A New Approach to Stock Trading - The Market Whisperer

As a biginner of stock trading, I found this book extremely helpful for day traders. It covers all the basics you need to you know. For instance, it discusses the fundamental analysis, techinical analysis and mental psychological issues (Chapter 14).
Meir stresses that "Discipline is the name of the game". I think as a novice trader, the first thing I need to learn is not trade for money but trade right and train myself to be self-disciplined.
This book can be very helpful to guide you and modify your behavior, which is why I read certain parts again and again when I made mistake, breaking rules.

One of the best trading books i have read. Everything you need to know is in the book. From the history of the stock market, technical indicators, psychology the list goes on.
I would advise to read the book fully once and then to use certain chapters as reference. I still go back to certain chapters to refresh my memory on certain points.
The book has transformed in to a better trader and is highly recommended for all experience levels.

I started following Meir online and on his YouTube Channel and I was very impressed of his trading style
this book is must read
one of the best books I have read
loved it that I read it twice already
thank you,
Meir.

Since November 2012 I have been looking at trading with a very confused mind and not really sure about what I was looking for or how to interpret what I was seeing.

To be honest I realized that most mentors just throw information to you to look smart and make you think that without them you would be lost.

On the other side Meir has filtered the most important information that you need to know and remember so as to feel empowered and take trades on your own as soon as you feel comfortable.

This book allows you to discover the true facets of trading, how to interpret what you see and moreover what to do with with it.

I sincerely could not expect better from any other book. It is amazing how Meir has covered the subject with so much insight.

I wish I had this book earlier but better late than never :)

Thanks Meir for this book. Its like having someone holding your hand walking you through the reality of trading

I deeply recommend Meir's Videos on YouTube and you will understand even better what we all are talking about.

This book is priceless. It is years of experience and strategies actually practiced and not preached that are very simple yet highly effective for a multitude of reasons.

As a trader starting out, spending real money and trading on a live platform I've gone through half a dozen books from the store and at the book store and none of them match up to this.

This book has a range of topics, and all of them are necessary and useful. Many topics that were unclear or confusing in other books clicked and made immediate sense since Meir Barak uses every day language, making the read very enjoyable for a financial book.

There is no fluff or useless content as other reviewers on the store have commented, and virtually everything is used in the live trading room on a daily basis.

Meir solves a lot of issues traders have starting out that I had such as:
-Starting capital/buying power
-Education
-Fast execution

Bottom line is, this book is a recipe for success.

If you want to get a free first hand opinion for yourself you can see his videos on his free youtube channel, get a trial to his live trading room where I follow his picks daily.

After years of stepping into and out of the stock market spending most of the time on the wrong side of the trade, this book changed my prospective it focuses the mind on what your competitors are thinking and how to be on the right side of the trade. What's great about this book, the author Meir Barak also posts live trades on Youtube which supports and most importantly illustrates the techniques he covers in the book. A great read I highly recommend it.

This is a terrible book, and honestly I question how it has gotten so many 5 star reviews. That was the only reason I bought it, and I promptly returned it for a refund the following day. The seller runs a trading website / room / service and all I can conclude is that he persuades his customers / students to purchase the book and post a positive review.

The author starts off by making very captivating statements...you know, the stuff we all know is true but which catches our attention anyways and makes us think "wow, this guy must be one of the good ones". Statements such as: The markets are rigged, professional traders know whats going on and are there to take your money, 90% of traders lose money but you can be part of the 10%, etc etc. It all sounds great, until he starts getting in to the meat of the book. But first, lets spend 50 pages learning about the history of wall street. Where did it get its name from? How did ECNs come about? How do market makers make markets? I thought this book was in the finance section, not the history section.

We're now ready to start discussing trading strategy and indicators. And here are the winning secret indicators: MACD, Candlestick reversal patterns, Moving averages,VWAP , and Bollinger Bands!! Are you kidding me? How can you be part of the 10% when you are using the same lame / lagging indicators as the 90% who are losing? But wait, now it's time to learn some secret strategies. And the winners are: Candlestick reversal patterns, and intra-day breakouts! Just like you find in the 90% of other books out there. Save your money, there is nothing New to this author's Approach. Move along..I recommend Jesse Stine or Mark Minervini hand and fist above this guy's books or services.

Good read. This trader has a good understanding of the market psychology. You can watch him apply his knowledge on YouTube, and even on his trading room, free for a few days. Not selling him, don't worry. He's just that good.

One of the most realistic approaches to actually making money out of the market I've happened to pick up.
A must read if your planning on making a living out of the stock market trading your own funds .

Very impressive book. Written in an honest, straightforward manner that is easily digestible to the beginning trader, but also sufficiently comprehensive to satisfy traders at the intermediate level. If you're interested in demystifying the world of day trading, then this book is your one stop solution that touches on every aspect of it.
