Book Description

November 10, 1999 0471362107 978-0471362104 1
By now, you've probably heard lots of stories about the thousands of individuals worldwide who, armed with little more than their PCs, are making a killing day trading stocks online. Could electronic day trading be your ticket to financial independence? Here's your chance to find out.

Written by Sunny J. Harris, a successful electronic trader and one of today's most respected trading educators, Electronic Day Trading 101 is a complete step-by-step introduction to online day trading--what it is, how it works, and how to get started in business for yourself--and succeed. Requiring no prior stock market or electronic investing experience, it covers all the basics, from stock market fundamentals and essential trading terminology to sophisticated techniques for evaluating your trading performance. With dozens of illustrations and real-life examples, Harris fills you in on what you need to know about trading hardware and software, selecting an online broker or ECN, opening a trading account, developing a trading system that's right for you, trading from home or from a trading salon, performing fundamental and technical analysis, and researching stocks online.

Drawing upon her two decades of experience as head of her own trading firm, Harris provides expert coaching on the all-important business aspects of running a thriving electronic trading practice. She provides invaluable tips on goal setting, maintaining discipline, managing your time, budgeting, good record keeping, and taxes. She also helps you to understand the psychological barriers that often keep people from succeeding as traders, and tells you how to overcome them.

Electronic Day Trading 101 is an indispensable springboard for anyone considering taking the leap into online trading.

A top trading guru tells you everything you need to know about getting started as an online day trader.

"Sunny Harris has created a most comprehensive road map for guiding one into the exciting world of 'Direct Access Electronic Trading.' Very informative, realistic, and helpful. A 'must read'." - Harvey Houtkin, CEO, All-Tech Investment Group Author of Secrets of the SOES Bandit

"If you're going to start trading, start here. And, if you don't know a Level 2 screen from a Short List, then don't go further without reading this book. Sunny Harris has put together a great resource that will save you time and work, and added common sense that could only come from a successful, experienced trader." - Perry Kaufman, author of Trading Systems

1.0 out of 5 stars I'd return it, if I wanted to waste more time because of it., January 29, 2000
This review is from: Electronic Day Trading 101 (Wiley Online Trading for a Living) (Hardcover)
A 350-page book of which the last 238 pages are appendices, a glossary, and an index. 125 pages of the appendices are nothing but a listing of NASDAQ stocks, symbols, and sectors. Buy IBD instead for $1.00. Including the first 112 pages, you will find much info, but very, very little substance and discussion. It's but a compendium of data. Don't buy this book, if you are seeking knowledge about how to trade.

1.0 out of 5 stars Hoodwinked?, January 26, 2000
By 
Ken Adams (Austin, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Electronic Day Trading 101 (Wiley Online Trading for a Living) (Hardcover)
I thought this would be a referance book on electronic daytrading software and how to apply the information gleaned from it. The main point of the first 100 pages was to tell the different places I might find the information I expected to have been in the book. Then there are over 200 pages of appendices listing the different stock exchanges, a list of compainies on the Nasdaq, etc. This would not have been worth the price if it had been a five dollar paperback.

1.0 out of 5 stars Ripped off!!, October 18, 2000
This review is from: Electronic Day Trading 101 (Wiley Online Trading for a Living) (Hardcover)
I couldn't believe that I bought this crap. I didn't learn anything from this book. It has so little content. Most of the book is an appendix listing the stocks on the Nasdaq. This is most likely an attempt to make money from the day trading craze. I bought this because of the last few glowing recommendations but they must have been paid to write it. DON'T BUY THIS BOOK. There are better ones out there that provides better details on day trading.
