99 Lessons for Profitable Stock Trading Success by Wong Yee
Dare to venture into the stock market? In a surging bull market, it is not a professional game. Share prices are rising so fast that practically everybody makes money. However, in a bear market, it is indeed a professional game – a case of the big investors winning at the expense of the small retail players. Thus, when the bull market ends, losses are inevitable. It’s too late, all is lost. A profitable stock trader is one who can make money in both bull and bear markets. In the bear market, when no one is buying, he is doing bargain hunting and he gets ready to sell his shares when the market is bullish. In the bullish market, he knows how to ride the bull trend and sell off ahead of others and not to get greedy. This book teaches you practical lessons on stock investing and how not to make the same mistakes that 90% of investors made. I sincerely hope that readers will be enriched and enlightened in one way or another in their pursuit of becoming a profitable stock trader.

The Complete Guide to Currency Trading & Investing by Martha Maeda
How to Earn High Rates of Return Safely and Take Control of Your Financial Investments
In recent years many smart investors have exited the stock market and other investment areas because they have essentially lost control of their investments. Many investment and retirement accounts have dwindled. Fortunately, there is a wonderful but little-understood alternative: currency trading and investing. Currency trading is the practice of exchanging one country’s currency for another country’s currency. The foreign exchange (Currency or Forex or FX) market is the largest trading market in the world exceeding $ 1.9 trillion every single day! Essentially there are four variables involved: currencies, exchange rate, time, and interest rate. The relationships of these variables create opportunities for small investors to obtain investment returns that are generally unheard of in the traditional investment world. You can get started with just $100 or less, and the investment can easily be managed in a part-time capacity, usually requiring only a few hours on the Internet a week. Currency investments can provide you with a very high and secure rate of return, in some cases as high as 12%, 18%, 24%, or even 1,000% or more per year. If performed correctly, currency trading will far outpace all other investments. The key is to know how to perform this process correctly. This all sounds great, but what is the catch? There really is none, except you must know what you are doing! This groundbreaking and exhaustively researched new book will provide everything you need to know to get started generating high-investments.
