"Al has a cumulative gain in just over 9 mths in excess of 170%"

Nice going but I think you need to look at an overall portfolio to calculate true gains unless Al was suggesting people put 100% of their portfolio into each trade.

Perhaps if you use 1% of an investment portfolio for each trade then multiply that by 170% then add in the money market return the portfolio generated waiting for the next trade? Some people trade with 2% and some far less than 1% on each trade.

See my point? This makes the gains more in line with reality which is still very good compared to an investment portfolio fully in the S&P500 or Nasdaq, or whatever benchmark you pick ahead of time.

Why not start an "Al Portfolio"? The guy on NBR's website has an investment portfolio like that which is "live" and does quite well. It would be interesting to see if Al's results beat him. I am really interested to see if Al catches the trend change, if it comes or if it already came.
