Market and Forex related book reviews:


For most of us I think trading becomes an obsession that gradually (or not so gradually) begins to eclipse many of our other interests. I can at least say that about myself and part of that means reading many books on the subject. I will be adding a number of reviews of some of the books ive read so that you can easier decide which books are next up on your list.


Recommended Books:

 

Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets by John J. Murphy

A Comprehensive Guide to Trading Methods and Applications


Trading in the Zone

If your looking for a no nonsense reference book to prop up beside your trade station you should check out Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets by John J. Murphy. This book contains information on many topics basic to advanced.

Trading in the Zone by Mark Douglas

Master the Market with Confidence, Discipline and a Winning Attitude


Trading in the Zone

As far as recommendations go, I would confidently state that most traders who read Mark Douglas's book Trading in the Zone would place it in their top ten. A book on the psychology of trading, if your new at Forex you should read this book before you start trading with real money. If you've been trading already, you'll kick yourself for not reading it sooner.

The Way of the Warrior-Trader by Richard D. McCall

The Financial Risk-Taker's Guide to Samurai Courage, Confidence and Discipline



The Way of the Warrior-Trader

This book really talked to me. Another highly recommended book that underscores that trading is essentially an art form that needs to be perfected. The Way of the Warrior-Trader is another book on the psychology of trading, Richard D. McCall teaches us that applying the Samurai belief system to trading is a wonderful way to master our own psychology when striving to trade with perfection as the Samurai did with combat.

 

The Logical Trader- by Mark B. Fisher

Applying a Method to the Madness


The Way of the Warrior-Trader

Whether you already have a trading system or not, this book is a must read. The Logical Trader details a system that stands on its own or can be easily adapted to add great value to what your doing now. If your new to trading this book will completely transform how you think about the market and I say with no hesitation that you will learn alot.
