Download or read book Getting Started in Stock Analysis Illustrated Edition written by Michael C. Thomsett and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-12-09 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robust analysis shows a more complete picture of market behavior Getting Started in Stock Analysis is an exciting visual guide to both technical and fundamental analysis for the private investor. Rather than addressing the benefits of fundamental or technical analysis, author and trader Michael C. Thomsett draws upon three decades' experience in the stock market to demonstrate why traders need to employ both. Readers will learn how both methods are different aspects of the same cause and effect within the market, and how exploiting one method at the expense of the other results in an incomplete picture of the true market behavior. Coverage includes a full explanation of the range of indicators necessary to create a working system of analysis that anyone can perform on their own, helping long- and short-term investors alike improve selection and confirm investment decisions. Charts of actual listed companies demonstrate how these techniques are applied in a real trading environment. Investors and traders are constantly seeking the "magic bullet" for identifying profitable trades and timing both entry and exit. Since the 1940s, the average holding period has fallen from eight years to eight weeks – making fundamental and technical analysis more challenging. This book describes how combining these approaches can compensate for the modern market environment to produce a more accurate – and profitable – analysis. Choose better stocks and other securities Improve entry and exit while managing risk Develop more robust analysis skills Blend fundamental and technical analysis techniques The reduced cost of trading, ease of access via the Internet, and changes in the overall culture of the stock market have increased the pace and volume of trading more than ever before. In this environment, sharp analysis becomes ever more critical. Getting Started in Stock Analysis is the visual guide to more confident investing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finally, an investing book which isn’t an infomercial! When you are learning to trade, there are 2 types of books that you don't need. There are the dry-as-dust academic books that require a PhD in math to read. And then there are the books about a trader who turned $5,000 into $100 million, but with no details about how he did it… but he’ll let you pay thousands of dollars to learn how. Here’s the deal. Position trading is how men like Warren Buffett and Ray Dalio amassed a net worth of tens of billions of dollars. By trading a few times per year, rather than a few times per day. Which is why people who have followed their advice to the letter… Have literally made millions of dollars just from doing exactly as the advice suggests... No more and no less! And many of these people started of as small part-time traders like you and I. Over the years, the team at Alpha Bull Traders has continually refined a position trading strategy which has resulted in untold amounts of profit. Using a combination of western technical and fundamental analysis and ancient Japanese candlestick charting techniques – we are able to note which days you should… and more importantly which days you shouldn’t be trading. Because here’s the big “secret” which people don’t want you to know… You only need to trade between 5-15 times a year to make huge profits in the stock market! In fact, some years have seen huge gains in our portfolio with as little as 3 trades. Here’s just a fraction of what you’ll learn inside: How to easily profit from the bear market with one simple fund. 95% of beginner investors and trader don’t know about it, and yet you can easily net 10-12% a year in a bear market. The #1 thing new traders miss about aftermarket trading. Get this right and you’ll have a huge advantage How to set a proper stop loss so you don’t get stopped out prematurely. One of the biggest mistakes new traders make is having a stop loss which is too tight. Do this instead and you’ll profit when the market moves in your favor. The “zen trader” strategy which makes you immune to losses (which although rare, will occur with any trading plan) A useful, yet barely known website which breaks company news faster than relying on mainstream news services. How to use the “other 80/20 rule” to profit from short term price movements. 3 profit securing lessons to learn from the DOTCOM bubble How to beat the market without spending hours each day monitoring stocks. Why a new trader should never trade cryptocurrency, and what to trade instead How one trader made $1.4 million in a single day with 1 options trade, and why you shouldn’t try to replicate their strategy Money management for absolute beginners How to profit from legal marijuana (all the upside of cannabis growing companies but without the red tape and volatility) …and much, much more. You may have experienced various obnoxious and even misleading advertisements of easy, get rich trading strategies. This is not one of those. You won’t have to spend thousands on expensive trading software or “magic bullet systems” In fact, you can get started using an online trading account and use free websites for your information (you’ll find the best two in Chapter 7) You will build up both your skills and confidence, with practical “how-to” approaches.

Download or read book Trading and Electronic Markets What Investment Professionals Need to Know written by Larry Harris and published by CFA Institute Research Foundation. This book was released on 2015-10-19 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The true meaning of investment discipline is to trade only when you rationally expect that you will achieve your desired objective. Accordingly, managers must thoroughly understand why they trade. Because trading is a zero-sum game, good investment discipline also requires that managers understand why their counterparties trade. This book surveys the many reasons why people trade and identifies the implications of the zero-sum game for investment discipline. It also identifies the origins of liquidity and thus of transaction costs, as well as when active investment strategies are profitable. The book then explains how managers must measure and control transaction costs to perform well. Electronic trading systems and electronic trading strategies now dominate trading in exchange markets throughout the world. The book identifies why speed is of such great importance to electronic traders, how they obtain it, and the trading strategies they use to exploit it. Finally, the book analyzes many issues associated with electronic trading that currently concern practitioners and regulators.
