BWILC compiles the numerous principles that make up what I see as the right approach to trading. My interest in Forex started about a year ago when a friend who does it for a living (successfully) gave me a very "down to earth", realistic description of what it was about. Ironicaly, he had never heard of BWILC. What he explained to me was based on a real life experience.
When looking for sources of education, I ran across BWILC which appeared to subscribe to the same concepts that my friend described as the responsible way to trade. I was amazed that after hours, days and weeks of research, I found no other product that came close. Everything else resembled a "get rich quick" scheme.
Those looking for the "magic recipe" will not find it here. In fact there is no such thing. If you are looking for the "magic recipe" I urge you to read BWILC and take the blindfold off. One of the things I liked about the book is that it leaves room for one to customize the strategy to one's lifestyle and personality.
BWILC contains the right concepts that make the foundation of a successful trading approach. I read it a second time (about 6 months after my purchase) and grasped concepts which somehow did not sink in the first time around.
I am currently enrolled in Dirk's mentoring programme, and as I learn and reinforce the concepts and build my future trading career one step at a time, I value the solid foundation I got by reading BWILC.
