great site/service if you can trade in your 401k

Obviously seeking alpha is a well know investment site. Go look up Jason Bond there and read some Of his articles. The guy is legit.

I love it when people think they can beat the market over the long run.

Plenty of people beat the market over the long run. They just don't do it by following con-men like this guy. They do it by mimicking brilliant investors who make their money investing, not by selling their picks to others. Like I said, if you want to make real money in stocks, then start by reading Security Analysis by Graham & Dodd. That's real investing, not gimmicks. It works just as well today as it did 60 years ago.

How is he a con when he backs up what he does? I have seen it. Does that make me a con. If you are on the SWA side you know who I am.

Let me ask you, how is his service any different from any financial advisor or newsletter such as 401k maximizer or the like? Please do tell.

Nope, not on the SWA side, and never will be. So I don't know who you are, but it doesn't really matter, because I'm not trying to disparage your character. I just think you're falling for this guy's act. He's the bad guy, not you.

Frankly, I think pretty much all of them are useless scams. For the average investor who doesn't want to spend much time doing his own research, ETFs and index funds are the way to go. For people who are willing to put the time into it, they should be studying fundamentals to reach the maximum return. Trading may seem more "fun," but it only leads to reduced returns.

I guess that makes the world go round but I guess that would make you just as bad spouting off about things you don't know about. How can you say it is a con when you have never placed a trade off it or done the research about it. Pot meet kettle.

Have you ever read "The Intelligent Investor," or "Security Analysis?" If not, I would encourage you to do so. You'll find the folly in the idea that you can beat the market long-term by high-frequency trading rather than focusing on fundamentals.

No one has ever become a billionaire by being an active trader. But the Forbes list is filled with people who become billionaires by following the tried and true method of fundamentals analysis. Food for thought.

Ok we are beating a dead horse. You have your way I have mine. There are many ways to make money but the ways of 30 years ago can't be applied today. Ever look at a chart of the S&P 500 on a 30 year chart. Please tell me you don't see an interesting pattern. So where we are right now after looking at it tell me where u would place your bet. Also speaking of fundamentals. Do u feel our country's economy fundamentals and the fundamentals of Europe dictate a higher stock market. Minus the fed intervention? Please don't assume I have no idea what I am speaking about.

1 more question. Which will correct te correlation first. The EUR/JPY up or the S&P down. What is your thought on that oh wise investor. I think it is an easy question and answer. I look forward to you view PCL

Took you advice and went to www.investimonials.com to read about Jason Bond. This well researched review should make you think twice about puting your name to this site. I hope you take the time to read it


Ok, here goes. Ive been a member of Jason Bond Picks now for 3 months and have had my shares of ups and downs as most everyone in the stock market does.

This last month has been a bit troubling and there has been quite a rumble stirring in the service about many picks that go bad. At one point we have a member that follows the day trade alerts for the most part and he is losing on 17 out of 18 picks. It happens now and again and it is what it is.

What bothers me though is that another member started to get a bit suspicious about his picks and started investigating the overall service as a whole, and what he came up with is quite amazing.

As of tonight I have been banned from the service for posting what another client had done research on and I wish to share this with the entire population, so that fewer people get fleeced.

I got threatened with a lawsuit for posting this for defamation, but seeing as how the information I will provide is legitiment, he has no grounds to sue.

Here goes..this is not my research and I do not take credit for it, but here is what has been learned.

In August, 2012, I received another email from Jason Bond encouraging his members to go very long on Vringo, Inc. (VRNG) with more passion than any objective trader should (ref link #1). I decided to peal back the curtain.

I offer absolutely no opinion here, I am strictly presenting information readily available to the general public.

Reference links are at the bottom of this text.

Checked GoDaddy.com to identify the registered owner of JasonBondPicks.com, it is Beacon Equity (ref link #2).

Beacon Equity; Jeff Bishop, [email protected]
4828 S. Broadway #182 Tyler, Texas 75703

Beacon Equity is wholly owned by BlueWave Advisors (ref link #14).

Until recently the disclaimer page on Jason Bond Picks site (ref link #3) stated it is wholly owned by BlueWave Advisors (ref link #4). However, it has been changed to a shell company called Patriot Publishing. The terms and conditions page of the site (ref link # 5) lists Patriot Publishing’s address as:

Patriot Publishing, LLC
1910 ESE Loop 323 #168 Tyler, TX 75701

That physical address is simply a UPS Store (ref link #6) which provides mail boxes (ref link #7). Also note that Tyler, Texas home of BlueWave, Beacon Equity and Patriot Publishing, has a population of just 98,500 people.

The same people own both BlueWave and Patriot Publishing, the relationship between all these companies can be seen here: http://www.corporationwiki.com/Texas/Tyler/nic-lesmeister/68432953.aspx

PumpAndDumps.com lists VRNG as the subject of a paid promotion by Beacon Equity (ref link #8). In a posting on their site Beacon Equity confirms it was compensated ten thousand dollars to promote VRNG stock (ref link #9).

In another post on Beacon Equity’s site promoting LQMT, they disclose having front loaded LQMT with this statement “BeaconEquity.com is a wholly-owned subsidiary of BlueWave Advisors, LLC. A principle of BWA has purchased one hundred thousand shares of LQMT in the open market and intends to sell them immediately following this email alert” (ref link #10.

Another site posted an article identifying a partial list of sites owned by BlueWave Advisors, including JasonBondPicks.com and TopStockPicks.com (ref link #11).

Another site owned by BlueWave is crownestockpicks.com. They’re so cookie cutter it even has the same color scheme as JasonBondPicks.com.

The renowned or infamous (depending on your point of view), Timothy Sykes expressed a rather strong opinion regarding Beacon Equity aka BlueWave on his site (ref link #12).

Here’s an article from the Vancouver Sun (ref link #13).

Here are some other sites Beacon Equity owns:

As you can see with links to go along with proof, Jason Bond Picks company, parent company , shell company, whatever you want to call it has been pumping VRNG for some time and in fact has also been compensated for it. This same Jason Bonds Picks company is also responsible for frontloading LQMT, of which he proudly trumpets his victory on and dumped shares upon the alert.

What he did was not illegal, but it calls into question the integrity of the service.

Ok we are beating a dead horse. You have your way I have mine.

Yes, but my way is free, and your way involves giving some dude nearly $1,200 per year to give you "picks," like some sports betting tout. Not to mention that every study clearly shows that the traders always trail the investors, and growth chasers always trail value investors.

There are many ways to make money but the ways of 30 years ago can't be applied today.

The same nonsense that the touts have been saying for decades. And they keep getting proven wrong. Jim Cramer is a perfect example. Just over a year ago he was talking about how Warren Buffett is a has-been, his long-held value investor principals an archaic thing of the past. At the time, BRK.A shares were trading at $120k. Today they're trading at $156k, their all-time high, and Cramer is looking like the dimwitted fool that he is. But he has his followers, just like this Bond guy has his, and Buffett just quietly goes about making money the old fashioned way, leaving them all in the dust.

Ever look at a chart of the S&P 500 on a 30 year chart. Please tell me you don't see an interesting pattern.

The only pattern I see is that value investors continue to make money regardless of what the S&P chart shows.

Also speaking of fundamentals. Do u feel our country's economy fundamentals and the fundamentals of Europe dictate a higher stock market. Minus the fed intervention?

There's a difference between market fundamentals and economic fundamentals. The market fundamentals are strong right now, while economic fundamentals are not. Companies are generating strong earnings, revenue, and cash flow growth despite the poor macroeconomic fundamentals. But the market is usually a leading indicator, so economic fundamentals will soon follow.

I have read that one on there. All I can say is I have made great trades using his service. I am highly involved in technical analysis and his video lessons were refreshing even for me. If someone doesn't have a clue on what they are doing, they will lose in anything they do.

I have had a great experience with it and feel it is worth my time and $. That is all I can say. If every trade was a winner I would be suspicious. They are 75-80% is not too shabby. If you set stops, pay attention and focus, this can be great. This is not me just promoting him for sake of it. I am using it and All I can say is it works for me and no reason it shouldn't work for anyone if they have the most basic idea of technical analysis and how to trade.

Like I said the videos alone pay for itself if one makes one better trade off it.

There are bashers of every business, could even be competitors. He has the busiest financial live chat room I have ever used like cobra market view , trade to win. Etc.

I know he has free access days to the chat room which I will post if any pop up soon. Had one just last Friday. There is a 500 person limit to the room and it fills up daily. He gets on the mic and answers questions live during the day in the chat room.

Not much else I can say.
