 WOW! Great Forex Book February 8, 2010

This is a great book. I am glad I didn't pay attention to all the negative reviews on Mr. Dicks first book. Forex Made Easy was just that. The book gave me the info I needed and I was able to start trading. It was a logical progression to get Mr. Dicks' newest book. I have searched all over the internet and haven't found anything close to what I have found in this book. Well done, I love it. My favorite part is about the mindset of a trader, and building a plan, that was something I really needed to learn, and just that alone was worth every penny I paid for the book. I am so amazed that the first review of this book was ended with such mere unprofessionalism. This is obviously a competitor. To finish this post I would just say do what I did, contact Mr. Dicks directly, after I did I found out that he has a Forex managed account with an audited track record. He has my money now, and I couldn't be happier. Hope this helps.
 Excellent Forex trading book! February 8, 2010

I picked up the Forex Trading Secrets book last week and have read through 90% of the book; concentrating on the sections of my Forex trading where I could use additional help.
There are not many Forex books available that focus on the psychological and disciplinary side of trading, as well as the fundamental and technical side of identifying trades through various charting techniques like this new book. The original book that was written prior to this one, "Forex made easy" was a great introductory book to the Forex market that taught me a lot when it came out. I think this one takes me to the next level in my trading.
I am going to use the books trading system and money management plan as a guide for future trades and impliment the new strategies I learned immediately.
It's a great book and a small price for its value.

There is ZERO forex "secret" in this book, just the usual ramblings: what is a pip, the forex is the most liquid market, you need discipline, blah blah blah... Then at the end of the book, near the last chapter, the author shows you a couple of un-tested, un-proven "systems" that he supposedly uses. These so-called systems use subjective trendlines (will the real trendline stand up please?) and simplistic, non-backtested breakout "techniques". The whole purpose of the book is to lure you to his website, end of story.
THE joke of Forex books February 5, 2010

All hype, flashy title but NO substance.
Here is why -
Simply put, look at the title! Forex Trading Secrets: Trading Strategies for the Forex Market.
This implies the book is going to give you tons of secrets and trading strategies and tricks...right?
NOPE. Nothing new here folks. 90% of this book is teaching Forex basics...what pips are, lot sizes, etc. There are about5 trading methods saved for the very end of the book and these are nothing that cannot be found for free online using Google correctly. If you are that new to Forex, you should not even be looking at a book that is supposedly going to teach you strategies and secret moves...because if you are that new to the Forex world and trading, you will not 'GET IT'.
The title wording is purposely done to sucker the suckers.
PASS THIS UP! There are better beginners Forex books out there. This is not a bad book. It is a pathetic book attempting to hustle some dollars. Use GOOGLE and you will be provided with more info than you could dream up for FREE!
I do recommend books by recognized experts. This is not one of them.
James DICKS his readers out of money!
