Customer Reviews

One of my favorites

I've read literally hundreds of books on trading and was surprised to see the negative reviews of this one...which is one of my favorites. It does say a little about a lot of topics..and this is a strong point, not a weakness...one can then go on to expand knowledge of the topics of special interest in full length books on each. The section on trading psychology is one of the best I've ever read...

Excellent book

Robert Rotella captures the essence of trading psychology. This book is a must read for all investors - regardless of timeframe, experience, or markets traded. I rank it in the top five trading books I've ever read.

Like getting a university degree in financial engineering

This book touches all aspects of investing. The author describes the different markets; the stock market, natural resources, foods, interest rates, options, etc. The author describes technical as well as fundamental analysis and helps you develop the mindset which is necessary to be a successful trader. After reading this book, you'll feel like you've earned a university degree in financial engineering. I expected the price of this book to be a lot higher.

A good book for those who want to study all market aspects

The book with information about every element of market, but there is not too much information about specific of trading. It is a common instrument for learning of trading. You must read it if you look for a complex knowlege about exchanges and markets at all.
