Soviet-born author and practicing psychiatrist Elder (director, Financial Trading Seminars, Inc.) shares his learning over the years as a professional trader and expert in technical analysis and his principle of understanding the three Ms (Mind, Method, Money), which will strengthen the discipline required to be successful in trading.

He explores crucial factors in the markets that most experts overlook, including time, volume, and open interest, and describes little-known indicators to track them profitably. In addition, he covers many of the more technical approaches to investing in futures, such as factoring in the meaning from the Elliott Wave, oscillators, moving averages, Market Logic, and point-and-figure charting. His unique viewpoints in this overly saturated genre explain his particular view that most traders sabotage themselves, while offering tips for others to avoid doing the same. The narration by Richard Davidson soundly guides the listener through this highly specialized work that, although first published seven years ago, remains recommended for university libraries supporting a finance and business curriculum.

Divided into three comprehensive parts, Trade to Win explains the fundamental elements of author Thomas Busby's proven trading approach–which deals with the significance and use of time, key numbers, and market indicators. Along the way, you'll find strategies for trading stocks, options, futures, and other financial products, and go beyond the numbers to learn about a few of the often overlooked aspects of trading–including risk management, money management, and the impact of emotions on your trading.

Those who succeed in the financial marketplace are the ones who expect to do so. They learn about the markets, they work at their craft, and, as markets and technologies change, they change with them.

If you're looking for a trading system for all markets, you won't find it here. In fact, you won't find it anywhere. Systems don't work because financial markets are always in a state of flux.

Nobody understands this better than author Thomas Busby. Over the years, he has traded an array of products, including equities, futures, commodities, precious metals, ETFs, and options, and, in so doing, has developed some sensible moneymaking strategies. Now, with Trade to Win, you have the opportunity to learn from a professional trader who teaches from the experience of doing daily battle with the bulls and bears of today's financial markets.

Today's global financial markets are every bit as vicious psychologically, and sometimes even physically, as the battles the great warriors throughout history have faced. Just as the warriors of old rode out to battle with the confidence and knowledge to conquer new lands and foes, so do the warriors of the market who thrive on the battleground of the trading floor.

In Warrior Trading, Clifford Bennett, one of today's leading currency forecasters, outlines a path to trading success by highlighting the characteristics, the knowledge and skills, and the psychological state of mind required to be a true warrior trader. You'll be introduced to some fresh and unique perspectives regarding the markets, by looking at fundamental and technical analysis, as well as discovering how best to trade within the markets as an individual. Most importantly, you'll learn how to take advantage of those moments when the perceptions of most traders (the herd) are at odds with the underlying reality-moments when fear, greed, and other emotions wreak havoc on the ordinary trader's ability to operate objectively.

Divided into three comprehensive parts, Warrior Trading will show you how to develop the focus, attitude, and mental discipline of a top trader so that you can make the most out of your time in the markets.
