    Description of Trading the Plan

    Trading The Plan is a powerful instrument to help you achieve your financial destiny. It equips you with the tools you need to maximise your profits, control your risks, and, perhaps, most importantly, develop a money management program that will limit your losses.

    In the course of reading this remarkable book, you'll grow to regard the author Robert Deel as a trusted advisor who gives you tough, straightforward advice and helps you implement the changes you need to make. And, unlike the 'one-size-fits-all' approach of other advisors, Deel shows you how to tailor a strategy that fits your specific needs, goals, and risk tolerance.

    He examines the many faces of risk and thoroughly explores the key money management questions:

    How much of total available capital should you risk?

    How much do you risk in any one trade?

    ÊHow much leverage should you lose?

    How can you project losses and preserve you capital?

    Like no other book of its kind, Trading the Plan gives the individual trader in futures, stocks, and options a superb resource for investing, managing money, and limiting the profit-draining losses that can lead to financial disaster.
