From the Inside Flap
Preface"Private information is practically the source of every large modern fortune."—Oscar Wilde
There can scarcely be an individual in the industrialized world that does not have, or at least know someone who has, an online trading account. With online trading moving at internet speed, this book addresses and provides insight into the major issues of online trading from the perspective of an author who has been trading since the age of twelve and trading online for six years.
What is the best way to trade online in terms of choosing brokers, getting prices, doing fundamental and technical analysis, getting stock picks, and from the point of view of every other major online trading issue?
Find out not just which are the best online trading sites, but which are the hidden gems and—most importantly—how I use them in my trading to make money.
And how do I get profitable trading ideas without spending my life in front of a PC?
This second edition of the massively successful Trading Online probably differs from the first by about 70-80 percent. Indeed it could have been a wholly new book, but we could not then have used the excellent title or the 'brand awareness' for this edition. Most people will not recognize it as the same book; think of Windows 3.1 and Windows 2000, or young Elvis and old Elvis—it's that different. The focus has shifted to how to use the net to make online trading profits—it is more analytic; it is detailed rather than descriptive.The trading online revolution
'Cost of online share deals falls,' 'Investors get live to attactions of internet groups,' 'New electronic wizardry in the marketplace,' 'E-commerce booms,' 'Future at your fingertips.' These are just some recent headlines about internet trading and investing.
What's all the fuss about?
Well, imagine trading and investing without having to speak to a broker, no more scouring newspapers, jornals and tip-sheets or plotting charts or updating portfolios by hand. No more rummaging for opinion and analysis. No more wishing there were someone you could bounce ideas off or wondering if you have missed some latebreaking pertinent information. Instead, imagine everything available on your desk from one morning to the next—up-to-the-minute, real-time, all the time.
Would it be a quicker, cheaper, easier and more profitable way to trade and invest? You better believe it! It will become as common as having a bank account or a mortgage.Why you need to read this book
To avoid being overwhelmed by the information, you need clear, simple 'how-to' directions to quickly finding the type of information YOU need, and then managing it effectively for profit as well as showing you how to use it best. The competitive advantage that the internet offers will be rapidly eroded without such an efficient professional approach.
Without information, at best you will waste hours tied up in the net jungle; at worst you will lose money. After all, access to a law library does not make you a lawyer any more than access to the latest financial information makes you a profitable trader. You need the guidance of someone who has been there, done that and done it profitably. Introducing Trading Online.One final reason to get into online trading—have a look at the following graph. Those are the potential gains that await the online trader—but only the skilled, knowledgeable one.
