This is commonly done to entice new customers - not an unusual practice in business at all.

    one thing you have to

    one thing you have to realize, BPT does not spend a dime on advertising.  We don't spend thousands of dollars a month on Google Adword campaigns and other promotions.  I can show  you websites (who I've talked with) that will spend 20 - 50K in a month at times on a promotion.  We do that in order to get some traffic because we don't pay for traffic like most sites

    We do not do this so that we can keep membership costs low.  BPT has mainly grown by word of mouth (members telling friends/family), and not from paid website promotions.  

    But the cost of BPT

    But the cost of BPT is comparable to other financial website; even slightly on the high end.

    Not for what Matt & Steve do on a daily basis....

    I don't know anything comparable; if you do, let us know  Wink

    I always thought very highly

    I always thought very highly of BPT for being so generous to non-subscribers, and it was the freebies that convinced me to subscribe. Matt and Steve aren't sharing any "secret winning stocks", they are sharing their knowledge on how to read the charts - you still need to use your brain to execute a good trade and I doubt the number of people reading is enough influence the most liquid stocks.

    I actually came to BPT

    I actually came to BPT 2-3 yrs ago because a friend of mine sent me one of Matt and Steve's free newsletters.....without them doing that I would've never landed here....

    one of the best services

    Oh my goodness,  It sure has paid my subscription price over and over.  I do have to listen and pay attention which is not too good.  When I pay attention to newsletter i do well..
