This is very basic book which is good for begginers, this will help you understand basic techniques of daily trading. The reason why I have rated 3 stars is, it only helps you understand what the trading platform is, but you can't make money just by reading books and applying techniques as per author, it just gives a glimpse of trading for beginners. Author says you can make money in daily trades if followed techniques, and by being disciplined throughout the trading hours, it might work in books but in reality daily trades doesn't help to make money, and can't maintain consistency, soon you will lose entire capital despite being disciplined and following techniques. So this is d book helps you understand what d trading platform is in basic, that's it. Just think logically, if anyone wud have been making money with consistency in daily trades, they wud have richest person in INDIA.

Disclaimer: I have very little experience in Intraday trading as of writing this review. Hence, I will not comment on the effectiveness of the techniques mentioned in this book.
The book, I felt, lies in the sweet spot for those who have preliminary knowledge about market jargons, but have no clue as to how to go about day trading. It will help you grasp the basics of technical analysis, and develop an eye for understanding trends and ranges in charts, all the while, emphasizing on the simplicity of the process. The author writes with a certain amount of flair, inspired by bollywood masala, which, seemingly overly casual, is fun to read without compromising on any technical quality.
In short, if you are new to trading, and want to know how to get started on D-Street, I highly recommend this book.

The book is good for beginners. Won't take you through lessons in expertise. But does a good job for the novice like me who want to understand the fundamentals of intraday trading. What works for him may eventually work for us too if we follow the approach that he suggests. Most important part is we keep on upgrading ourselves, that's what he focuses on in this book.

A book for dummies covering some vital and must-read information about intraday trading. I found some chapters to be really easy to comprehend, while certain chapters need to be read twice or thrice to be understood. The book is more like a reference material rather than a one time read.

I really learnt a lot about intraday trading from this book & how to manage the risk and all stuff.
I think I may read it again some time later after gaining some more insights of market. But this book is for everyone who is starting with intraday or thinking about it.

Very good book for beginners and intermediates on intraday trading. Covers many examples through charts, witty one-liners and dialogues and pictures from famous Bollywood movies.
R.I.P Mr. Ashwani Gujral, who was deeply and passionately involved in trading the markets.

Read chapters of 1st half and skimmed 2nd half chapters since they're mostly for beginners and not much interested in news based or sideways trading.
Basics only nothing new.
Even though asked us to read the all the details given in the chart, the chart pics are very poor 😒🤷.

Another masterpiece from Ashwani.
If you want to get a gist of how to day trade, then study it "Once" not "read", you have to study it.
If you want to understand it and use it then increase your position size in learning it by highest possible level.
Amazing work.

But Intraday is always a dangerous game and not for employee who is working and investing. Its good for Trader who dont have any other works.

I will come back and update this review when i actually make money.
Edit:
It's difficult to make money in this. I'll stick to my conventional job.
