Distribution systems have long known tendency to employ the following strategies profitable in the futures markets. The application of these concepts has proven difficult, equity trading, although the idea of the next trend in the stock market is at least the days of Charles Dow. In a new book
Kedrick Brown, a former vice president at Knight Equity Markets, LP, which defines the trade trend and offers readers much to think about, and readers of this book is to find a number of testable ideas.
confirmed Brown reviews the basic principles of the Dow theory, and summarizes the underlying idea as “Dow Theory is therefore worth only
own shares during the bull in the major indexes, which is different from the people. “It also provides a simple definition of a negotiation strategy to monitor trends such as” Any pre-planned, rule-based strategy for management open position P & L, which could grow in open
hypothetical benefits Nitely indeterminate under a limited set of circumstances, while losses are limited open in all circumstances. ”
After understanding the development of a common basis for developing a relatively simple Brown trend-following strategy to implement what he called the technical analysis of three dimensions. In the three-dimensional technical analysis, traders have to keep not only the price and date in a single population, but should expand its focus to similar information in several populations simultaneously. In his book, Brown fully develops a strategy for each exchange of samples of NASDAQ securities to trade, such as MSFT.

1 State: Take long positions in MSFT only when the Nasdaq composite index is in an uptrend, which is defined as the price for a new 32 day high in recent times when there is a new low of 32 days to make.
2 buy MSFT if it is a new maximum of 24 days, while the Nasdaq composite index is in an uptrend.
3 Limit your losses by establishing a firm grip on the first floor of 24 days upon registration of the trade.
4 If the first stop is again at a fresh 24 days, when the Nasdaq Composite is still in an uptrend.
5 Exit when the Nasdaq composite index on a downward trend, defined by the price reached a new low of 32 days.
Buy and sell decisions to follow this example, the general trend of market development. The strategy creates the open position P & L for loss of earnings and result in rising markets.

This book presents the following marketing methods for long-term trend.
There is nothing new in it. If you have read, for example, “Trade your way to financial freedom” (much better to read by the way) are to learn anything in this book.
style of the book is very academic, but all things that occur are very simple. Everything is in large measure to the formula of the hand or the repetition of the same fabric for the short side (balanced), after being found to the long side, perhaps, to reach the critical number of 200 pages for detailed book.
I wonder what the motivation for this book, there is nothing new. publish a result of sales Wiley Frenzy?

This book gives you good techniques for the trade to make a test copy for your car. The tecnniques mentioned, are very simple, but it was the writer in the academic track. It also helps you to trust your decision provides a basis for what? When? and how. At the end of reading this book that could make my own t simple strategy has become, the rest is how to maintain this strategy.
This book will not help you in selecting the right stocks is evaluated. . . etc. The main objective (this is really for me) is reached, so that its entry and exit without emotions scientifically.
The only challenge I find in this book are not sufficient to negotiating techniques in the short term.
Rating: 4 / 5
