Id bring that book with me that has my rock hammer hidden in it.

Just like Shawshank Redemption.
It took Andy 20 years to dig his way through (just watched it last night lol), Better to hide a magnum rather than a rock hammer ...

After reading countless books with reference to trading ,i would say i gained some grounding ,but certainly not a breakthrough.

the book for me which was the difference in my trading is jesse livermore,reminiscence of a stock trader,that i believe, if one has done the ground work ,brings everything together,everything you need is in that book.
regards

Exactly.
On the other side in every book one may get some little good stuff
and increase your good knowledge. For example from reading "Trading for Living" by Alexander Elder I got a little bit really good stuff for myself.
It depends what you are looking for.

It is easy to analyze what is on the left side of a chart but who can show his analysis on the right side?

But as for me, reading of books is a waste of time and big frustration.
On the other hand, when you have $100-200M in your pocket and you done with money, why not take you time and write something, not for money, but to tell everyone how cool you are.

Write this done: Nobody does things for others in this world. Everything we do - we do for ourselves!!!

100% totally agree with you here.

Ironically, even by helping others with are actually doing it "selfishly" because it is us who wants to feel "better" for having helped.

Give and you shall receive.

I would love to help people in third world countries become sustainable, none of this food giving BS, but teach them how to becomes independent by themselves.

meh!

You guys have turned around the cause and effect. Many people do things to help others simply because it's the right thing to do, not because we know it'll make us feel good. Feeling good is simply the effect, not the cause for our helpful behavior.

Let’s say you have been kidnapped by same very bad people. This people stumble upon forexfactory and they see all this systems and “from one dollar to a million” treads and they get a brilliant idea, let get a forex trader to trade our drug money! And for some reason, they chose you! The only problem is that you know how to press buy and sell and how metatrader works! Obviously you can’t say that you do not know how to trade because they will probably kill you. So you say that you need books and for same reason they say that you only going to get...

Learning on the job is best way to make it. No book could do, but for me: Master the Market was worth a read
