Harry Domash has done a good job of putting together a whole lot of information in one place, from trading to financial analysis to technical analysis. The trading chapter could have been a little more with a comparison of major on-line brokerages. One thing which I did not find mentioned in the many books I have read so far and found out the hard way is that some brokerages place a bid related cap on buy stops and sell stops, i.e. if the current bid price is $25 your sell stop can be no higher than $24.25. This can be a real turn off. Additionally, it would also save the readers a lot of aggravation if books like Harry's could say something about the less than fantastic load times of some of these sites. That said, this book has good concise information for beginning to intermediate investors..

I'm very new to online investing, and bought this book from my local bookstore. I just found it here to send a copy to my sister. It it seems like a very comprehensive introduction to the investment resources available on the internet without bias towards any one method of investing over another. However, the author doesn't hesitate to tell which resources he has personally found to be more usefull in the past and why. I took a quick look at the first 25 books Amazon listed in this category and didn't find anything I'd consider sending instead.
