About this listen

Revealing the tricks leading to success that today's market wizards keep up their sleeves, The Little Book of Trading is the resource you need to get all markets working for you again.

Recent events have left the average individual investor extremely dubious about playing the markets. But just because some unprepared individuals have paid for their mistakes is no reason to stay away from taking advantage of trending opportunities that, with a little careful planning, can yield exceptional results.

Market fluctuation is nothing new, but there is a set of rules and philosophies you can rely on to get the market back on your side, regardless of whether times are good or bad. Drawing on author Michael Covel's own extensive experience in the trading world, as well as tips and insights gathered from some of the world's most successful traders, this book identifies the tools, concepts, psychologies, and philosophies that will keep your money growing—and safe—even when the next bubble bursts or the next crisis hits.

With each chapter featuring easy-to-understand advice from a top trader or trading firm that has won by beating mutual-fund performance, this Little Book prepares the cautious, would-be investor to make money like an old hand and presents a revolutionary new argument: that mutual funds, long the investment vehicle of choice for people looking for security in retirement, are no longer to be relied on.

With everything you need to grab all markets by the horns, this book provides a comprehensive overview of active investing strategies and risk-management techniques that you can easily use to your best advantage.

if not for this book and the collective preceding

There are the books about trading. And there are Michael W. Covel books on trading. You can either do one of two things. Or Don't.
1. LIVE THIS TREND FOLLOWING LIFE.
2. DONT.
OR these markets will eat you. I got ate , Spat out I stood on a customer's lawn whilst weedeatting August of 2017 and I had my first of so so many "AH HA" Moments.. I worked for every single one of them. and boy , that feels good.
if not for this book and the collection of Michaels books , I honestly do not know where I would be. Probably still floating around , like a fhigkng lemming waiting on the Govopoly to save my ash's with free. dinners and a Direct Express card.

Excellent, but not for all traders

For me, a relatively new trader, this book really resonates. Narration is above average. Not saying much more than that I will be listening to this again.

What did you love best about The Little Book of Trading?

Great review of the trend following methodology. Learn something new every time I review the trend following mantra. I'm a believer so I soak up every word. Please publish more like it.

Required reading.

This book won't teach you how to trade but it does give you valuable insight on the psychology and attitudes of successful traders.

Want to really know how to make honest money in the market? Open this book, read, and think...

After too many years of listening to and reading the works and instructions of those who are actually clueless, I was fortunate to come into contact with work by Michael Covel, a Master of Trend Following. And thanks to this, I believe my life is changing.
Trend following has no pretenses; there is no implication that what WILL happen in the markets can be predicted by anyone, now or in the future.
You can learn every "system" and method out there. But only Trend Following has an actual scientific basis, and this has been proven by many over decades of time.
If you can open your mind and set aside, at least for a time, all that you have learned or been taught about trading and investing, you have an opportunity to find brilliance here.
This presentation is open and straight forward. It has integrity and is done plainly enough that a person of any real intelligence can, if they so choose, be illuminated by it.
My only regret is that I was not exposed to this knowledge much earlier in my life.
But there is still today and tomorrow...
Don't dip in with a toe. Either find another book or dive in.
