With eight college degrees and a great deal of success in the early days of day trading I was sadly disappointed in the usefulness of the book. Largely repetitive, the authors fail to deal with the basics that would enable morepeople to approach day trading in the smart fashion.

I am a customer of Broadway Trading (Friedfertig’s brokerage firm) and have taken the course offered through Tradersedge.net (West’s firm). I got my start by reading this book and I can tell you first hand these two know their stuff. I witness on a daily basis hundreds of individuals including myself make money using the information introduced in this book. Friedfertig and West are not only two very succesful traders who have and do make great livings trading but have taught hundreds to do the same. The majority of their customers make money, with many of the best making millions a fact never mention or bragged about anywhere. (read their second book Electronic Day Traders Secrets’, a book of interviews with their best traders). Anyone who disliked this book falls into one of two categories not serious about day trading for a living or just out to slander a competitor. Don’t be misled, this book is well worth the read.

I plotted out the expectation of gain for different markets with different ratios of gainers versus losers and it fits almost perfectly with the numbers given in your chapter on random markets. How did you arrive at your numbers? Was it theoretically derived or experimentally observed? You mentioned both. Very impressive. It seems you have a very powerful way of measuring trading profits in any type of market against the expectation in an efficient random market. Congratulaions, it is something new and we are writing some trading programs and neural nets based on your work. However, we don’t intend to publish our results. They are being patented. How come you published this analysis? I guess you figured no one would figure it out without graphs or diagrams. You were almost right.
