    "Mastering the trade" by Carter - eye opener.

    But deep down inside it is when you run out of things that do not work that you start making money....

    I'm still finding things that do not work...:D

  10. I would say there are few good books that changed my trading methods and patterns.

    1. Trading for a Living - by Alexander Elder : This book gave more insights in to mass psychology and a guided my Money management skills, methods and mind(They way my mind deals with market movements).

    2. Profitable Candlestick patterns - by Stephen Biglow : By reading this book, I learnt the art of Candlestick reading.


    There are quite some good books that I am yet to read and I am ordering them one by one to read.

    You can find my wish list of books here : http://www.flipkart.com/wishlist/optionguru
