All About Technical Analysis: The Easy Way to Get Started by Constance Brown

Summary

This book is written with retail traders in mind who has no prior exposure to technical analysis or charting in general. Not a book teaching straightly technical methods. Also not a book teaching a complete methodology. It is a nice guided tour of trading by a professional trader who knows her stuff well. Well written with interesting tales to keep the readers stay focus. A good read but not as good as the other book written by the same author for professional traders, Technical Analysis for the Trading Professional.

Commodities for Dummies by Amine Bouchentouf

Summary

A good guide book on the basics you need to know about commodity markets. The materials give the readers a solid foundation of what they are dealing with and the factors affecting these markets. Various ways to engage in trading the commodities are also discussed so that the readers can choose from the various instruments (e.g. ETFs, futures, etc.) as oppose to the tunnel view from say a future trader’s perspective. Good introduction for both traders and long term investors who want to diversify their portfolios. Highly recommended.

The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Day Trading Like a Pro by Peter J. Sander

Summary

This book is an overview of daytrading US equities and future markets. All basic aspects on daytrading are covered with reasonable advices on risk control and expectations. The examples on the trading tools are outdated and a number of brokerages mentioned in the book no longer exist. Overall a tourist guide to daytrading – you get to know the names of the things that you are supposed to look up for but it stops there.
