Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Not For Beginners
Its a good book and there is an audiobook version which is also good BUT,,,this book talks about things like Market maker manipulation and other topics that are beyond beginning. I didnt appreciate this book till after about 8 months of trading and studying. A good book to start would be Toni Turners books or Trading for a Living by Elder.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good start up books
The book is very fundamental but I need this anyway. This book provides clarifications on the basic of trading. You will find terminologies quickly that you will need for trading which is very helpful to me. Don't expect this book to show you how to make money but to understand how trading works.


Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not up to the Dummies standard
I had hoped that, since this book discusses both fundamental and technical analysis, it would be a balanced blend of the two. However, it is almost entirely a technical analysis book, that acknowledges the existence of fundamentals and not much else.

The fact that the book doesn't match my investment style isn't enough on its own to earn a two-star rating from me. Unfortunately, it is also poorly written, and poorly edited. It is wordy, jargony, confusing, vague, and occasionally ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent foundation for the beginning trader
Trading for Dummies is an excellent book for anyone interested in starting to trade stocks. This book really kept me wanting to read on and on because every section was filled with plenty of information. The way the chapters are arranged were very good in that you don't have to be going back and forth to understand the whole concept. One thing I noticed was that this book is for someone who wants to be a position trader as opposed to a day trader, which is good because that is what I want to do. ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Must read for those who want to make money
Great book. Covers all the bases, including fundamental and technicals. I have read a few of the other Dummies books on investing and all were well written. This book is for those who want to make money, not just buy and hold and hope for the best. I learned more about trading/investing with the Dummies series than 4 years of college majoring in finance. And yes, I have made money.
