    This is a short and sweet intro to day trading. It covers all the important points and is very easy to listen to.

    intelligent author describes in conscience detail how to effectively develop a trading strategy. had to listen several times to fully understand what was being said, obviously not for beginners as requires a good deal of existing knowledge to understand content. but definitely recommend for traders.

    worthwhile

    I have the hard copy of this book, which has a lot more explanation of the key points with charts and tables and so on. However, this version explains the psychology behind how markets work and the opportunities that arise in a more general way that is very useful to recap the knowledge in the book version. Also, tables of information work very badly in audible books, as they are designed to be glanced at to see patterns rather than spelled out in grinding detail as they are in some other technical audio books, so omitting them and using explanatory words instead is helpful. Although short, the information is very dense so it merits re-listening, and is reasonable value. Alexander Elder is one of the few people whose trading books are worth reading, mainly because he is an actual trader, not a theorist.

    Good solid trading psychology information.

    I have found this audiobook to be straight to the point and easy to understand. It really opened my eyes to the world of trading for a living. I highly recommend this audiobook.
