If you have absolutely no knowledge of the Currency Markets then this book may be useful to you. The subtitle of the book is "Manage Risk and Reward in the Forex Markets by Learning How to:..."

Unfortunately, the overwhelming majority of the book is about Currency Futures and Options but NOT Forex.

This book is not worth the paper that it is printed on. Author does not know the subject, and does not offer any information that could not easily have been obtained online for free. Tried to contact author at his website to answer question and never responded. Classic example of take the money and run. Will never buy a book again from these authors nor from Prima Publishing.

This was a huge disappointment. The book is simplistic, disjointed, and offers nothing that even a novice could use. It has a feeling of being written quickly to cash in on the forex trading phenomenon. Look elsewhere for advice in particular anything by Jack Schwager or by Wiley Press, they are usually excellent.

As the author of the book, I am pleased to note that three executives from respected and prominant forex institutions all have endorsed my book, Electronic Currency Trading for Maximium Profit. They are with Gain Capital, Midas Forex and GCI.

Apart from their professional status, they are, of course, informed on the subject, unlike a couple of reviewers who took the time to expose their lack of experience in forex.

I assume if they are buying books on forex trading, that they are in the learning process at some level.

Between them and those who have publicly endorsed the book, I believe I will take the forex institutions.
