TRADING FOR A LIVNG
by Dr Alexander Elder
New hardcover book published by John Wiley & Sons
1993, 288 pages.
You have just taken a big step away from the crowd of amateurs. By opening Trading
for a Living, you’ve resolved to become a successful trader. Dr. Alexander
Elder is a professional trader, a world-class expert in technical analysis, and
a practicing psychiatrist. He believes that successful trading is based on three
M’s: Mind, Method, and Money. First, you will see that the key to winning is
inside your Mind. You will find out how to develop discipline and how to avoid
the traps of emotional trading. Second, you will learn how to find good trades
by using charts, computerized indicators, and other tools. You will discover how
to combine several analytic Methods into a powerful trading system. Finally, you
will learn how to manage Money in your trading account. The rules for limiting
risks are as vital to a trader as a safety net is to a high-wire walker. With
this book, you are on your way to mastering a new way of trading stocks,
futures, currencies, and options. Dr. Alexander Elder helps you embark on an
intense pursuit—trading for a living.
From the Back Cover
Successful trading is based on three M’s: Mind, Method, and Money. Trading for
a Living helps you master all of those three areas:
- How to become a cool, calm, and collected trader
- How to profit from reading the behavior of the market crowd
- How to use a computer to find good trades
- How to develop a powerful trading system
- How to find the trades with the best odds of success
- How to find entry and exit points, set stops, and take profits
Trading for a Living helps you discipline your Mind, shows you the
Methods for trading the markets, and shows you how to manage Money in your
trading accounts so that no string of losses can kick you out of the game. To
help you profit even more from the ideas in Trading for a Living, look
for the companion volume—Study Guide for Trading for a Living. It asks
over 200 multiple-choice questions, with answers and 11 rating scales for
sharpening your trading skills. For example: Question Markets rise when
- there are more buyers than sellers
- buyers are more aggressive than sellers
- sellers are afraid and demand a premium
- more shares or contracts are bought than sold
- I and II
- II and III
- II and IV
- III and IV
Answer B. II and III. Every change in price reflects what happens in the battle
between bulls and bears. Markets rise when bulls feel more strongly than bears.
They rally when buyers are confident and sellers demand a premium for
participating in the game that is going against them. There is a buyer and a
seller behind every transaction. The number of stocks or futures bought and sold
is equal by definition.
