Customer Reviews

Outstanding book, very readable, outstanding insight.

I have read many, many Day Trading books in search of the Holy Grail. Most books give you the same fundamentals (blah, blah, blah). This book gave me more "hands on" techniques that I am using successfully. It is the most "real world" book I have read and not overloaded with theoretical ideas and technicals. To each his own but it is my favorite....

Pure experience content

Any reader could see the difference and the knowledge that comes from two very experienced and very proffessional traders who are willing to expose to the public what they have gained with time. 99% of the content is useful and even traders should have this book and read it from time to time in order to keep themselves in track. I will read this book again and again, because I believe that I will gain more every time I am reading it. I thank Fernando and William as a trader for their contribution in our Trading Family.

Fine Work

The authors engage in an impressive discussion of trading psychology in realistic market scenarios and just the right amount of detail. Although the reader must have some market experience at least, it is nevertheless worthy of 5 stars even for a novice. This is without a doubt one of the finest day trading books I have read.

At last! A Real Day Trading Book!

I've read many day trading books and this is by far the best one. The Level II strategies are awesome and really work! I'm a professional day trader in New York and I've cut months off of my learning curve from studying this book. Avoid the fluff that's currently out there and get this book if you're interested in being a serious day trader. I only wish the authors spent a chapter discussing the importance of position sizing (as a percentage of trading capital) and a more indepth discussion of risk parameters for stocks with tight and wide spreads and varying degrees of momentum. All in all, a great book!!

I have personally watched the authors make money everyday

and I could not wait for their book. I was not disappointed: they are comprehensive in their coverage of the subject matter and detailed enough to actually help my trading! This is a compilation of the techniques that I see them use everyday, and I am shocked at the consistent money making skills of these guys - actual real-life TRADERS! I beg to differ from the previous poster who accuses this book as an attempt to capitalize on the day trading craze. This is hard to believe considering the amount of money these guys make everyday from trading the markets. Reading the book is a peek into the minds of these incredible traders and I am priveledged to actually see the results of theirs skills, and have the confidence to know that what I am reading in their book is the real thing. It has already helped my own trading tremendously.This is among the "MUST READs" in the topic.
