Superb Trading Book!
I started to read this book with little expectation. I received none indication, I didn’t know the author. But as I devouring the chapters I love it more and more.
Author has an excellent commodity understanding and she is never tired to make it clear about risks of commodity trading (and trading in general). Her counselings about not use stop-loss order and instead look for other protective alternatives is amazing!
I recommend this book for any person with a intermediate trading knowledge. You will not regret!

Must read for anyone trading commodities
I wish I had read this book few years ago to avoid some big mistakes during my trade career. Carley Garner doesn’t present any magical formula to make easy money, instead she brings her experience to an easy to read book. I love it!

Very basic
Also not very well structured or objective. Could read all the good information out of a couple of webpages. For the beginner trader would only recommend a couple of chapters.

I would give this to my imaginary 11 year old child who has just discovered a new passion for commodities after learning about the robber barons in school. Otherwise, it’s quite elementary and focuses primarily on retail strategies; not very useful for institutional readers.

Un libro escrito "muy a la ligera", parecen más las notas de alguna presentación o un curso. Sirve, creo yo, como material de apoyo, pero no de referencia.
