 Too Basic To Be Useful in Real Trading and Investing, 2008-03-22
This book is for investors that have no stock market experience. There are really very little new idea come out of this book. Beware, the only chart in this book is an abstract graph of a lower-high and lower-low turning into a higher-high and higher-low and the author spends pages after pages to explain it.

 Excellent Book, 2008-02-24
This book is now one of my must have books on investing along with "Reminiscences of a Stock Operator" and "How I made $2,000,000 in the Stock Market". It stresses the most important factor in trading successfully, patience. There are no consistent get rich quick schemes in the market. If you accept this it just takes time and a willingness to hold onto your winners and quickly sell your losers, to make money. It just takes a long time. I want quick easy money like everyone else but have now accepted that it will take time to make back my "Easy Money" losses. I am now chipping away at those losses week by week and month by month using one to two stocks. I want to sell and take my profits but these books have convinced me I have no reason to sell a rising stock.

Easy To Read... Easy to Apply... And NOT boring, 2008-01-26
I think the author was very much thinking of those that who are overwhelmed with technical analysis of charts in trading the market. Some of the principles taught in this book are very basic. However, they are all necessary to be successful in the market.
The author basically writes his experience of having valuable information passed down to him by a VERY VERY SUCCESSFUL Trader/Speculator. Its as if we were there watching the author quiz this guru. Each chapter ends with a brief summary of the principle(s) to keep in mind. You could literally read the summaries alone and benefit.
At the time of this review, we are at the beginning of 2008... Bear market, recession worries, credit crunch, new president (btw, im neutral)... with the exception of one "greedy" trade (which ended in a huge loss), my portfolios have improved. I find myself applying the principles found in the book and have found my trades more disciplined as a result. My portfolios have improved in having more winning trades (even meager profits), while minimizing bad losses. My risk management has improved immensely!

Brings back the basics, 2007-06-24
This is a great book to read for beginners. It really nails the basics of watching for break out stocks with potential, limit your watch list to only a few stocks (3-5). And limit your trading to only high probability trades and trade only about 5 times a year. The book teaches that all that is needed is to turn off CNBC and cancel all your financial periodicals and simply watch volume and price action. The author teaches these principles by telling the story of how he met with a great speculator at the end of his life and this speculator passed on his tactics. The author believes that you only need 3 books to be a successful stock speculator, Darvas's "How I made $2,000,000" and Jilers "How to use charts to make money in the stock market" I have read both of these books and think they are great books, but leave out huge pieces of the puzzle. He also recommends his previous book "The perfect stock". For experienced traders you will find nothing new here, just an attempt to simplify. If you know what Darvas', O'Neal's , and Livermore's trading methods were then you need a more in depth book. But for beginners I highly recommend this book it will save you a lot of time wandering through the trading book jungle. William O'Neal is another excellent author for the investor or trader.Also Alexander Elder for stock traders.

Best book on trading I have ever read, 2007-03-24
SIMPLE: Best book on trading I have ever read with the Nicolas Darvas and How to make money in stocks by Jesse Livermore (written by Smitten).
The other one of Brad Koteshwar is really good too.
