The Little Book of Trading teaches the average person rules and philosophies that winners use to beat the market, regardless of the financial climate.

The Little Book of Trading:

• Identifies tools, concepts, psychologies, and philosophies that keep people protected and making money when the next market bubble or surprise crisis occurs
• Features top traders in each chapter that have beaten the market for decades, providing readers with their moneymaking knowledge
