The reality no one tells you

More than 80% of traders lose money. Not because it's impossible to win, but because they don't have the right foundations.

Trading in financial markets is one of the most complex professions that exists. It's a world controlled by large financial institutions that devote enormous resources and hire the best minds: engineers, physicists and mathematicians, to take money from other participants.

But it's not all negative. If you want to move forward, you have a small chance that involves leveling the playing field. Instead of fighting against them, we're going to trade alongside them.

The most complete trading book

As someone with some experience, I can affirm that this book is the most complete I have read on this subject. I can also affirm that I learned some things I didn't know. Perfect book for anyone who wants to start trading and for anyone who thinks they already know. I can attest that there are courses out there for $1,000 that don't hold a candle to this book.

Why this book and not another?

It will save you time, effort and money

I have also walked that path and I know exactly what you need to know and what is the best way to explain it so that it is understood.

No filler, every sentence has meaning

There is no filler content. Each of the sentences has an eminently practical and operational meaning, always relying on logical reasoning.

Clear language, without unnecessary jargon

I use language free of technical jargon with the sole objective of perfectly understanding each and every sentence.

The most complete for beginners

I am in a position to affirm that this is possibly the most complete book dedicated to beginners that you will find.
