Books For Traders

Greetings,

As an aspiring professional trader, I believe in sharpening the skills daily to thrive in the markets. There are threads here on the forums where many traders recommend books. However, I am only seeking for the recommendation which you have already read.

Please recommend me some books which you have already finished reading or almost going to finish it reading. Please do say if you do like to read any trading book again.

Thank you.

Thank you very much @CavaliereVerde. I’m looking into this. With what issues did this book help you? What overall improvements did you find in your trading style and thinking?

It introduces concepts like:

  • significance
  • robustness
  • overfitting

I’m looking for a used copy of the book now. I look forward to reading the concepts, you benefited yourself, in-depth.

Thank you very much @mlawson71.

The book is in queue already. I believe it’ll help me to learn crest-n-troughs of the charts.

This one is seriously one of the best books that we have. Must read!
