PipBull put up a good list last month

A few good ones to get started are:
1. Trade Your Way To Financial Freedom (Van Tharp)
2. Market Wizards and the New Market Wizards (Jack Scwager)
3. Psychology of Trading (Brett Steenbarger)
4. Enhancing Trader Performance (Brett Steenbarger)
5. Day Trading The Currency Market (Kathy Lien)
6. Trading in the Zone (Mark Douglas)
7. The Disciplined Trader (Mark Douglas)
8. Come into My Trading Room & Trading for a Living (Alexander Elder)
9. Adventures of a Currency Trader (Rob Booker)
10. Technical Analysis Explained (Martin Pring)


I'm making my way through them, so far it's all thumbs up.

The question needs to be asked here, before anyone can really help you out, is what are your specific needs? Where are you in your trading development?

Then it sounds like you probably need something that will help you understand market analysis and the development of a trading system.
