and normally i suggest to my friend study that

Even though this book will not teach you the secrets of the forex market, I found it to be a fundamental block to my forex education.

I just purchased four books.

Reminiscences of a stock operator.
The Black Swan
Age of Turbulence
Fooled by Randomness

Steve Nison Education is great. There are hours of his videos online.
James Chen is a great technical educator, there are many of his videos online,
he also has published a book.

"How I made 2 million in the stock market" by Nickolas Darvas.
"Reminiscences of a stock operator" by Jesse Livermore.

Those two are the best for me.

Has anyone read Jarratt Davis' book "How to Trade a Currency Fund"?

http://www.amazon.com/How-Trade-Curr.../dp/1466279451

I wanted to know if it is any different from the materials he taught at ForexMentor. I couldn't find the digital version on internet.

Thank you guys, I've just ordered these four:
The Disciplined Trader
Trading in the Zone
Reminiscences of a Stock Operator
High probability trading

so many usefull information! thaks a lot! I've found what I was looking for

Be right; sit tight. The Livermore book is available free on the www.

"It never was my thinking that made the big money for me. It always was my sitting. Got that? My sitting tight! It is no trick at all to be right on the market. You always find lots of early bulls in bull markets and early bears in bear markets. I've known many men who were right at exactly the right time, and began buying or selling stocks when prices were at the very level which should show the greatest profit. And their experience invariably matched mine--that is, they made no real money out of it. Men who can both be right and sit tight are uncommon."

Steenbarger's books are good. You can get a lot free from his blog.

My top 5 books (trading system development):

1. Trade Your Way to Financial Freedom : Van K. Tharp..
2. Super Trader - Make Consistent Profits in Good and Bad Markets : Van K. Tharp.
3. Mechanical Trading Systems : Richard Weissman.
4. The Evaluation and Optimization of Trading Strategies : Robert Pardo.
5. High-Frequency Trading : Irene Aldridge.

It is strange that nobody indicate "The master swing trader" by Alan farley

https://www.amazon.com/Master-Swing-.../dp/0071363092

the first time I read it, I thing the author was crazy, but after years of practice, I like to come back to this book,
it adress stock market, but all the material apply to forex, one of the best and the most formative book I read...

I've read so many but for sure How I made 2 million in the stock market by Nichloas Darvas is a great read. Market Wizards and New Market Wizards are great as well but if you're looking for a book that will give you a one up on Forex trading these kind of books won't do. They definitely help with the physiology part of trading which is just as important but for the basics and depth needed to trade nothing beats "Daytrading the currency market by Kathy Lien"

If I had to start all over from knowing nothing I would want to start with this book. It gives clear simple and straight forward strategies, Technical and fundamental information and puts in it plain english. I've read it several times and will be reading it again shortly when I have time. Good luck guys!!!
