i have said many times that Brooks copies and pastes. just because he calls a abc pull back entry, H2/L2 does not mean it is secret, any more than Ross calling the first correction in a move as Ross's Hook or Toni Hansen's Phoenix. take any damn thing and use it......but do not jump from one to the other. that is why i have decided to copy brooks .....and i have seen the difference in my trading in 3 days nothing has changed in markets in 100 years
this thread is a hook up. it is not to glorify Brooks or to say he is better than anybody else he does not glorify his methods.
From his introduction: "Everything you need to know to make a living at it [trading] is in these books, but it is up to you to spend the countless hours learning your trade." If the books can deliver on the claim, they deserve glorifying in my opinion. Even with that pesky qualification of it being up to you to spend countless hours to learn, that's a lot of sizzle. I don't recall reading any other book on trading that makes such a claim, but you can decide for yourself whether or not that constitutes glorifying. Good luck with your hook up.
it is up to you and you only that is the great thing about trading no one can take it from you or give it to you
