This was a great book for me for where I was in my trading journey. I knew about 80% of it but it helped me confirm what I knew and that gives me the confidence to trade. It’s taken me over a year and several books to where I am now so I would definitely recommend this book but make sure you know about investing, candle charts and technical analysis before you read this.
