Best Trading Book You Have Ever Read?

[helpme_please]

“Principles” by Ray Dalio
The 17th richest man in the world (may have gone higher because of Bezos). And doesn’t trade like Warren Buffet, which is nice because almost none of us have the luxury
of trading the way Buffet does.
This is a heavier book. Very macro. Not recommended for the trader who has only put in less than a year of trading.

This book doesn't talk about trading.

"Secrets for profiting in bear and bull markets" by Stan Weinstein. It is a very old and meaningful book which tells the practical trading concepts and techniques in a very simple manner. It is easily understandable and good for aspiring traders.

I think the books from Mark Douglas are great.
So far these two are my favorite to read by that author

1. Trading in the zone
   
2. The disciplined trader

 

[MaccabiTrader]

Kind of shocked that the following weren't mentioned

1.Think & Trade Like a Champion: The Secrets, Rules & Blunt Truths of a Stock Market Wizard

2.Trade Like a Stock Market Wizard: How to Achieve Super Performance in Stocks in Any Market

3.Mindset Secrets for Winning: How to Bring Personal Power to Everything You Do

4.How to Make Money in Stocks: A Winning System in Good Times and Bad, Fourth Edition

Sorry, I tried it after someone else recommended posted it here about seven, eight years ago. Mostly filler examples with just a wma and a general rehash of the "stages" of stock movement. Not much else there even for a strategy focused book, just unorganized example filler, imo. For those still curious, there's a lengthy thread for whatever reasons on trade2win: (https://www.trade2win.com/threads/stan-weinsteins-stage-analysis.134944/)

For me, the best intro book I'd seen was "the ultimate trading guide" by Pruitt and Hill, and praised by Larry Williams.

...and praised by Larry Williams.

I'm not sure that's a plus.

I was buying them second hand from amazon then sending them internationally to www.1dollarscan.com to be made into pdfs in California but a package got lost. There is now a service in the U.K. https://www.digitisemybooks.co.uk/ , I will try that. Not every body can read on paper well. A pdf on a mini iPad is the best reading experience much better than kindle.

Didn't know this service existed. Might downsize my library, thanks for the tip.
