Editorial Reviews

From the Author

I still remember -- it was back in the spring of 2008, where I first put words to the 1st chapter of my book.  The book was completed in the summer of that year.  It was such an important piece of work for me in so many ways.  I had completely convinced myself that my way was the best way to trade for a living and to generate great long-term returns. The system was applied to the markets for two years, during the worst economic recession most of us have ever seen -- and a 3rd party verification site recorded the amazing journey.  

I wholeheartedly believe you will enjoy this book.  Many will be awed by the possibilities of the system.  Hopefully, you end up putting the system to good use -- whether to trade for a living or to build a long-term personal fortune.  Welcome to The Best Trading System (Investing 2.0)!  After reading this book, I don't think you would want to invest in any other way.

5.0 out of 5 stars BookWorm Read Everything But Still Lost Money September 22, 2012

By jayleo82

Format:Paperback

That pretty much sums it up about me. Many years ago, I was totally stoked about stocks and proceeded to read as many books as I could get my hands on, absorbing as much information as I could. I was determined to succeed no matter what. It didn't seem all that hard and besides I was an intelligent person. Year after year, however, my account statements kept dwindling. It seemed none of the books I've read helped me. Perhaps it was just me. Perhaps I wasn't psychologically built to handle the markets, which turned out to be harder than I first envisioned. Or perhaps many of the books I've read didn't put things together for me so I can be profitable. I mean, I'm not a stupid person nor am I a gambler. Furthermore, I'm an avid reader of anything related to the stock market. I'm not dyslexic. I understand the books I read.

Here's what I think my problem had been all along. I was told by many books that I have to be profitable as soon as I enter the trade. I was to wait for a perfect setup and then buy or short a stock. If it goes the other way, I'm supposed to cut my loss with a stoploss. How many people can actually do this and not get whipsawed to death by commission costs and spreads? I don't know any human who can do this religiously. Every time I cut my loss, that is still a loss and I have to gain back more on a percentage basis just to get back to break even. I don't know how many times I've bought a stock and it goes down and I take my loss, only to see the stock rocket higher without me. It's such a debilitating and hopeless feeling. And then I jumped back in, only to get stopped out again and again.

Chris' book and his system totally changed my outlook on approaching the stock market the right way. His system allows me to keep on owning a stock even though it goes down after I buy it. I own the stock that I love as long as I want and make a move whenever I feel like it and when I feel the setup is perfect. It's such a wonderful feeling to be able to do this. I'm no longer scared of owning my favorite stocks. I can own the stocks as long as I want and trade them the way I want to trade them.

I highly recommend this book. It will make all the difference in the world for you, as it did for me. Just be sure to read it carefully and really try to understand what Chris is telling you about what works. It has been estimated that 95-98% of all traders will lose money in the long run. Do you really want to do things the old way? If you follow the recommendations of some of the books out there, you're doing things the old way. Even though the other authors may have good intentions, some of the things they recommend cannot be done by humans but by robots.

I saw Chris call out real time trades and investments and was impressed. I'm sure new readers will be impressed as well. He is one of the very few who actually timestamps his trades while many talk theories and complicated (and useless) data but when it comes to push and shove they refuse to timestamp to prove their systems actually work as they say. Chris is the real deal. His book is definitely the best stock market book I've ever read. Any value investor who has ever thought about crossing the chasm into the world of trading should make this book a priority. You definitely want to put this book on your wishlist so you don't forget to buy it. If you think value investing is the only way to make real money in the long term, Chris has a secret to tell you. I want to learn from someone who made verified 200% annualized returns in 2007-2009 where most people blew up. Miraculously, Chris did not trade risky options, penny stocks, futures or derivatives during the recession - just old-fashion stocks.

If I could give this book a perfect 10 stars, I would. It's just a remarkable book with a sensible approach the majority of people missed to their detriment. I don't remember much of all the books I've ever read on investing throughout the years because they haven't really worked for me, but I'm sure ten years from now I'll still remember Chris' book and his teachings. It's just a great, complete and very unique book. Even dividend investing may have to take a backseat to this powerful system. By the way, I think this book is being sold way too cheaply for the tremendous and potentially life-changing value it gives. Just one person's opinion, of course.

I say it again, this is a great book if you understand the implications on investing. There will be detractors who will disagree and think they know better. I want to end this (admittedly lengthy) testimonial with a quote from Warren Buffett a long time ago, when he realized he could get rich:

"On my honeymoon I traveled out west. When I visited the casino and saw all these smart well-dressed people participating in a game with the odds against them, it was then that I realized I won't have a problem getting rich!"

Chris' system attempts to help you accelerate your returns but at the same time to keep you from being sucked into that destructive mindset that will destroy your wealth, especially if you buy and sell stocks. You just have to tweak it a little bit to make it work for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unbelievably Good And Complete System March 29, 2012

By Helen Cotton

Format:Kindle Edition

I've been trading stocks for years and never really attained much success. Until, on a whim, I decided to buy this book. I don't buy any book or seminar anymore until I see good results produced by the author. Chris, according to Covestor, made over 200% in 2008 and 200% in 2009 in his trading account and that was impressive. I thought I knew everything about trading stocks. Well, I did, but I never was able to put everything together as a complete dependable money-generating system. Chris' book helped me with that and I'm forever grateful.

Anybody not reading this book is going to be so far left behind. Nothing I've read out there has more common sense and power than Chris' book. I guarantee it. The book is destined for greatness.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than 'The Intelligent Investor' May 9, 2012

By Rams

Format:Kindle Edition

This book is amazing. Before I bought it I thought it was just all hype by newbie stock market investors who didn't know what they were talking about. I've read many investing and trading books from various well-known money managers and professional traders. I've also read the classics from the likes of Ben Graham and Philip Fisher. I thought I've seen everything and have tried many things but could not achieve the type of profitability that I had dreamt of achieving. The path to stock market riches still seemed elusive. I was always torn between investing and trading. Should I do one or should I do the other? Which one is more profitable? Neither approach produced respectable returns for me. I often felt the stock market was rigged and only the very rich had inside information to get richer.

Chris Beanie's book absolutely blows the lid off for me. Now everything is so much clearer. I felt electricity down my spine as I was reading the most important passages of the book. It was like multiple light bulbs all turning on at the same time. Though the concepts are fairly simple, the way Beanie puts them all together for immediate action is quite stunning. Honestly, I don't think I could have figured this out in a hundred years, if ever. This book just saved me 20-50 years, possibly more, in the learning curve to making money in the stock market.

Don't hesitate to buy this highly practical book. It won't disappoint. If I had to choose between this book or The Intelligent Investor going forward, I would pick this book. But don't take my word for it -- decide for yourself.

What previous customers say about the book, The Best Trading System (Investing 2.0):

Beanie,
Wanted to wish you Best in the New Years. I am an avid follower of the blog and of the trading system you use. I want to thank you for showing me a successful way to trade as well as developing the discipline to execute it. I have generated a lot of bvi's this past year which has enabled me to show a profit in a difficult year. I hope the blog continues.
(R. Heifetz)


...Thanks for all your ideas. Even though I have maintained a very conservative approach I am still up 18% in three months. My portfolio is small $30000 but I am confident with your approach it will grow steadily.
(Srini R.)


Your system is working very well I cant wait to take it the next step further. Thanks again.
(Erik U.)


Just got done reading the manual and it is pretty impressive. I will have to reread it a couple of times.
(Niranjan A.)


Great manual. I have been trading in a similar fashion. However it was a tough learning experience to stop...... Wish I would have learned this a long time ago. It's a simple idea explained In a simple way. Great job beans.
(Mohammed S.)


...Thanks a lot, Beanie. Your system is really fantastic!!!
(William Wu)


By the way, the best part about your trading method is its simplicity. Having said that, its hard to unplug from all the other noise in my head from things I have learned elsewhere. To be successful with your method, it takes a conscious effort to pull back and simplify/clarify one's thinking and increase one's patience. There needs to be a single-minded focus on sticking with what you espouse, and not to dilute it with a bunch of other trading theories and methods. The concept of........ its all so logical. I am definitely way ahead with my trading after reading your manual... It got me to thinking that its a good and simple way to get my daughter into all of this. Thanks for all the work and time you put into your posts.
(Westley)


I have been using your system to trade the SPY last few weeks with great results. The recent volatility has made for large swings, making SPY a very good trading vehicle. Thanks again.
(Pete I, CA)


Beanie, I've gone through your manual a couple of times, and thought about it. I like it; it makes sense. I like your way of thinking about "the business."
(B. Sullivan, MO)


Your manual is concise and easy to understand. You're practically giving it away!
(Kathleen)


Tonight, I am telling you that I purchased your manuscript in February. Since 2/1, I have made many trades with a gain of $42,471. That is a 42.9% increase in account value. This is true and there is more to come by Wednesday. I had planned to leave a new testimonial with my results as of the end of April (only three months). It is hard for me to believe. I am so happy and am very glad I found you on the web.
(Barbara L., Iowa)


I never paid for stock advice or systems before so I don't know what other systems are like or how much they cost, but after reading your manuscript I do LESS work and make more money. I think I made my money back at like 9:45 the second day trading with your system. This is a great time to make money with your system in that there is a good deal of volatility these days. Even so, I was down over 5,000 USD when I got your manuscript about two months ago. Now Im down about 1000. If this keeps up, my boss better watch his step.
(Anon)


Beanie I am having soooo much fun now -- actually your system is very simple and for an average trader it is so easy to miss the point of trading and the best ways to trade. I do believe everyone who wants to trade well needs to buy your manuscript. I feel like a miracle has happened to me!!! I am finally sucessful.
I am getting to do what I love the most - trading and making $$$$$
I thank you for all your comments, jokes and neat commentary. I know I still have to learn a lot more. I have traded for many years, had brokers manage my money and ended up losing a lot of money But now I will be able to make my longterm losses go away.
(Barbara L., Iowa)


Hi Beanie,
Genius. I received your manual today and my first impression was there is nothing in here - before I opened it. I started reading it and was struck by how much sense it makes. I read the whole thing and will reread it several times. I have several questions but will not pose all of them till I review it... I was so excited about reading your manual that I missed half the information at my children's 4H meeting....
(P.D. - obstetrican/gynecologist, California)


Thanks for your help, I've re-read your system 3 times so far and it's making an awful lot of sense. Can't wait to try it out - I've currently got the best part of $100k tied up in shares to produce covered calls. It is fairly safe and produces around 24%+ per year. I'll start out with $5k trading your way and if I'm doing well, I'll start to add to this bit by bit... So thanks again and kind regards from Ireland.
(M.H.,Ireland)


Beanie,
I really appreciate the manuscript... I have been investing in stocks for many years and this past year I thought I would improve my returns via stock options. So I spent a small fortune on training and "coaching" and have not had the expected results. I am thrilled with your system and it makes a lot of sense to me! Thanks again for sharing your system!
(A. B., Utah)


I do like good ideas. And since my trading isn't all that I would like it to be, I went out on a limb.... I figured the worst case scenario was that it wouldn't be more than one trade gone bad...... And I will say that I am pleasantly surprised. I was really expecting to get ripped off. It took me awhile to wrap my brain around the idea, but I'm sold on it now. I can't wait for my existing trades to close out. When they do, I'll begin prooving the concept with 100 shares of SPY. After it becomes a natural way to trade, and I proove the concept, I'll happily add more shares.
Thanks!
(D.T., California)


Hi... I received the manual last Fri & read it cover to cover over the weekend... your ideas made a lot of sense... like so many others, I have been trading like a lost soul for many years with nothing to show for it... I started applying your methodology & picked...
(S.M., New York)


Since getting your manuscript last week I have applied it on 3 stocks with great success, I have done 6 trades and 5/6 have been profitable the other was minimal loss .02 per share but I pay no commissions other than exchange fees so it is really a good program for me.
(R. Beard, Missouri)


Thanks for the manuscript. It was a great read, and gave me some definite lateral insight thinking. It was worth every penny. Is your name/nickname beanie? Not sure what to call you........ I'm an R.N. with two artificial knees from giving to others my whole life, and now I'm in a position where none of our social systems will help me (because I have the "valuable R.N. license", so I will help myself, and make three times my hourly wage with the insights you have provided me. I will succeed because I am patient, and will do trades the way a sniper tracks his mark.
God bless you, and your family.
Regards, Karl
(Karl C, Colorado)


Beanie,
It's so simple......... Now I see the light!
(H. Small, Florida)


Dear Beanie,
I received your system last week and I was thrilled as to how easy to understand it was. I am a self employed business owner so I know exactly what you are talking about. The logic and simplicity of your system is astounding. I just can't believe I couldn't figure it out all these years being in the market. I wished I had your system in my hands sooner so I wouldn't have to waste my money worrying about what stock to pick next. It is so simple and away with the emotional up and down roller coaster feeling I endured with the fluctuation market. I am going to do things differently and will apply your system starting next week.
Thank you so much.
(Karen B., California)


Beanie, you have the greatest ideas and the most useful approach to the market out there and I thought I seen it all. At first, I thought you were selling some shit vaporscript, but after having read it I realize you're so logical, insightful, and very intelligent guru. Just wanted to send you a testimonial because you've helped me so much. Thanks. Like you, I am going to rule the market.
(D. Nguyen, Texas)


Beanie,
I love u man, for all your help. Been doing it your way like.........................
Just killing it, my trading account and IRA. Cancelled all my subscriptions. Dude, I think you're gonna be famous one day!
(J. Mann, Illinois)


Beanie,
...made a small fortune so far trading your ideas. I started with only $28k. I chose to play ........ because I love these stocks. For the first time in my life I feel like I can do this for a living. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
(C. Tyler)


Hello,
The manuscript/book came on Monday for two weeks. I read it (yes, my english is good enough for that) and it's nearly similar with my own ideas that i have for six or seven years. But with a couple of more ideas from you. That help me for more focused of the right things. I playing the last years with Hyips, Options and agressive Managed Account's. But the easy way (Your way) is the best way, i think.
