Hello Howard,
I welcome feedback, especially from people who are strong in my
weaker areas; it keeps me honest.
When I award myself a pass for Ami ability I won't consider myself a
progammer; Tomasz is a programmer.
I appreciate I am splitting hairs; the only reason I did that was to
point out to MyTake that, IMO, focus on learning AB as compared to
learning programming is the way to go for traders, unless of course
they are lucky enough to be a programmer before they start.
Thanks for the book.
It's a huge effort to write and publish like that.
I just did a few pages of home made PDF for the group files and I
couldn't believe the energy it consumed.
It was like a vortex.
I couldn't agree more with your comments that you are sick of buying
trading books to find them full of subjective material etc.
One of your books will find:
"a home among the gum trees,
with lots of plum trees,
a sheep or two and a kangaroo".
Any chance of doing something about a lower postal rate for a slower
delivery?
Via Amazon I usually take the snail mail for around USD$10-15 per
book.
The $20-25 postage adds too much onto the book price.
