What Works in Trading?

I have an e-mail address that I use for ‘free’ offers. It’s a good way of keeping track of what is going on in the trading industry. I received the attached pdf from one of the subscriptions.

It’s well written, contains much truth and worth a read. I found parts very entertaining.

Having said that,  I want to make it clear I am not supporting James De Wet’s sites or products. I am conscious that many readers tend to accept what I say on faith. For this reason when I mention a book, product or service, I take great pains to ascertain as carefully as possible, the credentials of the author.

Mr De Wet  has an ambigous reputation - see links below. I am endorsing some of the content in the PDF not his products.

Note comments by Terry and Patrick (bottom of thread) that says De Wet has been upfront about his past mistakes.

One of the unfavorable reviews refers to a CFTC complaint. Below are links summarizing the complaint.
