$20k in extra income? (Ad)

My friend Alex Reid just might have created my favorite strategy right now. You see, Alex has figured out how to cut-the-corner so to speak, and be one of the laziest traders possible…. While still showing his traders how to target big money. This past year, his LIVE “lazy trade” alerts have delivered impressive results—and that’s only a fraction of the opportunities he’s shared. And that’s just just a quarter of the total trade alerts he’s sent out. The true total profit potential his beta-testers have had the chance to target is far larger than $20k.

Alex recorded a special video training where he reveals exactly how much.

Why I'm telling friends to avoid gold stocks (Ad)

Back in November, gold made a tiny move of 1.6%. But according to my backtesting by using a special type of gold trade, I would have seen a 141% gain in just a week. It happened again in March. Gold nudged up 1.2%. This time? A 104% overnight gain. And in June? A 1% gold move turned into a 74% gain in two weeks. Granted, there would have been smaller wins and those that did not work out, but you see, there's a reason I'm telling all my friends to hold off from buying gold or regular gold stocks right now. There's a more lucrative way to play the gold market as we enter a new breakout period. It's all about catching what I call "Acceleration Cycles."

And if you’d like to get your hands on this, here you go, the complete breakdown.
