Publisher's summary

Very few careers can offer you the freedom, flexibility, and income that day trading does. As a day trader, you can live and work anywhere in the world. You can decide when to work and when not to work. You only answer to yourself. That is the life of the successful day trader. Many people aspire to it, but very few succeed.

In the audiobook, I describe the fundamentals of day trading, explain how day trading is different from other styles of trading and investment, and elaborate on important trading strategies that many traders use every day. I've kept the audiobook short so you can actually finish listening to it, and not get bored by the middle.

For beginner traders, this audiobook gives you an understanding of where to start, how to start, what to expect from day trading, and how to develop your strategy. Simply listening to this audiobook, however, will not make you a profitable trader. Profit in trading does not come with listening to an audiobook or two, or browsing online. It comes with practice, the right tools, software, and appropriate ongoing education.

Intermediate traders may benefit from the audiobook's extensive overview of some of the classic strategies that the majority of retail traders regularly use with proven success. If you think you are beyond the stage of a novice trader, then you may want to jump ahead and start listening to Chapter 7 for an overview of the most important day trading strategies:

ABCD Pattern Trading Bull Flag Momentum Trading Top Reversal Trading Bottom Reversal Trading Moving Average Trend Trading VWAP Trading Support and Resistance Trading

For each strategy, I explain:

How to find the Stock in Play for trade What indicators I am using on my charts When I enter the trade When I exit the trade (profit taking) What is my stop loss

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Excellent place to start out with Day Trading

I am just getting started with Day Trading and I found this book to be honest, practical and interesting. I feel like this book provides a good realistic assessment of the reality of being a day trader. No get rich quick ideas. Just explanations of what would be required to enter into this career if one is truly interested. The technical information is presented in a clear manner, but does require paying close attention.

If you have an interest in Day Trading I think this book is a great place to start. Thanks to the author for his efforts.

Excellent book for the novice

However, I’m not sure as a beginner trader with zero experience you could pick this book up and understand 100% all of the concepts that are presented. Some very basic level of understanding of the stock market is required to fully benefit from the material.

Other readers complain about how he is pitching his own community and website. I do not mind that he does this. I believe that without a community of traders, especially for beginners, your chances of being successful diminish on your own.

Not expected

Did go in with the idea to hear about the "magic" of daytrading and only chose to listen because I wanted to learn about different ways of investing. But what I know about daytrading can be summed up by "gambling".
That was not what I got and I do consider testing daytrading on a simulator now.

A must read if you have an interest in day trading

This is the best book that I have come across on the subject of day trading so far. I have listened to it and read the paperback. Very well written and easy to understand. Speaks specifically to day trading and does not wonder off on other topics or other trading styles in some random or confusing way..... which seems to happen in most other “day trading” books that I have listened to or read. Thoroughly impressed.

Easy to follow great educational book

I loved this book. I loved the fact that it was easy to follow and learn. David does not sell you an easy, get rich quick life. Many times he cautions about the difficulty of being the day trader and the time and diligence required to succeed. I highly recommend it. A +++
