Twitter | The Holy Grail Trading Indicator?

Twitter - The New Holy Grail Of Trading?
Twitter has indeed become the defacto medium for disseminating information of all types. From news to inspirational quotes, from top secret government messages to revolutionary messages that topple top secret governments. Is it a toy, a weapon, or a business tool? That's the beauty of the Twitter...
It's all of the above and even more - in 140 characters or less.
However, we must keep it in proper perspective. At the most basic level it is nothing more than a pipeline for information. Granted, a pipeline powerful enough to push information from the utterly mundane to mission critical in front of thousands even millions of eyeballs in the blink of a eye(ball).
When Guttenberg created moveable type and our forefathers framed the Constitution, Freedom of the Press was nothing more than a noble idea. Very few people could afford a printing press in those days and it wasn't so very long ago, that even our school teachers were hand cranking out our homework assignments with purple fingers on a "state of the art" contraption called the Mimeograph Machine.
Twitter was created in March 2006 by Jack Dorsey and launched July the same year. The service has rapidly gained worldwide popularity, with over 500 million active users as of 2012, generating over 340 million tweets daily and handling over 1.6 billion search queries per day. That's a whole lot of tweeting going on.

Since it was all very new and I saw no real purpose in it or a future for it... this was my infamous first tweet -

Little did I imagine that 5 years and 2,752 Tweets later I would actually be using this odd little thing to help traders around the world earn a living. Honestly, I thought it was silly and would never catch on.
Fast forward 5 years and I think I finally get it. Keep in mind, the power of the Twitter is still only as valuable as the information Tweeted. For those who follow our public tweets, you see ideas, links, breaking news, thought provoking articles, and yes, you even see Emini Futures Trades. You don't see everything that goes out to our CFRN Partners, but I must say we do give away quite a bit.
Here's the conundrum, having the information and knowing how to trade it, are two different things. As different as Bush and Obama, Night and Day, Peace and War. So why do we give it away? Because some of you are clever enough to use it anyway, and it also serves as a gentle invitation to the rest of the trading world to APPLY for our Free Trial and consider becoming a CFRN Partner.
On The Record
The other beauty of the Twitter is the Public Time Stamp. You can't fake it, alter it, or use it to blow smoke up your neighbor's chimney. It serves as an actual representation of what we believed to be the next best possible trade. Then an independent third party waltzes in, time stamps it and archives it for all the world to see. You never have to wonder if you're looking at something that's been photo-shop'd and slapped on a website simply to impress you. It's the real deal...
Is Our Twitter Feed A Holy Grail Emini Indicator?
No! But thanks for asking. No one gets it right all the time. We simply put it out there for you to see and evaluate. We believe that if you see enough consistency in what we give away, perhaps you'll want to come behind the curtain and learn what we teach our CFRN Partners. Once you become a Partner, you'll be able to see the exact same trades that we do without even opening the Twitter.

You may already be short the ESU2 based on our previous Tweet. If not, consider being short below 1340 for potential test of 1333 or better.

Did I Cherry Pick trades over the past month? Yes I did. I purposely left out 1 Tweet that didn't do as well as we had hoped. Why did I do that? To encourage you to go dig around and find it. Why? Because if you are not willing to put forth at least that much effort, your chance of succeeding as a trader is somewhere between slim and none.
We're required by law to tell you that trading is risky and you can lose all your money. I like to go a step fiurther by saying -
Trading's Not Easy!
But It Can Be Simple...
