JMowery offers great advice, I like his replies, One thing about books: Read as much as you can. Books relay previous experiences, it may work or it may not work for you, but if you know other peoples experiences, It builds foundation, foundation of knowledge you can build on. I've read over 40-50 books pertaining to everything on long term investing/ short term investing/ scalping/ volume analysis/ Goldman Sachs 'business/Personal trader books/ Risk Analysis / Position sizing books/ When to sell / Grobs 300 pages on google/ Market Makers edges/ 1930s small white book s humphreys and shit/ etc.. etc.. I think, While I may not use 0.05% of what I learned on there, I have a background on what everybody is peeping about, I have a good idea if its doable, I know the basis behind all ideas/concepts and reasonings even if it doesn't work in the markets today. Would take me a lot longer if I had to experience it all myself. Any book you can pickup just one MONEY idea is well worth the $15-50. Experts charge thousands for 1 money idea, pay $15 and dig it out yourself. <b> amazon.com Used books or Library card = Your best friend. </b>
Hey CW, what are your favorite books? I'm actually working on creating a wish list on amazon so I can just post that. Maybe you could do the same.
