Trading as a Business @ Tradestation World is more of the same general mush that is totally useless and has been rehashed ad infinitum.
Technical Analysis from A to Z is a good TA review from Equis@MetaStock site. It won't help you much, but you can at least sharpen up on technical jargon and indicators.
The best freebie I know is right here on this site under "Training" - I am not associated with anyone here, but this is a useful and to the point summary. I would highly recommend it as a starter.
Other than that you will have to shell out a few bucks. Hope that helps.

Quote from howardy2k:
What books do I need to read? Can you guys help me with a list of 5-10 books in order from beginner to advance level. If you own them and you believe it would help me, I would gladly pay for them.
Thanks
