I have my 2 cents on signal groups
The people distributing them often get them from a source. I can assure you: Successful traders don't spend their time shilling signals - They're trading, and doing just fine...they don't need or want to spill their trades. People shilling signals often times make more money selling signals, than actual trading. Maybe the signals are ok, but one thing is for sure ...often times you're buying from people who ain't that good in reality themselves, which is troubling
Take Instagram ...18 year old "millionaires", trading Forex. Rented cars, chartered planes. Selling signals, earning referral commissions ...its a game. People get sucked in, but not what it seems, behind the curtain
