The Three Skills of Top Trading looks interesting.
Anyone read Way of the Turtle yet? That and Taleb's Black Swan are next on my list.
The last new trader book i got was Evidence-Based Technical Analysis. I didn't even finish it, it seemed more a book about how "TA is nonsense" than what the title seems to suggest. Has some interesting primers on stats but that was about it.

I wasnt too pleased with the reviews on Way of the Turtle.

I recently picked up Brett Steenbargers new book, Enhancing Trader Performance and I absolutely recommend it to all traders.

There's a new book that is about to be published soon in US, "36 strategies for trading". I think it's similar to Art of War for traders but focus on market behavior and strategies to take different behaviors and conditions. I got a summary from a forum in Aussie and some in Amazon. I'm considering getting it unless someone already has a copy and can give us a review, much appreciated.

Soul, I read "Way of Turtle", and to me it was an excellent book on Trend-following. It provides very realistic view on why Trend-following is hard to do and need a lot $$$$ to trade it right.

It is not as useful for intraday trader. But it did offer his view on different markets that is very useful to me.

Can you tell me what is the part that you do not like?

PS: I like it personally, because I have spend mucho $$$$ from turtleXXXXX.com and end up have to toss it away.(look at how many $ sign, you can kinda guess the minimium price that i spend) Because it left out a few very important info until I find out that you need at least 200K to trade it succsessfully. The reason being that the account have to be able to withstand up to 40% draw down, and still have enough money to do position size up when the good signal comes in. Small account just can not do that. I hope this book will put those scammers out of business.

Hi weiwei,

Sorry.. I should of made it more clear. I have never read The Way of the Turtle. I was about to purchase it on Amazon but saw some negative review on it.

Im a little out of date with trading books. Havent been able to read as much as before lately. If anyone has a good recommendation please let me know. Thanks

explained and wrote up as c++ for free
