All three Market Wizard books are excellent I dont know of a good trader
that doesnt reccomend them.  You can get all 3 in paperback for like 15 a
book.

  David,

  What is the "Market Wizards" you refer to? Is this a book and if so, could
you send me a link with more information on it. Has anyone else in the group
read this book that could offer opinions on its value?

  Kelly

    Pritish...

    A good idea is to focus almost solely on risk and let the profits take
care of themselves... which is what the 2% or less risk rule allows  you to
do.  In his book, WON talks about how if you are alert, you will actually be
out of many stocks before the 7-8% loss because you will be able to tell
when a stock is not acting right.  The 7-8% loss is the maximum.  It's not a
blind rule to follow.

    David Ryan, in Market Wizards, said he would sell half of any position
that fell back to the pivot point.  I highly recommend the interview with
him.  He talks very specifically about how to trade using CANSLIM.  And he
won some sort of investing championship 3 years in a row... which is not
bad.  Returns well over 100 percent each year.

    Personally, I think if you just buy breakouts and blindly use a 7-8%
stop over the next few years, there is a good chance your portfolio will be
eaten away... particularly if you are so naive as I was last year... to buy
many stocks simultaneously without waiting for profits to show up first.
