Long-Term Secrets to Short-Term Trading (Wiley Trading Book 499) 2nd Edition, Kindle Edition

I have read and/or watched much trading educational material. This book should have been the first one I read, and chapter three should have been chapter one. Read chapter three first, then read it over again until it becomes ingrained in your brain like muscle memory is to an athlete. If after understanding this chapter you are unsure if you are interested in this game of trading, and remember, for every winner there is a loser, find another way to make money. This book is chock full of need to know information, strategies and opinions, but wrap your mind around chapter three before you spend the time learning the material. Just as a teaser, the title of chapter three is “The Real Secret of Short Term Trading.”

I read the whole book. If you learn one thing it was worth it.

If you interested in the data and the process. This will give you both for reasonable perspective on trading.

I have read over 50 trading books, this is not much different than any of them. There is some great information in here and it is great for people learning markets. It is a quality book, and I honestly think trading for the average retail trader is not the same as it was 30 years ago and some of the concepts in this book are outdated. Larry Williams is a legend. His whole life is an amazing story. It blew my mind when i found out that his daughter michelle is actually the famous actress and won the robbins cup as a teenager. Its just mind blowing. Worth a read if you are generally interested in getting into markets. If you already trade successfully and have your own system probably not worth it.

This book helps put front and center concepts, such as the importance of back testing and identifies certain input variables that in themselves lead to different outcomes. Final outcomes to profit, loss, drawdowns, turnover etc. Its not so much that i didn't already know about these variables or personally will be using this kind of complicated analysis to enter, exit and hold positions, but the ideas in themselves gained a sense of importance simply from being included in the book. Mr. Williams' writing about the concepts creates, at least for me, a motivating factor to think about their existence and application. Refer to the table of contents to see which concepts. I am half way done on the book, maybe i write a follow up review when i am done. But for now, so far so good. Its an expensive book but i would buy it again. Make sure to choose the digital edition so you can highlight sections and take notes while you read. I hope this review is helpful.

No dislikes. Mr. Williams writes truthfully relating to trade results that are 90% at odds with those over the top tv advertising "promises." I've traded close to a decade - have read many books and attended many seminars - and Williams introduces a new - and straight forward - trading pattern early on in the book. This is not a quick read; for me it is a read and re-read. Don't buy this book if you are just getting started. WELL WORTH THE COST!

Perdí un dinero tratando de buscar ganancias con lo que un mentor me enseñó. Página tras pàgina de este libro entendí por qué había perdido en los trades que hice. La tarea es volver a leer el resumen que hice y aplicarlo

Of all the trading books I have read over the many years, this one is the best.It's practical and chokful of good ideas. Trend analysis, money management. TDW, TDM and various setups.It tells the wanna be speculator just how hard this game is! and also the rewards that await for the person who ploughs through anyway.

Larry knows. Not only he knows but he did it. Champion trader, full of common sense, no voodoo crap, everything he writes is valuable.

Enseñanzas de uno de los mejores. Lectura recomendada para todo aquel que quiere invertir con éxito, estrategias de trading, consejos de psicotrading.Volveré a leerlo.

Ho comprato questo libro per le alte raccomandazioni e devo dire che e il top, ci sono tante strategie che bisogna comprenderli bene ( anche perché libro e in inglese) ma una volta imparate si comincia essere profittevoli. Per me Larry Williams e diventano come un mentore.

Top !!

Larry Williams is a near legend in trading circles.His explanations and data driven trading set ups are easy to follow and the one that resonated most with me is now a key part of my trading strategy. It continues to consistently deliver profitable trades and, as that is what I bought the book to learn, it gets 5 stars without question.
