see brooks tells it how it really is and no one likes it .
if you want to know what the market is then Brooks is it.
but if want to make money BROOKS is not necessary.
all you need to see the general direction of the market and swing it. Basically that is it.
In the market there is only channels. narrow and wide channels. there are moves inside the channels and a narrow channel, where the whole channel has direction, is a trend.
channels are between trend lines and channel lines and they need not be horizontal.
you have to draw channels and triangles and broadening patterns the whole thing is where you can get literally lost.
draw lines and then learn.
to answer your question i do not have clue. But Brooks is fun.
you seem to have an open mind and i think you are young that combination is rare and you may enjoy Brooks . in trading you have to enjoy the environment and do not think you have to become rich.
just earn your living and enjoy the freedom that trading gives. No one interferes with trading no boss no government you are God in your own Heaven
