Real life trading plan for winning in the futures markets!
This is by far the best book I've read about futures trading. And I have many books by some of the best known, so-called "experts". The author takes you step by step through a trading methodology called the "Ross Hook". There is no "fluff". Only real life, usable information. I really learned a lot from reading the sections on trade management. What an eye opener!

I highly recommend this book to anyone who is tired of all the hype and misleading advertising that is done in this industry, and wants a real trading system to work with. It is very refreshing to read a book on futures trading that actually shows you, in precise detail, how to trade. Forget about vague and general "rules". You will learn techniques that you can take to the bank!

This is a down and dirty real life way to win in the futures market! Excellent job Mr. Ross!

Best Book on Trading
This is the very best book I have read on Trading. I have made a lot of money using Ross's trading philosophy. In summary his philosophy is cutting your losses short and letting your winners ride, but equally importantly he shows you how to implement this trading method. Do yourself a favor and get this book.

What About Six Stars!!!!!
1) This one of the best books I have read.
2) It is not based on 'buying into value' but 'buying a thrusting burst' (market strength).
3) In short - the book will teach you some of the best ways to handle the trends of a market - and - the flip side of the coin: to stay clear of non-trending areas.
4) Much recommended - without it one is not "fully educated"
