Do stock trading programs like Teach Me To Trade or Invest Tools really work?

No they don't

Read the Coffeehouse Investor.

no

If there was a program that taught one whaich stocks to pick and make money, do you think anyone would share it? And if everyone had it would it still work?No.They might help you aviod some rookie mistakes, but they won't help you get rich and they're usually very expensive - not worth the price.Might as well get a broker.

It's wont exactly change anything...but it will give you a general idea that might be helpful in a different way...helps you answer your own questions...and gives you second thoughts in your decision making

No. They look at past history to try to predict the future. If they were right, everyone would be rich.

If you are interested, like really interested, you would read up on how real investors invest...really smart people like Warren Buffett or Peter Lynch. "Teach Me to Trade"??? Mrrahahahaha. I wouldn't even touch that. It'll give me bad luck. Do youreself a favor and edumucate yourself the old-fashioned way by going to the library or bookstore. On that note, don't read books with titles like "How to make a million dollars in the stock market" or "How to be a Day Trader and get Rich". If you want to know, there is no sure-fire way. If there is (I really think there is) the general public does not know and someone out there who does is making crazy money. You have to remember when everyone knows, the economy will readjust itself fast and soon noone will be ahead. The market is smart. If you don't really care for investing just open an IRA and buy a Vanguard Index Fund. You will make more money than 2/3 of the people out there. Guaranteed.

I can't speak for TMTT, but I can talk to several of the other programs. Some of the programs give you a system. Some of the programs teach you to trade. Investools, like some others, teach you how to trade. It works. I know so firsthand. :-)

perhaps you can try forex. which is also excellent way for you to invest.The FOREX or Foreign Exchange market is the largest financial market in the world, with an volume of more than $1.5 trillion daily, dealing in currencies. Unlike other financial markets, the Forex market has no physical location, no central exchange. It operates through an electronic network of banks, corporations and individuals trading one currency for another.try forex from here:http://www.bernanke.cn/easy-forex/Good Luck && Wish you make a fortune!

Steven, Here is a simple way to know whether they really work. If they have a serious external company auditing their results, and they have audited their results on a long period of time (several years), then it probably works. Investools.com have audited results for a ten-day period (!) two years ago, so that's not too serious.Teach me to trade offers no audited results. You can check out my site on the link below. My results are audited for the last three years, and accessible on the website.By the way, Jeff's comment is flawed in my opinion. People share their knowledge all the time, sometimes for free, just like here; and that includes people who have been successful at investing for the best part of the last decade.Let's make money!Good luckMarc
