    Super Narration of a great book

    Richard Davidson’s Narration is fantastic. So many times, subjects like these can be narrated very poorly with boring monotone.

    Loved the book and kudos to the narrator. Fantastic job

    Very good, comprehensive

    This is an entertaining, comprehensive, and plainly written book about day trading fundamentals and theories. With HFT, you might believe that this advice is a bit outdated, but I certainly believe that most of it holds up surprisingly well. This is not a book about the personal experience of a day trading guru, but a well-written and formulated detailing of day trading and market analysis. Highly recommend. I will likely buy the print version too.
