About this title

From the Author:

Learn how to think, strategize, plan and execute for success
Having spent most of my adult life on Wall Street, I was a trader long before I was a writer. Every trader looks for an edge and I'm no different. When I read the original Art of War some time ago, it really opened my eyes. Being a combat veteran of Vietnam, the analogy of conflict in the markets was complelling. In our financial environment today the markets are in constant conflict. How you manage this conflict and more importantly yourself, will to a large degree determine your success.

I had originally wrote a series of aphorisms based on the teachings in the Art of War and their appicability to trading and investing. My partner said that I should share this wisdom with the rest of the world. I expanded those original aphorisms into a book that everyone can understand.

I am very fortunate to have a world class publisher in McGraw-HIll. They recognized the value in these pages and it is my hope that you will as well.
