Book List

[midworld08]

I preferred Alexander Elders "Come into my trading Room" than his "Trading for a living".

Currently reading ;
How to make a living trading Foreign exchange - Courtney D Smith.
7 winning forex strategies for trading forex - Grace Cheng

The Grace Cheng one is great for an overview of how the market makers work. However I only liked 2 of the 7 strategies. The other strategies are either well known about already, or I won't be trading them, but they did teach me why the Fx moves different to a stock market.

The other I am still reading, but I prefer it, and have started using his Donchian channel strategy with great results. The other strategies are also different and not so well known, well to me as a relative Noob.

How about Steve Nison - candlesticks?

 

[Pharaoh]

I haven't read those, but Sive strongly recommends them in the CandleStick chapter of Forex Military School.

Chapter 9 - Forex Peace Army Forum

 

[JSDans]

Thanks so much for all the books. I have been trying to find the best books while learning my way with Forex. Can't wait to start reading them!

 

[Jorex]

"Trend Trading" by Daryl Guppy has for sure been the most helpful to me!

 

[SilverOne]

Alan Farley's books are great.

 

[JRamos]

I would suggest "The Complete Turtle Trader" by Michael Covel.

There are also amazing resources on the internet like Bloomberg - Business & Financial News, Breaking News Headlines for updates, the slideshows on Slideshare, and Everest Forex teaches you trading strategies.

Happy Trading!
