Book Description
The financial markets have changed considerably since "A Beginner's Guide to Short-Term Trading" was first published in January 2002. The dot.com implosion, a two-year bear market, wars in the Middle East, a burgeoning demand for commodities, and a softening real estate market have all contributed to a tumultuous stock market.The face and operating procedures of the markets have also changed. In 2001, decimalisation altered the time-honoured pricing of stocks in fractions, and gave way to quotations now delivered in one-cent increments. In addition, exciting new trading products have entered the markets. These include the E-minis (mini-versions of stock index futures contracts), and a host of Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) that offer baskets of stocks (industry groups or country-specific) traded as a single instrument."A Beginner's Guide to Short-Term Trading, 2nd Edition" will include updates on all the current issues affecting the market.
From the Author
Hi Everyone! "A Beginner's Guide to Short-term Trading" is written to those of you who want to profit by grabbing the "sweet spots" out of a stock's uptrend or downtrend. The book explains two styles of trading: swing trading and position trading. When you place a swing trade, you buy a stock with the intent of taking gains in 2 - 5 days. When you enter a position trade, you typically buy a stock breaking out of a base into an uptrend. You hold that position as long as the stock rises in that uptrend, approximately 3 - 6 weeks.
If you have a have full-time job, yet want to participate in the stock market, short-term trading may appeal to you. And, if you're a traditional buy-and-hold investor, the knowledge you find in this book will help you keep your profits, instead of gaining them . . . and then giving them back.
I wrote "A Beginner's Guide to Short-Term Trading" in the same lighthearted, reader-friendly style as my previous book, "A Beginner's Guide to Day Trading Online." Although the material is comprehensive and substantial, I firmly believe that humor, woven into a serious subject like the stock market, promotes the learning process. I also continued the "Center Points," as I've received a lot of positive feedback from people who enjoyed them in my last book.
"A Beginner's Guide to Short-Term Trading," is designed to teach you skills and strategies needed to enter the stock market on a relatively short-term basis, safely and successfully. Please educate yourself thoroughly before you jump into the market, just as you would do with any worthwhile endeavor.
My best wishes are with you, and keep those trades green! Toni Turner --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

BUY IT!,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Beginner's Guide to Short-Term Trading (Paperback)
This book is packed with valuable, usable information from oscillators to use of candlestick patterns and lots more. The writing style is simple yet effective, better than most books that cost many times more. BUT IT!
5.0 out of 5 stars
Read it Twice!,
This review is from: A Beginner's Guide to Short Term Trading: Maximize Your Profits in 3 Days to 3 Weeks (Paperback)
Yes, read it twice. To begin with, read chapter 3. Then go back and read it twice. Toni Turner does an outstanding job of explaining how to manage yourself as you invest in the stock market. This book targets short term traders - that is, those persons interested in investments that will be on the books for weeks to months or longer. The main messages for me in the book were: always use stop loss orders to limit your risk; emotion has no place in investment decisions - park it at the door; learn to read the charts, and; protect your capital. In writing this review I am somewhat at a disadvantage as I have loaned my copy out to my best friend who is considering becoming a self directed investor. I said, "Hold on, before you make a single investment, read this book". Yes, I told him to read it twice.I have carefully watched our retirement fund investments for years. I have been a self directed investor since early 2008. I have an investment blog site open to a circle of friends who are concerned about their investments. I watch and am well informed about the market. My investment strategies improved significantly as a direct result of reading this book

This review is from: A Beginner's Guide to Short Term Trading: Maximize Your Profits in 3 Days to 3 Weeks (Paperback)
This is an excellent book to understand how to read charts and trade in the market. Her writing style is easy to understand. Lots of chart examples and scenarios to review. She even talks a little bit about the psychology of trading and how to keep a positive frame of mind.I would highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to get a competetive edge over 99% of all other market participants. I fine read before jumping in the markets head-first.
