Consult it the next time you are deluged with a flurry of economic statistics. Your understanding certainly will be enhanced and your portfolio will likely be as well.”

The Age of Turbulence: Adventures in a New World By Alan Greenspan

2007-10-27T23:50:00.000+08:00

Book Description:

In the immediate aftermath of September 11, 2001, in his fourteenth year as Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, Alan Greenspan took part in a very quiet collective effort to ensure that America didn't experience an economic meltdown, taking the rest of the world with it. There was good reason to fear the worst: the stock market crash of October 1987, his first major crisis as Federal Reserve Chairman, coming just weeks after he assumed control, had come much closer than is even today generally known to freezing the financial system and triggering a genuine financial panic. But the most remarkable thing that happened to the economy after 9/11 was...nothing. What in an earlier day would have meant a crippling shock to the system was absorbed astonishingly quickly.

After 9/11 Alan Greenspan knew, if he needed any further reinforcement, that we're living in a new world - the world of a global capitalist economy that is vastly more flexible, resilient, open, self-directing, and fast-changing than it was even 20 years ago. It's a world that presents us with enormous new possibilities but also enormous new challenges. The Age of Turbulence is Alan Greenspan's incomparable reckoning with the nature of this new world - how we got here, what we're living through, and what lies over the horizon, for good and for ill-channeled through his own experiences working in the command room of the global economy for longer and with greater effect than any other single living figure. He begins his account on that September 11th morning, but then leaps back to his childhood, and follows the arc of his remarkable life's journey through to his more than 18-year tenure as Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, from 1987 to 2006, during a time of transforming change.

Alan Greenspan shares the story of his life first simply with an eye toward doing justice to the extraordinary amount of history he has experienced and shaped. But his other goal is to draw readers along the same learning curve he followed, so they accrue a grasp of his own understanding of the underlying dynamics that drive world events. In the second half of the book, having brought us to the present and armed us with the conceptual tools to follow him forward, Dr. Greenspan embarks on a magnificent tour de horizon of the global economy. He reveals the universals of economic growth, delves into the specific facts on the ground in each of the major countries and regions of the world, and explains what the trend-lines of globalization are from here. The distillation of a life's worth of wisdom and insight into an elegant expression of a coherent worldview, The Age of Turbulence will stand as Alan Greenspan's personal and intellectual legacy.

Beyond Technical Analysis: How to Develop and Implement a Winning Trading System

by Tushar S. Chande

"Nothing is easier than developing a trading system by the usual process of trial and terror..."

Unique book/disk package helps traders develop and forward-test a high-performance trading system.

In trading, a winning system is everything. Without a systematized methodology on which to base their actions, traders quickly succumb to market fear and confusion and watch helplessly as precious profits vanish. And while it is theoretically possible to buy a canned trading system, most experts agree that the best system is proprietary to each traderâ€”developed, implemented, and tested by the individual to suit his or her exact requirements.

In this book/software package, acclaimed technical trading system developer Tushar Chande shows traders how to develop a winning trading system, and how to test its future performance through computer simulation. The result? Users can paper trade their personal trading system before using it in the real world, accurately estimating how well they can cope with the day-to-day pressures of implementing the system when their capital is at risk and emotions are involved. Disk 1 provides a program enabling users to write a trade plan, create orders, rate their confidence for specific trades, and run P & L statements. Disk 2 is a demo disk for $ecure Trade Management Software.

A step-by-step guide to creating trading systems for individual trading beliefs and profit objectives. Written to accommodate both the beginner and the expert, with an overview of strategies, testing techniques and technical analysis, plus an introduction to the author's Chande Comfort Zone method.

Rocket Science for Traders: Digital Signal Processing Applications 2001-07

2007-07-30T22:40:00.000+08:00

Predict the future more accurately in today's difficult trading times The Holy Grail of trading is knowing what the markets will do next. Technical analysis is the art of predicting the market based on tested systems.

Some systems work well when markets are "trending," and some work well when they are "cycling," going neither up nor down, but sideways. In Trading with Signal Analysis, noted technical analyst John Ehlers applies his engineering expertise to develop techniques that predict the future more accurately in these times that are otherwise so difficult to trade.

Since cycles and trends exist in every time horizon, these methods are useful even in the strongest bull--or bear--market. John F. Ehlers (Goleta, CA) speaks internationally on the subject of cycles in the market and has expanded the scope of his contributions to technical analysis through the application of scientific digital signal processing techniques.

The Art of Seduction

2007-07-10T00:37:00.000+08:00

Summary:

This mesmerizing exploration of the most subtle, elusive, and effective form of power is a masterful analysis of civilization's greatest seducers, from Cleopatra to JFK, as well as the classic literature of seduction from Freud to Kierkegaard and Ovid to Casanova. Robert Greene once again identifies the rules of a timeless, amoral game and explores how to cast a spell, break down resistance, and, ultimately, compel a target to surrender. Presenting the timeless profiles of each type of seducer and the twenty-four maneuvers that will guide you step by step in the game of seduction, The Art of Seduction is an indispensable primer of persuasion that reveals the timeless power of this age-old art.

The Art Of Seduction is a trip through history, crossing shores and lands, spanning time. You will encounter the legendary seducers from Casonova to Marilyn Monroe , study the guile of the aristrocracy, live the scandals that rocked the nobility , watch Emperors collapse to passion, observe the brat behind the coy and learn from the helplessness of contemporary society stalwarts. And all along learn the tricks and the fallacies of the game.

The book is divided into two portions - the Seducers and the Seduction. The first covers the various identies of the Seducer. The second deals with the actual game. Greene's opens each chapter with anecdotes and tales of passion and powerplay. Each leads to observations, parables are added to buttress the claim and concludes with a sound law.

Greene writes deceptively plain but with flair - in the style of a classical Shakesperean play, each paragraph playing its role. The atmosphere is immersive, you can almost hear the striking Violins punctuating each paragraph in the back of your mind. While the meat are the methods and you can plough through the book just for them, the captivating rich gravy are the timeless anecdotes of seduction and flirting throughout.

Pit Bull: Lessons from Wall Street's Champion Day Trader

2007-06-30T21:23:00.001+08:00

Welcome to the world of Martin "Buzzy" Schwartz, Champion Trader--the man whose nerves of steel and killer instinct in the canyons of Wall Street earned him the well-deserved name "Pit Bull." This is the true story of how Schwartz became the best of the best, of the people and places he discovered along the way and of the trader's tricks and techniques he used to make his millions.

Buzzy Schwartz must be considered one of the greatest traders of our time and this book is more of an autobiography than a trading manual. He never divulges his trading methodology nor how he turned from being a mediocre break even trader to the star he became.

He references various indicators he uses but with no explanations and curiously credits Terry Laundry's T theory for his turnaround because " it went back to who I was as a person ". The T Theory is then left to you to figure out.

The best thing I can say about his methodology is that it is uniquely his. All of us need to find what best fits our trading style and apply it...there is no one size fits all in trading.

Towards the end of the book it becomes very clear that Buzzy has become weary of the toll that trading has taken on his life ( he wound up in the hospital and almost died) yet still can't seem to get the trading bug out of his system ( he places a trade while in the doctors office). All in all one of my favorite books, not for its trading methods but for its entertainment value.

Along with his expert advice, McDonald presents four investing paradoxes that will help investors make smarter decisions now and predict where the market is heading, using his proven theories.

Jim Cramer's Real Money: Sane Investing in an Insane World

2007-06-23T16:11:00.000+08:00

BOOK DESCRIPTIONS

How do we find hot stocks without getting burned? How do we fatten our portfolios and stay financially healthy? Former hedge-fund manager and longtime Wall Street commentator Jim Cramer explains how to invest wisely in chaotic times, and he does so in plain English in a style that is as much fun as investing is -- or should be, when it's done right.

For starters, Cramer recommends devoting a portion of your assets to speculation. Everyone wants to find the big winners that can bring outsized gains, and Cramer explains how to allocate your portfolio so that you can afford to take this kind of risk wisely. He explains why "buy and hold" is a losing philosophy: For Cramer, it's "buy and homework." If you can't spend an hour a week researching each of your stocks, then you should hand off your portfolio to a mutual fund -- and Cramer identifies the very few mutual funds that he'd recommend.

Cramer reveals his Ten Commandments of Trading (Commandment #5: Tips are for waiters). He explains why he's not afraid to compare investing to gambling (and tells you which book on gambling you should read to become a better investor). He discloses his Twenty-Five Rules of Investing (Rule #4: Look for broken stocks, not broken companies).

Cramer shows how to compare stock prices in a way that you can understand, how to spot market tops and bottoms, how to know when to sell, how to rotate among cyclical stocks to catch the big moves, and much more. Jim Cramer's Real Money is filled with insider advice that really works, information that Cramer himself used to make millions during his fourteen-year career on Wall Street.

Written in Cramer's distinctive turbocharged style, this is every investor's guide to what you really must know to make big money in the stock market.

Swift Trader: Perfecting the Art of Day Trading
By Charles Kim
Prentice Hall

Charles Kim works at Toronto day trading firm Swift Trade where he teaches wannabe day traders how to do it. A very bright guy and a nationally quoted teacher of day trading techniques, he has put his thoughts together in this engaging, informative how to do it manual.

For those who think that riches will descend from the heavens or, more accurately, from NASDAQ level II screens, Swift Trader is a healthy dose of reality. Fear, with reason, is part of the exercise. Mr. Kim discusses clandestine activity by some traders and days when markets go mad. As well, he covers the usual subjects of how to read screens, which networks to use and so on, but then he adds advice that one tends not to see in other guides.

"Avoid getting in or out of the market too often... Losses - not profits - make the trader studious... Beware of trying to pick tops or bottoms." And so on. Some of this is fortune cookie philosophy, some of this advice is worth its weight in gold. For the investor who is thinking of getting into day trading, this is as gentle, as intelligent a guide as there is on the market. Swift Trader doesn't try to turn readers into financial gunslingers; rather, it offers careful cultivation of the trading mind. For a Canadian who wants to play volatility, one cannot recommend a better guide.

Confessions of a Street Addict

2007-06-15T22:15:00.000+08:00

Book Description:

Everyone on Wall Street knows Jim Cramer, and Cramer knows Wall Street better than anyone. In the most candid and outrageous look at Wall Street since Liar's Poker, Cramer, co-founder of TheStreet.com, radio and television commentator, and for years a premier money manager, takes readers on the wild ride that is Wall Street -- revealing how the game is played, who breaks the rules, and who gets hurt.

Confessions of a Street Addict takes us from Cramer's roots in the middle-class Philadelphia suburbs to Harvard, where he began managing money, and then to Goldman Sachs, where he went into business with his wife -- Karen, the "Trading Goddess" -- as his partner. He brilliantly describes the life of a money manager: the frenetic pace, the constant pressure to outperform the market and other fund managers, and the sharklike attacks fund managers make as they circle a fund perceived to be in trouble.

Throughout the book Cramer is characteristically outspoken, offering his hard-won insights about the market and everyone in it, himself included. There has never been a more eloquent market insider than Cramer, nor a more high-octane book about Wall Street.
