Upcoming Month to Remember (by Xerxes)

Gold for Only Pennies

By -

For the first time in Slope’s nearly 18 year history, I’m finally able to do something I’ve always wanted to do, which is to give people a free trial of the site. Well, not exactly free. I’ve found in my experience that people who go for $0.00 stuff aren’t exactly great customers, but after a lot of technical wrangling, I’ve created a way to give people a super cheap (like 99 cents cheap) way to try the site. To take advantage of it, click here. It’ll get you all the privileges of the Gold membership for less than a buck. If that’s too much of a risk for you, I seriously have no idea what you think you’re doing in the world of self-directed trading. Anyhoo……….
