Someone sent this Book to me via email as a PDF, they said it's
really good, it doesn't tech charts and T.A., but focuses on
trading discipline, managing risk, etc. I haven't ready it
personally so I can't comment, but figured I'd post it here as you
can download the PDF and read at your leisure
regarding discipline - that's why even just average or slightly
sub par systems will generally beat most average traders and folks
because systems have set rules and disciple, a set strategy vs most
of the masses who trade willy nilly by seat of their paints
I didn't know Mark Douglas had passed. Really sorry to hear
that. RIP. I think Trading in the Zone is one of the best books on
trading that I've ever read. The Disciplined Trader is also
excellent. My recollection is that he wrote Trading in the Zone
after The Disciplined Trader and he incorporated much of it in his
later book. They're both great, but I'd probably say if you're
going to read one then read Trading in the Zone. Mark Douglas deals
with the psychological aspects of trading better than anyone else
I've ever read. Invaluable stuff.

I actually prefer Brett Steenbargers books on psychology of trading. Horses for courses, but Brett makes more sense to me
Steenbarger: Yes
