Actually I have this book, haven't read yet. lol
I have not read the book written by this blow-up option seller. I think even if a person blows up, that does not mean he does not write well or does not teach well. I know of failed traders/investors switching career to training traders/investors instead of actually trading/investing. Whitney Tilson, the value investor, is one of them.

Really? LOL Will give you a whole new perspective now when you read it.
Oh he writes well but he just doesn't practice what he teaches.
So, is it fair to say his book does provide value to the reader? If James Cordier had followed his own advice in the book, he would not have blow up?
I have not read his book. His blow-up catches my attention.
Very possibly. He even recommended doing vertical spreads and iron condors in his advertising brochures. LOL So I am sure he would've mentioned something like them in his book. But looking at what he did?... I never had his book as I don't believe in those "guide" books let alone "complete guide" books LOL but would be interesting to see what he actually writes in his book seeing what happened.
It's hard to find a book and after reading it and said to oneself... ah.. ha... I got it now.
Take for example, Edwin Lefevre's book, an inexperience trader would find it difficult to understand. Trading is a journey and reading a few books just wouldn't do it. It's a difficult journey(my personal experience) and it takes a lot of perseverance. Never say this ought to be it.. this is it.
But the market never cares what one or many think.

But the market never cares what one or many think.I didn't understand all of them either, but there is also a lot of writing and pictures some of which contains good fundamental ideas.This one? I bought it but didn't read one page, it has lots of math formulas that I don't understand, if I remember correctly.
