Review of Short Term Trading Strategies That Work

Friday November 28, 2008

Short Term Trading Strategies That Work is the most recent trading book from Larry Connors. I have recently read Short Term Trading Strategies That Work, and I have subsequently written a full review of the book. My review includes an introduction to the book and its author, a description of each section of the book, my likes and dislikes about the book, and my recommendation for which traders should read the book.

There are so many trading books available (many of which are useless), that it is difficult for new traders (and even professional traders) to know which trading books are worth reading. My review of Short Term Trading Strategies That Work is my honest opinion of the book, and it should give you the information that you need to decide if the book is going to be your next trading book.

By the way, if you are frustrated with spending days or weeks reading thick trading books, only to find out that they have nothing to offer you, take heart, because Short Term Trading Strategies That Work can be read in just one evening.

With repect to all trading books, I suggest that you absolutly must be the quantitative “Creator” of the strategy in order to follow it through the inevitable times of drawdown and adversity. If it is someone elses creation then you must test it and try to disprove it in order to trust it. Get yourself a testing package (Amibroker pro is very inexpensive) and some high quality historical data like that which is offered by firms like these www.ForexTickData.com and start your journey.

Cheers and best of luck trading.
