Short description
Many traders enter the foreign exchange market in search of better returns - and with this book as their guide, they'll discover exactly how to accomplish this goal. Adventures of a Currency Trader explains in a straightforward and accessible manner how any individual can implement a conservative, consistent trading system in the foreign currency market and, in so doing, become a financially independent currency trader. Author Rob Booker's simple strategies allow traders to make money every day in the currency market without risking a large amount of capital. He teaches these methods through the fable of Harry Banes, a hopeful and inexperienced trader who journeys from beginner to profitable trader with the help of a teacher and mentor. Both technical and motivational in nature, Adventures of a Currency Trader contains powerful techniques for consistently making money in the currency market as well as stories of ordinary people who are using those very same techniques to trade successfully.
