    Description of Come Into My Trading Room

    In Come Into My Trading Room, Dr. Elder returns to expand far beyond the three M's (Mind, Method & Money) of his bestselling Trading for a Living (118,000 + copies). Shifting focus from technical analysis to the overall management of a trader's money, time, and strategy, Dr. Elder takes readers from the fundamentals to the pro secrets of being a successful trader, identifying, as he did in his first book, little known indicators that can lead to huge profits.

    A study guide is available to accompany this book (type '14570' in the search box of this bookshop).
