if you like it hot come here to hyderabad....40 centigrade
yes and that could be the reason no one can understand his books.....there is nothing to understand
......but do not get me wrong there are no of very useful things he has taught me such as how to use the ema...i mean this guy actually trades what others call whipsaws around the ema but once you learn it it really is easy money when the market is whipsawing everyone in a trading range
Yeah, really.
That anyone thinking of buying his book should only do so from retailers that offer refunds?
I was thinking more along the lines of a disposable hanky.
Books on Amazon can be returned.

Simply, seems like a refund to me unless I misunderstood Amazon's policies. Yet, the free content on Youtube videos obviously are not refundable considering its given for free.
Regardless, what's wrong with backtesting it and then posting the results ???
I've seen backtested results posted before but the results were not the same from trader to trader.
Why ?
Its not an automated trading system. Therefore, traders will apply it differently...producing different trading results....some profitable and some not profitable.
Helpful to some...not helpful to others.

Then you do not really know his methodolgy, strategies, and tactics. Time to listen and take heed.
You don't say.
I buy books from Amazon or local bookstores (old & new)...never have I returned a book. Maybe its me but I don't treat books like I would do for something like a slow cooker, laptop, office chair, calculator, Ninja professional juicer or camping equipement.
I mention the latter above because those were items I've returned (not the books) to Amazon in the past year due to a malfunction or something broken/damage.
By the way, I collect books and I'm one of those types of people that go to book signings in many different topics. Thus, I view books very differently than anything else I purchase. Same for my other collections.
Heck, I still have my academic books from college although I'm sure those that failed the classes would say its too difficult to understand while others excel in the classes.
This all reminds me of classes at the university...the distribution of grades were between A (excel), B, C, D & F (fail). Yet, some needed to pass the class because it fullfulled a critical requirement to move on to the next level. Those students would "re-take" the class and try again.
Interesting when talking to fellow students from the same class. Some would say it was easy, some would say it was hard, some say the instructor sucked, some say the instructor was great...some really didn't have much of an opinion...
So many different opinions from those that took the exact same class.
In some ways, traders do the same. Those that fail...they move on to something else. Those that succeed...a few will take the time to defend it or praise it.
