All of the many people interviewed in the book do things a little differently, while all are successful. The book reminded me that you can not be all things to all people. Decide how you want to run your business, have fun and do it. Find clients who meet your parameters. While I am new to the point and figure method and the DW system, I realize now that, if I had used it, I could have prevented some disasters and saved some clients from the fundamental world. Using both technical and fundamental analyses together will benefit both you and your clients. Anyone serious about their career as a "stock broker" should read the book and learn a little something about technical analysis. Great book Tom thanks!!!!!!!

For anyone in the business looking for a better way (there are SEVERAL illustrated, no doubt one will work for you); for anyone contemplating a career in the industry; or, for an individual investor looking for insight into the mind of the person handling your SERIOUS MONEY... this book is a MUST READ! Tom gives the reader invaluable descriptions of what it took several successful professionals YEARS to discover on their own. He does it with compassion and humor, which may be a result of his having been on the front lines himself. Anyone who has money in the stock market should read this book today. The "Web Sites For Brokers" listed in the book alone are worth the investment.
A roadmap for all stock market participants.
