In never ceases to amaze me why you would want to take a negative view on people sharing their trading experiences.
Whilst I don't necessarily agree with all aspects of every blog then I use it as a learning tool, and take their experiences and use it in a positive way.
Also people looking for constant videos can only learn so much by it. If I showed you a 3hour video of Michael Phelps swimming and you have only ever swam a maximum of 200meters why would you expect to improve dramatically on your next venture to the pool? Bottom line is that you will have to get constantly wet and work hard at it to achieve meaningful results.
For pre-event (race) trading then it is the market where you focus must lie. What is it doing? what do you expect to happen? (in the next 30, 60, 180 & 300 seconds), which selection you will trade and why? On what side of the book will you go? What will you do if the move doesn't happen/go against you? When will you exit (upside or downside). The most successful traders have a plan before they enter a trade and are literally making many decisions before, during and after a trade. No video I know will give you all of this, except perhaps one you have recorded yourself and used as self analysis.
Video's that are good but will still never replace your own experiences can be found here (betangel TV), Jimmakos.com and Adapt and Survive (blog).
For in-play markets what can a video teach you unless you are displaying trading with the event itself. To be successful in-play you must have an edge and be able to read the event and read the likely market reactions to the action occurring in an event. Again as pre-race trading you will need a strategy and the decision making process is constant.
So be pleased that the guys are taking time out to share their experiences and use it as a driver for you to be more profitable in your trading.
If you want to excel you will need to examine and criticise yourself and not others. The following is winning behaviour and comes directly from the book “Think like a Winner – Yehuda Shinar” -and for those ‘realists’ and ‘pessimists’ I have no link to the author, publisher, etc.

Got that off my chest
so Psycoff don't let the small minded minority put you off and good luck.
