What's a good and rare trading book?

Other than Toby Crabel's material are there other good or fantastic books that are now rare to find?

Someone from a previous thread mentioned a book entitled, "The Big Hitters", by Kevin Koy.

I would love to find a copy of that book.

Oh yeah!?

I got the original tablets of the Ten Commandments written by the very finger of God, but I ain't selling either.

Isn't amazing how may people have published books on "The Secrets of Successful Trading?"

The moment someone goes public with a "secret" trading strategy, the only secret is where the author is going to spend the money from the book sales.

You might want to take a look at Stock Trading Wizard: Advanced Short Term Trading Strategies by Tony Oz

It's no longer in print and looks like it's going to become a classic.

Hope i got his name right, maybe it is sam weinstein. I still think this is the best book on how markets act.

I was a loser trader for many years, this book helped me out big time. Its so damn simple too.

Basically a stock goes down, till it don't go down no more. Then it goes sideways. Then it goes up. Works for all time periods too, short term, long term, intra day. Also basic support resistance and breakout.

Learn this, and 3/4's the battle is won.
