is NO REASON to hide verified proof of profit.
P.S. Don't know if there are any commercial websites that provide real proofs (never tried to search), but if there are any - it would be interesting to see what are the returns.
