Favorite author in Bollinger Capital Management library is Jack Schwager.

All 3 top trader [Jack Schwager ] & tek anaylsis book are amoung the most useful.

Had to use magnifying glasses to see Schwager name on cover of Active Trader.

Nice lcd set up. That's my ideal trading station. 4 lcd in a stand and a solitaire one just with the trading platform.
But DUuuuDE... How can you focus in your monitors against the window light ? That's harmful to your eyes.
Be careful.

Hi Market Surfer,

Based on your list I think you might enjoy, "The Way of the Warrior Trader" by Richard McCall. It truly helps a trader prepare for the market each day psychologically and emotionally. McCall is a psychologist/martial arts instructor/trader who presents excellent ideas in an easy to read fashion. Cya.
