A Beginner’s Guide to Day Trading Online (2nd edition)
Amazon Price: $10.85


Customer Review: I don’t have time to write a long review about a book, and I assume neither do you to read it. So I keep it simple and to the point:

I have read several books about day trading and this is one of the best by far. It explains in detail what to do and not to do when you attempt to trade stocks as a beginner. It will stop you from losing money and save you a lot of headaches. Make sure to read it twice!!

This book is an excellent guide to anyone new to this field, even if you don’t know the technical terms. It is not boring either… I wish it had been longer..

Read it!!


Option Volatility & Pricing: Advanced Trading Strategies and Techniques
Amazon Price: $40.95


Customer Review: Í bought this book a few years back, its awesome in all respects. I’ve tried to read it at least 3 times and cant get past about page 50.

It aint light reading for sure and I’ve been in the business for years. Its the acknolwedged bible of options trading but thats why there are so few successful and long term options traders - no one finished the book.

Its a great book but its probably easier to go to night school to learn options.


Options, Futures, and Other Derivatives with Derivagem CD (7th Edition) (Pren…
Amazon Price: $150.93


Customer Review: That’s a fantastic book. For people who wants to learn about derivatives and finantial markets it helps a lot. Because the book has a lot of maths I do not recommend it for people who does not have a good math support. Still, I think it is a good buy. If you have any doubt concerning this topic it can always give you an aid.


Hot Commodities: How Anyone Can Invest Profitably in the World’s Best Market
Amazon Price: $10.85


Customer Review: It was ok, it read like he was writing for a page count. His other books are much much better than this one. Read it if you want a view of the coming ‘bull market’ in commodities (maybe it peaked in 2008). I think he means that commodities will have more volatilty now than in past years. Perhaps a move back to volatility of the 1970s and 1980s. If that is the intent then I agree 100%.


Trading Option Greeks: How Time, Volatility, and Other Pricing Factors Drive …
