Re: Best Books for Making $

I didn't read trading books I studied them. They don't make you a trader because they don't tell you how to apply. Some books say tick is important or fade the tick extremes. The question is when do you do that with which stock and for how long? Books never tell you the complete truth, they only provide some of the truth and the more you last in this business you start learning and making your own observations

The Universal Principles of Successful Trading by Brent Penfold

I love this book. Although it doesn't teach you about specific entry and exit methodology , it does teach you essential knowledge on expectancy, financial ruin , psychology and money management. I love the money management part. Definitely a must-read.

I read FOREX STRATEGIES forex ebook available here: Forex eBook, Forex Trading Book - Get it Free at AVAFX. It is still helping me to prepare trading strategies and taking right decision regarding trading.

eeer i think it was by jim cramer - may have been jim rogers. could have been jim urma blume. maybe it was steve nisson?


anyway, the good news: im selling my copy of the book. remember its out of print so you cant get it on amazon. how much will you be willing to pay for my book? remember it hash a detailed working system, back tested results as proof, the authors audited brokerage statements, and remember it still works today.

put your bids here.....

One of the best trading books I have ever read is "How to make money in commodities and lots of it" By Charles Drummond. Hands down one of the best!!

Hi khamore
Thats a brand new idea ......................coo king books for trading
When it says "add salt" , you buy
"Leave in oven for 30minutes" , you hold
"Serve with jam" , you sell
Easy
