4.0 out of 5 stars A good book, but false advertising, maybe?, May 2, 2000
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Trade Stocks Online (Wiley Online Trading for a Living) (Hardcover)
Let me start by saying that this is a good book. One might accuse the author of false advertising because there is very little about "online" stock trading. Sure, there are a few references to a couple of sites, but the author admits that he relies on a human broker for times when the market is moving fast. This book is about trading options on stock splits. The latter half of the book comprises his strategies, which ALL have to do with trading options on companies that are about to have, or have had, stock splits. The bottom line, however, is that the basics are very well explained and this is a very worthwhile book.

3.0 out of 5 stars The title doesn't match the contents, July 15, 2000
This review is from: Trade Stocks Online (Wiley Online Trading for a Living) (Hardcover)
This book concerns online trading of splits, not stocks online trading in general, as you might expect from the title. If you look for a book about split trading, this one is all right. If you start stocks online trading, consider searching for another title.

1.0 out of 5 stars Deceiving Title of the book, December 5, 2004
This review is from: Trade Stocks Online (Wiley Online Trading for a Living) (Hardcover)
This is definitely NOT one of my favorite books about stocks. The title of the book is a little deceiving, the author talks a lot about option instead of stocks and half the book is about stock splits.

Chapters 1-4 are about general info, such as you must buy and sell to make money, don't hold for a long time. You must research the stock before purchase, EPS must increase every year. I didn't find anything in those chapters that I didn't already know.

Chapters 5-10 is all about stock splits and when to purchase the stock as well as when to sell. Once again, the author talks about the obvious; buy when you hear that stock is splitting and sell after the split before the after split dip.

Chapter 11 gets into more advanced trading techniques, the bull put spread. This is not something that I use or will use in my trading.

Chapter 12 is the concluding chapter
