Lol. Yeah I unblocked you. Welcome back to the family. But you did sneak past the Ignore/Block feature momentarily. Something amiss with the Matrix here.
I will try to stay out of any debate, but I can't help comment that from what I know, there seems to be no proof that the Al Brooks methodology is making anyone serious money. Be that Al Brooks himself or his students. If Al Brooks himself was making good money day trading ES it would be a very smart move to post some broker statements or similar showing his performance. It would no doubt attract even more customers. Hell, one could even argue that anyone with a good methodology day trading ES would focus on day trading ES and not running an educational business. Jim Simons on the other hand is the master mind behind arguably one of the best funds in history with a proven track record. A brilliant guy. As far as I remember he actually did make money trading discretionary/semi-discretionary prior to going full algorithmic (which was a process that wasn't done in one day). The book on Simons is a great read. That a book is enthralling doesn't mean it will help you in live trading (which is where the rubber meets the road), but I'm sure there's some useful teachings there as it's been endorsed by quite a few here.
