## Description

Tired of losing money? Ready to learn how the stock market really works? The stock market is the biggest opportunity machine ever created. But most people don't know how to harness it for profits. It took me over a decade to figure it out, and now I'm ready to share everything that I've learned. This is exactly the book that I wish I'd had when I was first learning how to trade. Don't be the sucker that Wall Street leaves holding the bag. In this book, you will learn: The one thing you must never do if a stock gaps to new highs The simplest ways to make money in the stock market How to tell when you are in a bull market, or a bear market How to identify which stocks are "market leaders" 10 ways to develop a winning trader's mindset The secrets to trading in a bear market How to use the RSI and Stochastics in different market environments How to run your trading like a business And much, much more! Join the thousands of smart traders who have improved their trading by reading this book. desertcart best-selling author and retired hedge fund manager, Matthew Kratter will teach you the secrets that he has used to trade profitably for the last 20 years. And if you ever get stuck, you can always reach out to him by email (provided inside of the book), and he will help you.

Review: Take the time to understand the message of this book. - This is a remarkable book, on several levels. First, Dr. Kratter lays out basic principles for trading in markets that are either trending or trading sideways. His principles are actionable, but may require several readings to be understood (they did for me). It’s not that the book isn’t clear, but rather the markets are complex. The factors that must be balanced and understood in terms of the whole are the trend of the price action in terms of individual technical indicators, movement of the market as a whole (bull or bear markets), volume of shares traded, float, etc. Dr. Kratter’s teaching method is grounded in showing you the simplest way to begin to approach a trading scenario but, without being pedantic or heavy-handed, he also inserts comments showing a deep understanding of finance and economics, but in a practical way. Beyond this, he also includes content on the psychology, even spirituality, of trading: teaching that the right kind of detachment and willingness to engage in honest self-inquiry are essential to good trading. This might explain, to some extent, why 90% of traders are unsuccessful. How many people, traders or non-traders, are willing to do this? (Look at the one-star reviews of this book, for example: for the most part, these reviewers complain that the book didn't give them a special secret which they could apply like a magic pill or incantation. People who are looking for something like this can never be satisfied.) If you first understand the rules, and then have the self-discipline to stick to them, you can harness the power of the markets, and not go into them like a greedy, grasping gambler who eventually will and must lose as a matter of mathematical certainty. The simplest possible approach to the fundamentals along with self-mastery are the secrets that the book imparts. To those people who claim that these truths aren't secret but are commonly-known, one could pose the question: how come 90% of traders fail to make money? Dr. Kratter suggests that a trader should begin her trading day with prayer and meditation, that “everyone lies to you” but that the markets will hold up a mirror reflecting your character back to you that cannot lie. The markets are neither your friend nor your enemy, Dr. Kratter explains. They’re like nature itself, which responds negatively or favorably to you in direct correlation to your preparation and skill. Mastery comes from developing expertise in the fundamentals, not from going on a treasure hunt for "secrets." I believe Dr. Kratter’s books on trading are the best available.
Review: Very Good Practical Advice - This book might not be for an experienced, successful investor/trader, but it can be very useful for someone either new to investing or only making mediocre returns. It provides practical and specific advice regarding finding good stocks and setting entry and exit points. Also, the psychological and emotional aspects of successful (and unsuccessful) trading are discussed. Those that overlook that part of trading are going to have a hard time being successful over the long term. The book is short, which is a plus. It's not filled with a lot of theory or technical jargon. All of the ideas are easy to understand and execute and each chapter gets right to the point. I found myself highlighting sections on almost every page. Whether you consider it a book or a pamphlet, it is well worth the small price.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simple, but a great value for the price.
*by M***W on October 12, 2018*

Overall i enjoyed this book. It is very short, but that means that I can re-read it periodically whenever I am feeling discouraged about a bad streak. For experienced traders there will now be a ton of new information, but for the rookie trader willing to learn, it has some pearls of wisdom. The only real critique I would have is that some of the information is a bit simplistic, such as the advice to trade to become a better person. I agree that money should not be your only motivation to trade, but I would argue that character development is only one side of the equation. Overall, a great read and a great value!
