Mastering the Trade

I think this book was very helpful, it covered different plans, setups, it stresses good money and risk management techniques. I found there could be something of use either from a novice to an experienced person point of view. John Carter puts down some nice example views, and explains them...

No Quality

First of all, i should point out that no one should expect someone to release "proven techniques for profiting" about the markets. The title is just for marketing purposes, and none of the trading methodologies in the book are by no means consistently profitable techniques. However, some chapters...

A really good reference book

I enjoyed the book a lot and learned a ton. I use the 8/21 ema crosses in my own trading and found it really helpful to take his suggestions and keep it simple. I reference back to this book often when I start swaying away from my plan. I get his free newsletter every pre-trading day evening...

comprehensive overview of trading

Excellent book - in my opinion, should be on every beginner to intermediate trader's list of 'must-reads'. Is comprehensive because it addresses assessing market internals, favorite trade setups, creating a trading plan, and trader psychology (includes a personality test), all of which is a...

Techniques mentioned in this book are not backtested

As a systematic trader, I don't judge the book by how most people have been reviewing it, I judge by how the ideas mentioned in the book have been proving themselves in real market. It is in this sense that I found the book very shallow, skin-deep. Yes, the author talked about a dozen of trading...
