About this title

From the Back Cover:

Praise for the Value and Momentum Trader

"Grant Henning's book is a potent combination of statistics, philosophy, and commentary that only a true social scientist could provide. Henning speaks of the 'bold passion' of trading, and the powerful analogies he offers between the world of trading and more familiar environs is a perspective that I think will help any trader. This book provides the tools that subject trading ideas to the rigor of statistical analysis as opposed to the open-ended (and therefore more hazardous) subjective interpretations one often sees. Just as important, the book points you exactly where on the Web you can find the resources you need to put these ideas into action."
--Tim Knight, founder of SlopeOfHope.com and author of Chart Your Way to Profits
