 Why so negative?, 2008-07-22
Seems to be quite a few negative reviews. Must be by people who have never tried to trade. Yes the author is redundant, but by no means is it as redundant as described by others. This is a very good book and a must read for anyone serious about trading.

 Warning! Amazon's book is faulty, 2008-05-13
Guys,
This book is absolutely awesome. I have nothing against it, and I consider it a must read for any trader. My purpose of this review is to caution you that there are missing chapters in the book that I received. It looks like the publisher screwed up.... Just a caution.

Perceptive guide to trading behavior., 2008-04-18
Author Mark Douglas explains that he lost almost everything he owned because of bad trading decisions. The experience led him to rigorous self-examination, and he discovered that emotions, especially fear, had led him to trade imprudently. He went on to write this straightforward, very penetrating explanation of the role of beliefs and emotions in trading. This is not an abstract academic exercise. Douglas is a trader talking to traders. He is thorough and practical in his analysis and advice. At times, his style may be awkward, stilted and even cumbersome; however, these flaws do not prevent him from communicating important, useful information. Although the book is specifically about emotional and psychological factors as they affect trading, readers are likely to notice that these influences are active in other dimensions of their lives as well. getAbstract finds that this is quite a good little book that has stood the test of time, despites changes in the technology of trading.

Best trading psychology and self-help book, 2008-04-07
This is the best book I have read on trading psychology. I almost complete my second reading now, and I am "shocked" how many gems I missed during my first reading...
The best advice I get out from this book is "there're no failures or mistakes in trading, they are only reflections of what one needs to learn to grow." I have found many of the wisdom and "revealations" apply not only to improving trading results but also to almost all aspects of living too. Highly recommended to new traders!

 A missing piece of the trading puzzle, 2008-02-27
It is crucial that all traders master the principles presented in this book. The lessons presented in this book are 5 stars, however the writing style is 2 stars. If you can walk away with the principles this book teaches in staying with your system, do not buy or sell stocks based on your emotions, and be mentally prepared for both wins and losses then you will do well. I am sorry to say that reading this book is torture, it is about three times as long as it should be. The writers style makes the principles far to complex and clinical. The book dives far deeper into psychology than is needed to trade stocks in a disciplined manner. You would do better to read any of Alexander Elder's book on how to manage the mind while trading stocks or read the author's other book "Trading in the Zone" for a much lighter read. This book is just over kill on simple concepts. Also, reading the last two chapters of this book is all you really need.
