SHARE TRADER'S HANDBOOK

‘If you are after a no-nonsense book to help you get started trading the markets, then this is the book for you.’
LOUISE BEDFORD author of Trading Secrets

This is a handbook in the true sense of the word — a guide-book. It is the result of feedback from the participants in the author’s many workshops and seminars. Share trader and educator Jim Berg guides readers through the vast amount of information available on investing in the sharemarket. He presents the essentials of WHY the sharemarket exists and HOW it works, as well as HOW TO participate and some of the more common methods of analysing shares. Alongside explanations of the basic investment concepts, readers are shown how to recognise and use such information when trading shares.

It is always wise to have as many tools at hand as possible when choosing and monitoring sharemarket positions. Combining elements of fundamental and technical analysis can help share traders to enhance both their skills and their returns. Jim gives step-by-step examples of how to build and refine a personalised trading strategy. Readers can gain an overall view of the market and the relevant knowledge to begin trading.
