Study Guide for Come Into My Trading Room

I have traded stocks since I was a teen. I have been familiar with Dr. Elder for years. Along the way, I have read many books on trading. His Come Into My Trading Room: A Complete Guide to Trading ranks among the best. Elder says it took him three years to write Come into My Trading Room. It can be read in a matter of days. The companion study guide assures mastery of the wealth of trading knowledge. Slowly working through the study exercises helps you master Elder's trading concepts and ideas. In his book Elder breaks the art and science of trading into three pillars. He calls them his three M's: Mind Market Management The key to winning the trading game is to win the battle within your mind. Dr. Elder, himself a practicing psychiatrist, explains how to develop discipline and to avoid the traps caused by emotional trading. Second, he shows how to identify good trades using charts and computerized indicators. In remarkably clear and concise language, he explains the indicators and how to combine them to develop your own trading system. Finally, he discusses importance of money management. The successful trader manages risk. Elder lays down rules to harness it. The study guide reinforces it. If you are serious about trading these two books should be at the top of your reading list. Their combined price is small compared to the money you can lose learning the lessons contained within them.

I'm usually not so much into study guides as they add nothing new to the table except picking out some points of the theory. Well was I dead wrong on this guide. It is not so much about checking did you remember the right numbers and names as it is much more focused on did you shift you point of view ? And every answer is well documented what the most effective point of view could be. I've learned quite a bit more with working through this study guide. I recently purged the study guide from Entries and Exists as well work my way through that too, and in time for the finals, participate in one of the trading camps. Recommended for every one out there in the markets learning to ride the waves instead of getting smashed by them. Wessel
