It completely changes your perspective and mindset towards the market!
Insights that accurately predict the future and key techniques for penetrating the market

“Winners sell hope, losers buy hope!”

There are countless stock trading books that hype and promote petty techniques and shallow strategies as if they were the truth.
However, The Day Swing Trading Bible is a book that will revolutionize the minds of those who enter the market without thinking.
Because it completely changes your perspective and way of thinking about the market.
This book equips self-taught traders with the tools to approach the stock market with a well-thought-out, well-designed plan.

“You must first learn to trade people, not stocks.
“Many beginners don’t realize that there is always someone on the other side of every transaction!”

However, no matter how ingenious and perfect the strategy and tactics are, they are useless if the underlying spirit is not properly prepared.
Just because you know what to do doesn't mean you'll naturally act that way.
85% of the game of trading is inherently mental, and good 'trading' is ultimately a byproduct of good 'thinking'.
For a trader of sound mind, sound methods and profits will naturally follow.
"The Day Swing Trading Bible" provides practical help by addressing the mental and psychological issues that market participants inevitably face.
In particular, the "Seeds of Wisdom" section that concludes each section of the book allows you to easily understand specialized content and acquire sound concepts about the market and investing.

Charts are the most accurate money trail and never lie!
The Ultimate Trading Guide to Mastering the Markets

We also introduce how to develop strategies and tactics to maximize profits by utilizing these patterns.
It's also packed with practical, specific advice and secrets you won't find in any other book, including five tools for market timing (such as S&P futures), the seven deadly sins of trading (such as failing to cut your losses), 12 rules for success, and 10 lessons and 15 secrets for master traders.

This unique trading guidebook is filled with the knowledge, experience, and opportunities accumulated over many years by two true "master traders" from the days of trading stocks over the phone to the present day.
