> Geoff,
>       I have no personal knowledge of Daniel Kertcher or "Platinum
Pursuits".  They claim to be an "Education Company" with a system that
appears to be based on trading covered calls, with a fixed profit target of
30% and a fixed stoploss of 25%. It is virtually impossible to evaluate
something like this without actually buying it and testing it yourself for a
year or so. Certainly the spectacular claims and enthusiastic testimonials
are par for the course. They claim that "in 15 minutes a month you can
generate returns of 37% a year" - almost sounds too good to be true, doesn't
it?

shortcuts that I know of. In my experience, the most cost-effective approach

>  Geoff, you say that you are "strictly a fundamental investor not a TA
speculator". Trades based on fundamental analysis can be just as speculative
as those based on technical analysis. These different approaches are no more
than tools - how they are used and to what purpose depends entirely on the
individual. TA is an excellent adjunct to FA, using FA to pick your stocks,
and TA to time your entry and exit. Longterm fundamental investors can and
do use TA. See http://www.sharechat.co.nz/archives/2001/06/msg00165.shtml
