Apparently prior link was not included. However, the best book on trading, including psychology is:
Reminiscences of a Stock Operator

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reminiscences_of_a_Stock_Operator

Even after my first reading, more than 40 years ago, I still flip through quotes I physically typed on index cards. Yes, pre computers.

Thank you for adding. I was more into forex related books lately. But I will read this one for sure.

From my experience you should understand what psychology the market try to operate on you the retail trader. Reading Trading in the zone explain human psychology weakness, the market try to take advantage from those weakness. The context of reading trading psychology books should "what the market want me to think, to feal" especially when price condition are unclear.

Haha! Practical lessons are much better I guess.

I don’t want to argue here. It is just a matter of perspective. But speaking for myself, trading is not a gamble for me.

The purpose of understanding trading psychology is to avoid emotional trading. And managing our emotions while trading is very important in my opinion. And I personally think that no book will ever be useless as long as one can learn something new from them.

Market Mind Games if you're actually serious about this topic. Shull is the expert in the field.
