Summary: A Reader
Review: I just attended the Traders Expo in Chicago and met Toni Turner. I found her to be warm and intelligent, and her presentation and teaching skills are excellent. I've read both of her books, and I recommend them both. She writes in a direct and interesting manner that makes it easy to learn about the complicated subject of trading. She warns at the beginning of each that trading is difficult and is not for everyone. Even though her books are for beginners, as stated in the titles, the material in her books is substantial and comprehensive. My skills and trading gains definitely have risen since I've read and studied her books, and applied what I've learned to my trades. I hope she writes another one.

Summary: For beginners
Review: I hesitate to rate this any better or informative than Day Trading for Dummies. Written to give the beginner enough information and setups to be dangerous with false confidence. I would only marginally recommend this to the most beginning of traders.

Summary: Wow
Review: I've only read two books so far on online trading; this one and "Rule the Freakin' Markets". I read the latter first and was going to give it five stars because it was written in an entertaining style and I learned a lot, although I still felt that I didn't have a clue what trading was all about. Then I loaned that book to a friend in exchange for this one. Wow. Turner's book gives you at least ten times as much how to information and she is a clear and likable writer (I'm an English teacher; I notice these things). Being an absolute beginner, it took me a couple of weeks to go through it and now I need to give it back and buy my own copy. I hate to downgrade the other book too much but considering how much I've gotten out of Turner's book, I can't give the other one more than a two. Sorry.

Summary: Great Beginners Guide
Review: This book is definitely worth the money if you're looking for an introduction to day trading. Toni Turner gives straightforward practical advice that you can apply to your trades. Her writing style also makes the book well worth the money. She keeps the tone conversational and easy to understand, yet without sacrificing content. One thing I would keep in mind is that day trading requires a significant time investment and is also a risky business. I would recommend her other book, "A Beginners Guide to Short Term Trading" unless you are ready to spend all of your time watching the market - otherwise you will not be disappointed with this purchase.

Summary: One of the best starter books for new investors
Review: The insightful, friendly, witty style makes this book the ideal starting place for new traders. A Beginner's Guide To Short Term Trading by Toni Turner is also an excellent choice.

Summary: Good for complete novices
Review: This is a fine book if you've never, ever traded and you're looking for a pep talk, a pat on the back, a "Hey, you can DO it!" sort of thing. Look upon it as an introduction to the terminology of trading, with a little insight into what indicators are useful. Regular traders will be put-off by the sparse detail, the broad scope, the heavy-handed treatment of the emotions associated with trading, and I found the little life-affirming statements at the end of each chapter absolutely excruciating. I felt embarrassed for the author. The book it simply too broad in its scope to be useful to anyone who knows something about trading. The various chapters cover a lot, but in scant detail. It's an introduction to the world of trading, in general. If you have a fair idea of what you're doing at the moment, read Jea Lu's book on daytrading; leave this one on the shelf.

Summary: The title fits the book wells, a great book for beginners!
Review: Before reading this book I lost about $3500 out of my $10,400 portfolio. Since reading this book I have executed a couple trades using some strategies mentioned in the book and I have made approximately $1000 of that money back. I'm on my way to profitability soon!
Higly recommended for beginners!

Summary: Great book!
Review: I agree with most of the posting here so I won't repeat the same thing again and again. This is a great beginner's book. Worth the money I spent. A short comment: I've been involved in the IT field and use terms like 'server' and 'provider' all the time. Most of us who are familiar with the those two terms know what the terms mean/refer to. The author seemed to mix/confuse these terms several times in the book. It's not a big deal, I just think it is a little misleading for those who are not familiar with these terms and could possibly lower someone's credibility a tiny tiny bit - I've met with an exec of one internet company who didn't know [the difference] when to use the term 'downloading' and 'uploading'. For instance, on page 32 in the 'Hot Tip' the author said "If you use the Internet to trade on, make sure you have a backup Internet Server." I think she meant Internet [Service] Provider. I wonder how many traders actually run/use 'Internet Servers' and have a backup also. May be one of these days I would run into a trader who said that he/she had problems with his/her Internet Server :)

Summary: THE BEST!!
Review: This book has more valuable information than all those other books selling for 4 times the price. It explains things clearly and is packed with usable knowledge. Toni Turner gets right to the meat of the matter (daytrading) in a concise straight forward manner, if you want to try daytrading, this book is the one to buy.
