Also, I forgot to post that the webinars went offline this morning during the server problem, and they were offline most of the day because it wasn't reported to me until a couple of hours ago. Has been fixed now, but they (and entire site) will …
All the books except for one have been mailed on Friday. The one straggler will be mailed on Monday or Tuesday. Winners should receive the books in about 7-10 days.
I do not expect you will receive a response of any substance.
A few years ago now this topic got quite a bit of traction on FIO. So much so that Al was asked outright prior to his webinar on FIO if he traded live.
I can't recall the exact question or response, but he did respond although the refusal to provide any proof of his trading only stoked the fire of the doubters.
To be honest I don't care anymore. I used to because I didn't feel it was right for FIO to promote Al when he provided zero evidence that he actually traded. However, age has probably tempered my feelings about it all.
Al has staunch supporters on here and an equal number of critics.
Somewhere out there in the ether of the interwebs (not FIO) was a post on another forum by a trader who investigated Al in depth. They got very deep and IMO a little personal, posting his home address and other personal stuff about his daughter's school of education etc. The most important part was in respect to Al's trading career. I will not comment further as it is not my place to do so nor could I verify the claims.
The bottom line is, if you think his teachings have value and help you then it is probably irrelevant if he trades or not. If you need confirmation if he trades live and you want proof before you learn his method, then I suspect you will be waiting a long time.

I absolutely do not want to fan the flames of this any more, which certainly has gotten enough fanning and enough flaming too. Like @JonnyBoy, I don't much care.
The fact is that no one knows if anyone trades, really. You can ask for statements, but in this electronic age, how hard is it to fake any kind of document, especially something that is just an email?
The point that matters is whether you learn something and you apply it and you make money or not. The key word in that sentence is "you," not "he."
If someone is looking for a guru, and will sit at the guru's feet and do everything the guru says, but wants proof of his powers first, well, that person is looking for the wrong thing. Suppose you got the proof. Should you sit at his feet? Nope.
If you read somebody's book or watch his video and put it to use profitably, that's what you should be looking for. If you can't use it, then pass on.
