Houndstooth Press The Tao of Trading: How to Build Abundant Wealth in Any Market Condition

I read ten books on technical analysis last year…. This one by far the most exciting…. A very personable pen and great information…Waiting to get my copy back from a friend because of all the notes I wrote in it….

The book is very well written, easy to understand and plenty with useful informations. This is a must have if you're starting with trading or want to start. I appreciated particularly Simon ability to go straight to the point without flying around too much. He really has an ability to make topics that are technical very simple. Recommended.

I've been trading off and on for decades (off mostly because I had a real job). Since Covid I've dug in more seriously, but I also chased every shiny object (trading book, software and seminar). Some were good. Some were not. This is one of the best. His methods are easy for anyone to learn quickly, and in my limited experience with them, they work.I would also suggest buying Nishant Pant's book "Mean Reversion Trading" which I bought and read just before this one. Both use many of the same methods; both their technical analysis and their methods of options trading. They are similar, but not redundant. They complement each other. I can't tell you how much money and time I've wasted trying to trade options in the past. Usually just long calls or puts. Knew nothing about spread trading, and how that may limit your profits, but it also limits your risks. And nothing is more important than limiting your risks. You can actually sleep at night! Imagine! You don't have to wake up the next day to see that another 40% of your option premium has evaporated.Personally, his online training materials are very overpriced in my opinion. But that's up to you. I don't think most people with some experience trading (options or not) can pick up these methods quickly and make reasonably consistent returns.

I've read many books on trading, but if I had to recommend just one book, it would be this one.Well written, concise, filled with valuable information, engaging, and inspiring!I've given this book to my wife to read and she too is really enjoying it.Simon's methods are easy to follow and I'm looking forward to backtesting them.

This book is really helping me to realise that you should invest your time in learning a skill that can make you free from investment banks and from a job you don’t like.
