I had watched pretty much everything I could find by Al Brooks a few years ago. I also read his first book. I got the other books too, but just started reading them. At the time, I thought to myself that someone who trades for so long must have it right. I really tried to trade it exactly like him. It does not work.
He posts a chart of where the entries are after each trading day. Tried to copy that too. Doesn't work. There is a lot of criticism towards him. First of all, at the end of the day, every dick can say where the perfect entry points are.
Live trading for $100 a month is not real live trading. No entry points are discussed there. you can't see where he makes his entrances. Sometimes he said that his could be a good entry... He only acts as a moderator. That's it. There is also not a single piece of evidence that he trades life at all. It was asked many times but never showed a live account.
Al Brooks is so well known on YouTube that at least 10,000 people are sure to have bought his course for $500. I value that as the absolute minimum. There are definitely many more.
If he's really a good trader, why doesn't he trade with his live account for his live trading group for $100 a month? Why is all this hidden? It would even be enough if he opens a $10000 account and trades with it. But he will never do it. I actually suspect that he is not a trader and is just putting on a show to make money selling his courses and many others suspect the same thing. If he's really that good, I would just do it like Raja Banks and many others on Youtube. They show their trades.
