Elder's book is a futures oriented book of classic indicators with a little psycology (found in most books)thrown in. I have recommended it for years as a basic book, but I don't see tradeable systems there. Certainly not for "day"traders.

AE: I disagree with Richard on this one. Trading For A Living had the single greatest impact on my DAY trading of any book I have read on the subject. The key idea of the book for me, was the psychology of the trader. Traders really are losers - you must learn to accept small losses to avoid large ones!

The rest of the book is rather bland as described by Richard.

Cheers!

"Trading Rules" written by William Eng. is also a good
read for both traders and investors. I feel this book
helped in better understanding the emotional side of
being in the market. It helped me a great deal.
