A must read for futures beginners

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I've read many futures trading books and I think this is "the" best book for beginners. The language is easy to understand and the author explained things step by step in a very organized matter. If you ever consider learning about futures, this is the book you have to read. I still use it as reference and it's one of my favorite books.

Good Stuff

Thank you Todd Lofton. I cannot tell you how relieved I was when I read your book. Having to learn an awful lot about futures trading for a new job fairly quickly, this book was a godsend. I first learned about it from a "strong buy" recommendation at tradingmarkets.com. Between the two, I have made my boss a very happy camper.

Thanks

I am a laid back reader and I prefer to read a book like a novel. Especially when I do nto know anything about a subject. This is a book for me . I would like to thank the author for his helpful samples with the bottomline (clearly visible) --- it really helps .Great Job. I will watch out for other books coming from Mr. Todd now. :)

Great book for beginners.

Todd Lofton is affilliated with Futures Magazine and has written an excellent book for beginning traders. I picked this book up at a Chapters location in Canada, and, if you can find it, get it for your library for future reference on futures trading.

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This is an excellent book that I recommend to anyone just getting started in learning about futures. The author writes in wonderful detail, and makes it easy for a person to understand the basics of the futures markets. This book is *the* place to start - it's a must read for beginners.
