Enhancing Trader Performance by Brett N. Steenbarger

Recommended Posts

Considering I read Steenbarger's blog almost everyday I can't believe it took me this long to pick up one of his books.

There is not much else to say other than that this is one of the best trading books ever written. Its really quite the opposite of any of the "how to make millions in the stock market" book. Dr. Brett pulls no punches as far as the realities of trading goes and basically lays out a blueprint here for those who take this game seriously and want to become truely expert traders.

While somewhat of a "trading pyschology" book it more or less pulls ideas from performance research in general and how to apply them to trading.

Really nothing else like it. The other part that makes this stand out is that Steenbarger obviously has a passion and talent for teaching/writing and this shines through in the clarity of the thought expressed in the book.

This is a serious psychologist or even psychiatrist, I read his first book which I believe has not been reviewed yet in here. Yes, pulls no punches - it is not uplifting experience to read him. Worthwile, professional, though remember - no one knows exactly how the mind works - it's minds hypothesising about the mind.

Do you have a copy of the video, or another link? Doesn't seem to be working anymore.

 

I've said this numerous times - Brett is a great guy, and his books are a reflection of that. Make sure you read them.

 

He is coming out with a new book soon, should be good.

Any solutions?

Hi,

 

I had the same problem. Upon investigation, it turns out that http://www.ioamt.com'>http://www.ioamt.com (thanks DarthTrader for the hint) does not have an A (DNS) record :angry: -

only ioamt.com resolves to IP 65.39.70.29.

 

The reversed tinyurl (removing the preceeding http://www.) points to:

 

 

Hope that helps.

    • Date: 27th November 2024. S&P500 at its 52nd new peak for 2024; USD Firmer, Kiwi & Yen Up. Asia & European Sessions: Wall Street rallied into the close with the S&P500 and Dow registering more record highs with the S&P500 climbing 0.57% to 6045, its 52nd new peak for 2024. The Dow rose 0.28% to 44,860.3 for its 46th record of the year. The NASDAQ advanced 0.63%. Trump named Jamieson Greer as the US Trade Representative and Kevin Hassett to direct the National Economic Council. Greer was intimately involved in Trump’s first-term trade policy decisions. President Biden announced Israel and Hezbollah have reached a cease fire. Over the next 60 days the Lebanese army and state security will take control of their own territory and Israel will gradually withdraw its forces. FOMC minutes: Minutes from the Fed’s latest policy meeting revealed officials leaning toward a cautious approach to future rate cuts. All agreed to cut the rate by -25 bps and nearly all thought risks between achieving employment and inflation goals were “roughly in balance.” Upside risks to the inflation outlook were little changed, and while inflation had eased, it remained elevated. The implied December rate continues to hover around a 50-50 bet as we await the PCE price data Wednesday and the crucial jobs report on December 6. The January 2025 rate is priced for a total of 20 bps in cuts, with -75 bps by January 2026. RBNZ cut its cash rate by 50 bps, yet the Kiwi gained as traders analyzed the central bank’s rate outlook and the governor’s remarks. Chinese government approved a 500 billion yuan ($69 billion) bond quota, enabling two state-owned asset managers to issue bonds for funding projects aimed at spurring economic growth. Today: US inflation and economic growth may provide clues to the Federal Reserve’s next policy move. Financial Markets Performance: The USDIndex has dropped to currently 106.459. The Yen climbed with USDJPY pulling back to 151.82, while NZDUSD jumped to 0.5900 despite the RBNZ’s 50 bps rate cut. Oil prices stabilized at $68.84, with optimism over delayed OPEC+ output increases balancing the reduced geopolitical risk stemming from the ceasefire. Gold rebounds to 2653.54, with next Resistance at 2660-2664. Always trade with strict risk management. Your capital is the single most important aspect of your trading business.
