“Authored by a man of great character, this book is not only fascinating and innovative in the financial realm, but the spirit of his mantra infuses itself throughout: Life is not about what we acquire, rather what we become.”-Stephen R. Covey, author, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and The 8th Habit: From Effectiveness to Greatness

“Jared's book on Forex trading is a must for both seasoned and beginning traders of Forex. His personal litmus test was particularly enjoyable as it encompasses the most important thing a trader faces. That is, himself. The book is filled with excellent descriptions, trends, buy and sell zones and how to handle the fundamental events. His description of the Fibonacci sequence of numbers and how it relates to nature will be enjoyable to all readers. This book should be in every trader's library.”-Larry Pesavento

1.0 out of 5 stars Do not pay for his promotion, May 2, 2007
It has nothing new about Forex trading or even trading in general, it has some technical analysis (you can find it in any TA book). Misleading the newbies by showing some good looking trades using the Moving averages and "his " Oscillator (I am not sure what is so special about it), giving false impression that this what you will get if you follow him (going to his institution). The 5 star reviews do not give a good reason to buy the book only saying you must buy it (may be they forget to say WHY to buy it). So they have no merits, except what they are saying repeatedly that the author is an expert, who mentored thousands of traders. He also is saying that about himself (more than once) in the book. If you want to know about technical analysis for forex or stocks -which is the same- you can check Jon Murphy, Schwager, or J. Magee.... books
If you are looking for psychology of trading go for Mark Douglas or others. The 200 pages of shallow information could be obtained - for free - from the Internet or any basic trading book. Save your money. Check the book first before you buy it. Do not believe the "must read" recommendations for no good reason. Because there is nothing useful in the book. Let him pay for his promotion

1.0 out of 5 stars Do not believe the "4" or "5" Star Hype, July 22, 2007
As a former insider at MTI, I can attest to the previous "1" star ratings and support the same with facts. This author's primary business is in education; however, this author doesn't even understand the product of sums. This book is nothing more than an extended table of contents coupled with an exorbitant number of references to his business. The decision to buy this text should be one of prudence. Please review the book physically before buying.

The author is preying on the "ignorant" public that is eager to trade. I would not put is past this author to instruct his own employees/colleagues/friends to write positive reviews (FxAngel, R. Enright).

A few good text recommendations are from CTrader's review that I agree with:
"If you want to know about technical analysis for forex or stocks -which is the same- you can check Jon Murphy, Schwager, or J. Magee.... books
If you are looking for psychology of trading go for Mark Douglas or others."

1.0 out of 5 stars hopeless, May 31, 2007
I have to agree with Ctrader (see below, 1 star).
It is unbelievable that a book like that could be published in 2007. There is absolutely nothing new at all. The usage of the patterns is not even well described. The usable content is very basic and limited. It is full of personal experiences or allusion to other stories. Full of advertisement for his MTI.
It does not deliver what is written on the front cover. "The rules for turning patterns into profit" where is that? The title: "The 10 essentials..." What are these 10 things exactly?

I bought that book thanks to the 5 star reviews below (before the 1 star review from Ctrader) since I cannot have a look to books where I live...
The 5 star reviews giving no valuable information seems to bloom very easily and fast for this book!
