If it doesn't go up, don't buy it

This book is a gem! Have a paper and pencil ready to take notes to start your own investment portfolio. Keep in mind the Author has been on both sides of the fence as he will tell you, and thereby offers some very insightful and extremely informative ways to help you in the markets. His absolute best advise given in the book is 'cut your losses!'
An outstanding book!

Jury's still out on this one

I have to say the jury's still out on this book.

It's a trading manual based on 200 and 50 day moving averages. It uses the simplist of indicators. Hasn't been a bull market yet, so I can't really say how it works. In retrospect it works very well, but so do many back tested strategies. Does have some links to free websites that give timing signals, and you can get the authors e mail newsletter for three months for free. It comes out weekly.

Nevertheless, it is unique in it's style and approach.

I like the fact that the authors e mail shows you his positions and what he bought them at. It's his money in real time. I would buy the book because of it's unique approach and common sense advice. It should be updated to cover ETFs. Even this revised version is four years old.

Buyer beware-It is poorly edited and organized. It needs at least two read throughs plus visiting the sites mentioned and subscribing to the e mail newsleter in order for it all to make sense.

It's a good read and it will probably help you make some money and/or presevre capital.

Simple and effective

I've spent a number of years researching and developing my own trading systems that produced average results. Like most people, I don't want to spend most of my time in front of a computer screen watching the price of a stock tick up and down. I was also tired of having to watch for news that might affect my investments. I wanted a method that would allow me to make money and free up my time. Al came through with a simple, but very effective method.
Living in the information age, we forget that simple is often the best. Al helps the investor to know when to be in the market or on the sidelines just watching. Sometimes the hardest action is no action and being on the sidelines with your account in cash can be the best place during a down market.
I enjoyed reading Al's book and I highly recommend it.

Worth the Read

A well written book covering investing in no load mutual funds and a list of DONT"S visa vi investing. The author has a method for getting out of the stock market at the right time. Emphasis on taking profits and limiting one's losses. Easy to read.

I just made 37% in a year with this book

THANK YOU Albert Thomas! I found this book by accident while searching the internet for info on on trend-following for mutual funds, something I was sort-of doing on my own, but without a plan or the great advice Al relays in this book. I'm 13 months into investing using this book's simple method. I started Oct 1, 2006, and to date, my return after all commissions is 37% - the S&P 500 has gone up 14.8% in the same time period.

Al tells you in the book that you can get this kind of return in a bull market, and easily beat the market. From my experience, he's not putting you on. It's such a simple plan, and doesn't require any big amount of time. It's a fun, easy read, it makes sense, and it works. He's a no BS guy and knows what he's talking about.

I was one of the many who were duped into the "buy and hold" mentality over the years - until I lost big 2000-2002. I vowed to never let that happen again. This book really woke me up to how protecting your capital is SO important. This simple tip (and how to do it) combined with Al's showing you how to be in the best ETFs or funds - and WHEN - is fantastic advice. Do get the service he recommends for picking the ETFs/funds, it is WELL worth the small expense. Note that Al is NOT selling a thing, as I've heard other authors do in their books. He's just giving you a fantastic money-making plan.

Do not wait, get this book! Easily the best $20 I've ever spent.

An easy-to-understand way to buy and sell no-load mutual funds. How to find funds that go up and when to sell funds that go down. Never lose money in the stock market. Very few buys and sells per year and only requiring about one hour per month of your time. Works for regular IRAs as well as 401Ks.
