The original course may be available through SMI, but Wyckoff's original course is not the same as the SMI course which, as you point out, "adds its own interpretations, ideas, adds things, deletes things, etc". [/url].
Unit 2 encompasses the original Wyckoff Course and is fundementally the same as the original, mostly reformatting and some clarifying - hardly a reinterpration. The Course was later expanded mainly by the excellent work of Bob Evans. The additional material was kept separate and is found in Unit 3. The other three units include an introduction & overview of the method (Unit 1), practice trading methods (Unit 4) and a "final exam" (Unit 5). There is much valuable material that supplements the course also available from Wyckoff/SMI.

The comment: "Everyone else adds their own interpretations interpretations, ideas, adds things, deletes things, etc" refers to forum threads, blogs, websites, books, software and the like regarding Wyckoff trading. Each of these is neccessarilly a reinterpretation (often quite poor and woefully misinformed, though a few good) of what Wyckoff/SMI has been studying and refining for over 100 years. So again, why not go to the source?
