About this listen

Revealing the tricks leading to success that today's market wizards keep up their sleeves, The Little Book of Trading is the resource you need to get all markets working for you again.

Recent events have left the average individual investor extremely dubious about playing the markets. But just because some unprepared individuals have paid for their mistakes is no reason to stay away from taking advantage of trending opportunities that, with a little careful planning, can yield exceptional results.

Market fluctuation is nothing new, but there is a set of rules and philosophies you can rely on to get the market back on your side, regardless of whether times are good or bad. Drawing on author Michael Covel's own extensive experience in the trading world, as well as tips and insights gathered from some of the world's most successful traders, this book identifies the tools, concepts, psychologies, and philosophies that will keep your money growing—and safe—even when the next bubble bursts or the next crisis hits.

With each chapter featuring easy-to-understand advice from a top trader or trading firm that has won by beating mutual-fund performance, this Little Book prepares the cautious, would-be investor to make money like an old hand and presents a revolutionary new argument: that mutual funds, long the investment vehicle of choice for people looking for security in retirement, are no longer to be relied on.

With everything you need to grab all markets by the horns, this book provides a comprehensive overview of active investing strategies and risk-management techniques that you can easily use to your best advantage.

Outstanding Again!

Absolutely loved this, not just wisdom from Mr Covel but to profile Trend Following greats and summarise their journey. The physical copy has to find a home on my bookshelf!
So concise and full of gold, Great Effort!

Informative

This book had some useful information in it but it gets packed out with a lot of stuff that just does not interest me. I guess I'm looking for something more clinically prescriptive.

Concise and actionable information on trend following

Sometime the Little Books give you better information than the bulkier versions.

Covey’s book here is excellent. Crisp and dense with advice and recommendations, as well as words on the general philosophy of trend following.

It’s a nice tour through some of the names in the literature. And their accompanying wisdom and rules.

A nice introduction to the generalities: rationale of risk management, stops, and strategy across markets. As well as juxtaposition of these systems to fundamental approaches.

Should be called "Little Book Of Trend Following"

Anyone familiar with Covel's work will know he is an evangelical advocate for trend-following, and this slim volume is a good introduction and summary of his arguments in favor of this approach. I enjoyed it very much and will be re-reading it, despite his proclivity for sounding a triffle smug at times.

Pratt is always a solid narrator.
