Someone on the Toronto site posted a message about closeouts on
trading books. Here's the response I wrote. It might help some newbie
somewhere work out in Barnes and Noble.
I've read nearly 200 hundred trading books and the only ones that
I've found worth anything are these
John Clayburg's Four Steps to Trading Success
Bill Williams New Trading Dimensions
Price Headly Big Trends in Trading
Mike McDonald Predict Market Swings with Technical Analysis
Alexander Elder Come into My Trading Room
John Bollnger Bollinger on Bollinger Bands
James Altucher Trade Like a Hedge Fund
Roy Larsen's newsletter www.metastocktips.co.nz
All of these taught me new things about trading (I've been doing this
for more than a few years.) However, the best two are Clayburg's Four
Steps and Larsen's Metastocktips and Tricks newsletter. Both of them
are huge bargins compared to what you can learn. Clayburg's indicator
system works well in any time frame, in any kind of market and with
mutual funds also.
This is a short list of the one's I've liked. I'm sure everybody has
their favorites, but none of mine appeared on the bargin book list. I
wonder why. And I probably forgot a dozen or so that could have been
on the list above.
Now this doesn't include the systems development books I've read.
That's another story. Those are much more complex books than the
trading books. I only recommend those to the truly deranged among us.
(If you are a newbie, please don't email asking me what kind of
indicator deranged is.)
I've donnated over a 100 trading books to my local library. They have
a huge trading section and you can check those out for free. And
that's exactly what they are worth.
When you go broke trading, you should then read:
William Bernstein's The Four Pillars of Investing
This is best buy and hold book ever written. You'll beat 95% of the
mutual fund managers just using his simple asset allocation formulas
and over the last 5 years you wouldn't have had more than one losing
year of probably less than 3 or 4%. That's hot in a bear market. Of
course you have to be able to read and follow directions.
Have fun!
