An advisory service is bad if the advice it provides results in poor performance. An advisory is good if the advice it provides results in superior performance. But if a client of an advisory service with a proven track record misapplies the advice, it would be no better than bad advice or trading without an advisory service.
What it comes down to is this... Know yourself when it comes to your financial knowledge and skills. If you are happy with what you know and can do, you will benefit if you pick a good advisory service. If you are unknowledgeable about the markets and unsure about your own abilities, then you may end up second guessing any advice given to you.
