Come behind closed doors and see real trades made by real
traders.
Dr. Alexander Elder leads you into 16 trading rooms where you
meet traders who open up their diaries and show you their trades.
Some of them manage money, others trade for themselves; some trade
for a living, others are on the semi-professional level. All are
totally serious and honest in sharing their trades with those who
would like to learn. You will meet American and international
traders who trade stocks, futures, and options using a variety of
methods. All are normally very private, but now, thanks to their
relationships with Dr. Elder, you can see exactly how these traders
decide to enter and exit trades. Each chapter illustrates an entry
and an exit for two trades, with comments by Dr. Elder. With this
book as your guide, you can get closer to mastering the key themes
of trading–psychology, tactics, risk control, record keeping,
and the decision-making process.
The companion Study Guide is filled with striking insights and
practical advice allowing you to test your knowledge and reinforce
the principles outlined in Entries & Exits.
