One Response to “Small Stocks for Big Profits: Generate Spectacular Returns by Investing in Up-and-Coming Companies”

  Till now, my experience with trading books were such:

  1) If book was written about FA (fundamental analysis), it totally ignored then anything else, what is outside this topic – no market timing, money management, risk management, seasonality and psychology topics were covered
  
  2) If it was TA book – it were laughing on all fundamentalists waving from every page that P/E ratios are losers choice, and let’s draw the trendlines and search for the head and shoulders, and we should not care, what’s the symbol under this graph. Such book authors are able to find head and shoulders on cardiogram and say, hey, this guy is gonna die, see his pattern,
  
  3) Those few FA & TA books i have, then or were poorly covering both, or were concentrating too much on other.
  
  4) Now, this book covers:

  - FA – as much as you really need, and do not tries make a CPA from you
  
  - TA – in a way which does not looks like a alchemy or astrology – author does a job for us telling which patterns and things are really worth to look,
  
  - Seasonality, and not just “sell in may and get back in october”, or revealing a “secret” about Santa rally, but seasonality in such micro level as for day of weeks – like if friday is up then monday morning is down and so on – a lot of such cyclicals to consider
  
  - Psychology topics are covered
  
  - MM – money management, and what is most important – not just when you need to buy, but also when you need to sell. Most FA books i have lacks this – they will tell you when to buy, but when to sell, will cite the mr. Buffet with his “my favorite time frame is “forever”.
  
  - much other things.

  What I think was not covered in the book is the position sizing – but that is a topic perfectly explained in any of Van Tharp books – like Trade Your Way to Financial Freedom

  I believe combination of those 2 books is a winning combination
