Even a helpful book like his short selling book is not worth much, in a bull marke//uptrending market,,especially since 2014 is about 50% gone.Sell in may + go away is not a prediction, nor is a 200 dma or 50 dma.The latter moving avereages were explained/pictured/charted in Williqm O Nelll's books, maybe not helpful @ all to some seminar.

To reiterate:

As to what it's worth in 2014, I have no idea. As I said, I hadn't looked at it in decades, and I haven't traded stocks in 15yrs. If you trade stocks, it may be worth as much to you now as it was to me back then.

OK. I got the point (can't find now from which post; maybe it was in another thread) that I do not need to buy the whole upsell and all from O'Neil, his basic book is enough.

The big question is - which one of these two fairly similar titles?

2010 - http://www.amazon.com/Money-Stocks-Complete-Investing-System/dp/0071752110

I suggest this one: http://www.amazon.com/Make-Money-St...2&sr=1-1&keywords=How+to+Make+Money+in+Stocks

I haven't read them all, but, generally speaking, the older the edition, the less hustle. And you can pick this up for a penny.

The first edition is also available, but costs $5+ used.

Or you can just check them out of your library.

You can't get rich off of information that is available to everyone, not quickly at the least...

Depends on what one does with it. Price quotes are available to everyone, yet there's no lack of traders who insist on going short in an uptrending market and long in a down.
