    Description of How I Trade for a Living

    The dream of many traders and active investors is to be able to successfully trade from home and make a living at it. While publications exist which cover trading strategies by analysts, fund managers, and pundits, there is virtually nothing available by someone who is trading from home successfully.

    How I Trade for a Living is a trading strategy by someone who has been trading from home profitably for over fifteen years. Gary Smith, a well-known and lauded member in the trading community, explains what it takes to be a home-based trader, from the mental grit to the basic hardware. He outlines his profitable trading strategies, which can be utilised for trading in individual stocks, options and bonds, and shows exactly how he uses them to trade stock index futures and mutual funds.

    Smith talks the talk and walks the walk; he shows the reader his actual trading results for the past three years. Not only is his strategy successful in terms of profits but there are no drawdowns. Most trading strategies may show great profits but at the expense of significant downside risk; Smith's program is low risk. He offers a simple strategy with no complex technical indicators, no heavy charts, and no big software needs. This system can be used by anyone almost anyplace. How I Trade for a Living is an honest, realistic guide to trading for a living.
