What a great surprise! Inspired by the very bests in the field. It's so good to see R-Multiples in a book.

"You can wear beliefs as if they were a hat". What an useful belief!

A good book with a lot of good, important advises, tips and knowledge from an expert in the field

The author has many years of successful experience of his own, and here he is to share his experience with the readers who wish for the similar success.

His advises are not “just do it and you will be successful like I have”, but “you should do it right, and I'm telling you how to do it right.” I’m hundred-percent with him on this since “just doing it” doesn’t guarantee you the same success as the author's.

The author insists that you must have belief in yourself, but you better not misunderstand what the “belief” the author keeps on emphasizing really means. He makes it clear that "that belief" requires discipline and hard work: Belief and confidence come from your expertise based on your wide and deep knowledge, and the knowledge comes from enough experience and hard work to acquire it.

“Once you have awareness of your current beliefs, the next step is to gain knowledge of a new set of beliefs: the beliefs of top traders.”
Sam Eder, “The Consistent Trader: How to Build a Winning Trading System, Master Your Psychology, and Earn Consistent Profits in the Forex Market”, Kindle Ed. (TCK Publishing, 2017), Kindle Location 245.
This is my understanding that the first belief is your goal that you really wanna start this, and once you start you must have the second beliefs called the knowledge from hard work and effort to make your goal and dream come true.

The author is very clear how tough the hard work could be in the same page: “Simply do your best, and realize that resistance and pain are signs you are growing.”
Sam Eder, “The Consistent Trader: How to Build a Winning Trading System, Master Your Psychology, and Earn Consistent Profits in the Forex Market”, Kindle Ed. (TCK Publishing, 2017), Kindle Location 245.

Therefore, if you misunderstand the “belief” you are wrong off the beginning heading for a foreseeable failure.

Certainly this book must be aiming very specific and limited readers with any clear goal in this field. I don’t think anyone who got no knowledge or any certain goal in this discipline should ever try this based on sheer belief if the belief is not from good enough knowledge, but from luck, which is now gambling then. And that’s why the author insists that the readers should read this book thoroughly without skimming as many times as possible in order to gain that knowledge or “tips” that the author’s gonna provide to you.

And once you start this, you must stick with this book and practice what you learn from it no matter how unsatisfying the initial results turn out.

“Top leaders and traders share some common traits. In particular, they have a high degree of emotional intelligence and are engaged in self-study. They are able to formulate a plan that is right for them or their organization and stick to it with rigid discipline and confidence. Furthermore, when facts change and the plan needs adjusting, they are able to recognize this and adapt… Basically, the better you are at controlling your emotions in the market, the more successful you will be. If you are here for the thrill of it, then you are unlikely to remain consistent over the long-term.”
Sam Eder, “The Consistent Trader: How to Build a Winning Trading System, Master Your Psychology, and Earn Consistent Profits in the Forex Market”, Kindle Ed. (TCK Publishing, 2017), Kindle Location 291.

It is the ultimate-duh basics, but we often forget it. The author reminds the readers that it’s not gonna be easy for the beginners; it takes long time and patience with discipline, so if you expect to learn to win a lot of money right away just by reading this book once, you’ve misunderstood the author’s intention and are likely to do it wrong after all.

A comment about the book for the author: I find no clear indication of FX in the cover. The “FX part” in the subtitle must appeal more than the title “Consistent Trader”, so the readers who’ve got certain interest in it can find this book easier. I think "Consistent FX Trader" is a better title. Plus it’s better if FX or Forex is plainly written Foreign Exchange at least once in the beginning of the book because there are many beginning trader wanna-bes who don’t recognize FX as Foreign Exchange.

All in all it’s fairly a good book with a lot of good, important advises, tips and knowledge from an expert in the field.

This book almost flew under my radar but I'm glad I tried the Sample, and I later bought the book. Although it states that it is a book about Forex, the method and psychology can be used in any trading environment. The greatest value here are the chapters on the psychology of trading and how that is the key to consistently successful trading. These are worth the price of the book alone.

Well worth reading.
