Book Description

March 1, 1998
Larry Connors has co-authored two of the best selling trading books of the decade: "Investment Secrets of a Hedge Fund Manager" (with Blake Hayward) which brought traders strategies that are now in the mainstream of Wall Street thinking and "Street Smarts" (with Linda Raschke), a must-read treatise that revealed the in-depth secrets of two well-known, successful traders.

"Connors on Advanced Trading Strategies" is Larry's latest and most valuable contribution to the trading community.

Here's what one of his readers writes:

"Thanks to Larry Connors, "I am now a General Partner for an Investment Advisory firm.

"Things look good for the future!"

(Greg Che, Cambridge, MA)

If you trade Futures, Stocks or Options, you can now have in your hands 258 pages of the very best material Larry Connors has ever researched, tested and revealed.

In its 258 pages and 31 chapters you will learn some of the most explosive short-term market strategies ever made available to traders.

Among the 30-plus strategies revealed in the manual are:

THE 15-MINUTE ADX BREAKOUT METHOD (Chapter 20) Especially for day-traders ! This dynamic method teaches you how to specifically identify and trade the most explosive futures and stocks every day. This strategy alone is worth the price of the book. It specifically shows how to choose to enter the same market day after day. By identifying an over-all trend and then waiting for a market to "speak to you" just after the opening, you can take positions where before you might have hesitated or even refrained from entering. This is a day trader's dream. . . imagine buying low soon after the opening and selling higher late in the session. Day after day - in the same market !

OPTIONS (Section 6) Four chapters and numerous in-depth strategies for trading options. You will learn the strategies used by the Market Makers and a small handful of professionals to consistently capture options gains. Trading volatility with options Trading options with the Connors Vix Reversal Options on stock splits Exploiting overpriced stock sector options

CRASH BURN AND PROFIT (Chapter 11) Huge short-side profits occur when stocks implode. By following the simple rules of this setup you could have shorted Diana Corp at 67 3/8 - a few months later it had collapsed to 1 1/2. This, from one of the most straight-forward entry techniques you'll ever see !

The CONNORS "VIX REVERSALS" 1, 2 and 3: (Chapter 2) You will learn how the CBOE Volatility Index pinpoints short-term highs and lows in the S&P's and in the broad market. The average profit per trade is among the highest Larry has ever released in three of the most powerful strategies ever revealed.

ADVANCED VOLATILITY STRATEGIES (Section 2) Numerous never-before-revealed strategies and concepts using volatility measures to identify markets immediately before they explode.

TWO-FOR-ONE MONEY MANAGEMENT (Chapter 28) Specific money management methodology to use which helps maximize profits while keeping your risks to a minimum. It is an exit strategy which allows you to participate in potentially large moves with reduced exposure. You will find you have more confidence in taking trades as it allows you to enter into potentially explosive setups while reducing the risk inherent in these setups. This strategy helps offset your concerns about allowing profits to run.

MODIFYING TRADE SIZE AND STOP PLACEMENT Based on Volatility Measurement (Chapter 5) One of the most successful Commodity Trading Advisors in the world "blew up" his company because he ignored this one rule. His story is used as a lesson to point out the dangers of not paying attention to a market's changing volatility. You will know how to exploit market volatility when it explodes.

Also, included are chapters on : "Trin" thrusts off the ARMS index Trading where the action is Trading e

1.0 out of 5 stars Beware of this Overpriced book, August 24, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Connors On Advanced Trading Strategies (Hardcover)
I have to repeat here what I said in reviewing another (ridiculously overpriced) Connors book ["Street Smarts"]. The only "advanced" strategy Larry Connors knows well is how to make money out of the miriads of hopeful wannabes that overpay for his expensive books and for his TradingMarkets.com web site, which costs more than a thousand dollars per year and is just a hook to get the members to buy more overpriced "trading services", $5,000.00 tutorials, "ultimate" courses, fantastic techniques, books, etc., etc. Just think of this before you dish out your money to this guy: if he knew any "advanced" Trading strategies to make real money he wouldn't be peddling his overpriced merchandise for a living. Wouldn't it be nicer to live as a rich trader, trading from your yatch your great advanced strategies for millions, instead of busting your rear running a Web site in downtown LA to trap yet another fool who thinks that perhaps this new advisory service will "make him" money? Let Connors first show that he can make millions trading before he calls his strategies "advanced". Obviously, they are just not advanced enough to make him rich --though he will be soon, if you pay him ...for this mostly charts collection of silly trading advice. If you still feel you have to learn the basics from the popular self-appointed "gurus", do it at least with a minimal expense.

3.0 out of 5 stars Go, March 20, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Connors On Advanced Trading Strategies (Hardcover)
This book is for anxious traders who think the found the get rich quick book. 250 page book in 16 font size, half of it are charts for stocks that worked using his system. Again no testing is done. Mostly about Wilder ADX, DDI for day trading. If your day trading system is not working you may try this one. The best method is the simplist method. And the high priced books are not the best books.

4.0 out of 5 stars CareerDayTrader.com - A good follow-up to Street Smarts, July 24, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Connors On Advanced Trading Strategies (Hardcover)
A good book and a follow-up in our minds to Street Smarts. Somewhat of a review of the previous book co-authored with Raschke. If you like "Street Smarts", are willing to do work, take trades, and develop your own trading style this book is very useful. No book by itself is going to make you a profitable trader. But, if you incorporate high probability trades into a method for trading small and frequently you can make money. This book will help you develop a trading methodology. All we can say is that one of the keys to trading is to take enough small trades to allow a high probability method to get you onto the trading probability tables. If you are going to try and hit home runs once in a while you will be either more skilled than all but one "market wizard" or very lucky.
