Books

i'm interesting in finding 2 types of books and was wondering if anyone could suggest any good ones. First, i am looking for a good book on trading psychology..., and another book that teaches the market economy and how it relates to trading... for example, how to understand current events, market conditions, what a certain housing number, consumer report, interest rate hike might do to the overall market.... i was wondering if there would be a book that helps you understand the economy/current events and how they correlates to trading and the stock market....... so i can have a better understanding of what might affect the market in a certain way and gain a better understanding of how the market is going to react.

The Secrets of Economic Indicators: Hidden Clues to Future Economic Trends and Investment Opportunities
 
normally i wouldn't have taken advice coming from "tank abbot" but damn, that second book you listed sounds real good for what i want to know.

you watch any Pride Fighting Championships?
 
The best book, no exceptions, is Bill O'Neill's "How to make money in the stockmarket"...

O'Neill, unlike many writers, actually trades, holds a NYSE seat, publishes a newspaper SOLELY on stocks, Investor Business Daily, IBD....

When you see people talking about a group being strong...that grouping is published by IBD....

O'Neill also, most importantly, advises a very large number of institutional investors regarding market conditions....

He explains how fundamental and technical aspects work together to identify stocks that are going to increase in value...

Just a good basic understanding of how the market works on a day to day

I say both "Trading in The Zone" and "Mind Over Markets" are among the top of my of trading books. I also like Steenbarger's new book "Enhancing Trader Performance".
