Friendly, readable resource.. - By: Dubbie, 29 Sep 2007 
When I am looking to learn about something & dont want to be blasted by information overload & jargon, I usuallly look to learn from someone who is an ordinary individual that just had a go & learnt as they went. And this author is one such individual, who learnt from experience, aquaintances & trial & error & general workshops. This book is very accessable from a lay persons perspective written in a friendly & coherent manner. Whats more, she seems to cover everything that is required to day trade including psychological attitude, risk v reward,trends, technical analysis, chartings & any thing else one could require for a good footing in day-trading. Good for the begineer too, but you would have to go slowely to absorb the information..

Save your money - By: , 19 May 2004 
I thought I'd give this book a try, & honestly speaking it has a few useful, but obvious, pointers. However, best investment you can make is to put your money into a more serious book that actuallly **educates** you.
The style is far to chatty & I lost count of the number of times Lori says she couln't give a "rats pahooti" about something. Annoying. Be wise.
A cornerstone guide on how to trade for a living - By: C. Smart, 12 Jan 2004 
I cannot believe how good this book this is. This book will define whether you are a trader or a gambler.
The author is very honest in sharing her past mistakes & there are various little sections in basic human psychology that spur you on & give you confidence in your general life.
She will tell you went to trust your gut instinct - & remind you that sometimes greed will give you what feels like a gut instinct.
Highly recommended book. I cannot stop reading it (in between looking at my real-time price screen!!)
Excellent foundation book. - By: , 30 Jul 2003 
It was just by share luck that I chose this book out of the many on this subject. It explains the basics, some I thought that I knew already, but evidently I did not. Charting techniques from beginners level was very well explained & introduced the most common charts. The basic charting explained in the book gives an excellent foundation. Trading pychology was evident through out the book, with the number one saying "always protect your capital".
Since reading the book I have put sone of the theories in to practice, the conconclusion is that the book enables you to go on & further reasearch various technical analysts charting. I still use this book for reference which underlies the title of "Beginners".
Excelleny buy.
