It all depends on learning style and the kinds of studying tactics you employ. However, the videos are a great way to start learning Al's approach. When my friends come and ask me to teach them how to be a daytrader, i point them to Al's videos and tell them to come back after they have watched it 3 times. but it will be focused on techniques for scalping ES only. mack gives so much of his stuff away free, that you could really get away with getting hundreds of hours of content without paying a nickle. I am a big fan of macks approach to price action, and it is 100% based on Al's approach. Mack uses a very specific scalping approach on es, whereas half of the charts Al shows are daily or weekly charts, not 5min. In fact, i ripped the videos to MP3, and listen to them like a podcast/audiobook. There is no prework that needs to be done. Al recommends (and i strongly agree) that the videos are much better than the books. Al's books are very difficult, and is not recommended, even by him lol. I have al's books and videos and have watched 100s of mack's pat videos. It's still not overwhelming, because the modules are short enough so that there are many breaks. Speeding up to x1.3 made it much easier for me to follow the material. The speed adjustment was a godsend! Maybe it's not a very nice thing to say but Al's voice tends to put me to sleep, even though I like his content and I have trouble not wandering off in my head when I have grasped a concept and the speaker is still explaining it, making me miss the next points the speaker makes. I too had to tinker with the playback speed.
no offence if you are reading Al, I genuinely like your stuff and approach and kudos for not being greedy with the price.
There is some really good stuff in his material I just cant stay awake even if I am primed with a triple espresso lol. I can imagine him working in his previous career as an eye surgeon, if I was going to choose someone to operate on my eye it would be someone methodical, focussed and obsessed with details just the way Al clearly is. I would love to meet Al, he sounds very methodical and focussed. I like Al's material but I find his voice hypnotic to the point where I find myself literally drifting off whilst listening. Digging up an old post here but I also had a chuckle when you wrote about your 1.7 speed adjustment.
