A beginner's guide to day trading

by Toni Turner

This is a useful guidebook for those looking to engage in day or short-term trading in the stock market. The topics covered include technical analysis of stocks, market fundamentals, skills and strategies of professional traders, and how to select an online broker. The author discusses how to trade in 4 different time frames (day trade, short-term, swing, scalp) and how to avoid the pitfalls inherent in each. The book includes numerous (very helpful) images and explanations of Nasdaq Level II quote screens. The author has a rare ability to make the topic of technical analysis of stocks understandable to beginning day traders.
