5 out of 5 stars Title Is Campy But Content Is Solid.......2007-09-27

Never liked the title, but there's enough solid information in the book to make it worth the read. Trading is 90+ percent psychology and money management. Otherwise brilliant people can perform miserably using a top notch proven trading system without these 2 factors in check....

1 out of 5 stars NUTS AND BOLTS MISSING.......2007-09-03

Great theory, a stock that goes up 15 points will cover losses of 14 stocks that go down 1 point so control your losses and come out 1 point ahead. No practical information on how to set up a trading system, only generalizations. This is the same book this guy wrote 10 years ago.
Great suggestions like be like Warren Buffet. Don't waste your money.

4 out of 5 stars Good emphasis on objectives and position sizing, Not so clear on somethings........2007-08-14

From the 4 stars and the fact that I got both the older edition and new edition of the book, I think this book is good. But constructive criticism will be given here instead.

In the foreword, The author admitted his confusing explanation of the topic on "expectancy" in his older edition, which was improved in the new edition. I just wished he could have improved the technical sections as well.

explanations for deeper technical aspects of trading strategy and indicator are vague and require additional resources for explanation. such as the section on explaining ADX indicator and Perry Kaufman's system are very vague. these sections of the book are very confusing and slow to get through, yet, I have learned a great deal in searching other sources for explanations on these topics. So for trading strategies and indicator, technical stuff, this book is confusing. but I like how the author gives his opinions on the effectiveness of various tools out there. cus we all know the tools are there, just need to know which ones are good and how they should be used.

other parts are wonderful. good book. read the other positive comments, I agree.

5 out of 5 stars THE book for mathematical systems traders.......2007-07-30

I've read a great many books about trading and investing, and in my opinion this book is the most informative and educational book on the market for traders who trade non-discretionary systems, or would like to learn the proper methods for doing so. His discussions of risk management, position sizing, and obtaining a real edge in the markets are second to none. Discretionary traders and investors will also benefit from this book, though systems are his focus.

I don't understand how some of the other reviewers could call this book nonsense. It is not nonsense. As a trader who trades every day, I can tell you that you will learn and improve if you read and understand this book.
Until you clearly understand risk management you do not have a significant long term edge in the markets. This book is one of the few out there that can teach you this.

4 out of 5 stars Excellent.......2007-07-27

Essential reading for all traders, novice and experienced. The R-multiple concept and self-examination are invaluable. These techniques will keep you in the market long enough for the positive expectancy to get in gear.

3 out of 5 stars WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON WITH SAMMY?.......2007-04-20

I did enjoy this offering from Chua; it is an informative read. It is not overly technical. There is, however, a shortage of intra-day strategies.The bulk of this text focused on swing-trade techniques.I am ticked about the CD-ROM that was advertised to be included with this book. Everything changed after the release date; no CD. The Sammy site offers the CD, but does not deliver the product(spam trap). Requests for an explanation get no response. Yo' Sammy, what's the deal? I want my stuff, man!

          The Microfinance Poverty Assessment Tool was developed as a much-needed tool to increase transparency on the depth of outreach of microfinance institutions (MFIs). It is intended to assist donors and investors to integrate a poverty focus into their appraisals and funding of financial institutions through a more precise understanding of the clients served by these institutions. Used in conjunction with an institutional appraisal of financial sustainability, governance, management, staff and systems, a poverty assessment allows for a more holistic understanding of an MFI. The Microfinance Poverty Assessment Tool provides accurate data on the poverty levels of MFI clients relative to people living in the same community. It uses a more standardized, globally applicable, and rigorous set of indicators than those used by conventional microfinance targeting tools. The tool employs principal component analysis to construct a multidimensional poverty index that allows the poverty outreach of MFIs to be compared within and across countries. Originally field tested in four countries on three continents, it has subsequently been applied by microfinance donors and MFI networks in numerous other countries. Although the Microfinance Poverty Assessment Tool was designed for microfinance, the tool can also be used to measure the poverty levels of clients of other development programs. 'The survey collects data on internationally standardized indicators, but is adapted-with the staff of MFI-to take into account the local context. The combination of international standardization (allowing for comparison), with local adaptations (allowing for appropriate and useful indicators), is key to the success of the tool."."" - Anton Simanowitz, Imp-Act Programme Institute of Development Studies, University of Sussex, UK

            [Field, Stephen Johnson]. Pomeroy, John Norton. Some Account of the Work of Stephen J. Field as a Legislator, State Judge, and Judge of the Supreme Court of the United States. [n.p.]: [[S.B. Smith], 1881. 464 pp. Reprint available 2003 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. ISBN 1-58477-326-X Cloth. $90.

            * Stephen Johnson Field [1816-1899] began his career as a legislator and member of the Supreme Court of California. One of his earliest accomplishments was his work as draftsman of the 1851 California Practice Act. He was appointed to the United States Supreme Court in 1863 and remained on the bench until 1897. He also served a concurrent term as a circuit court judge for the Pacific states. One of the great justices of the nineteenth century, he had a lasting influence on constitutional law through his contributions to Fourteenth Amendment jurisprudence and its Due Process Clause. Dictionary of American Biography III:373. In this book Pomeroy [1828-1885], the equally influential author of the Treatise on Equity Jurisprudence and other important works, surveys and analyzes every significant opinion delivered by Field throughout his career, with an emphasis on his years in the U.S. Supreme Court and on the circuit.

                    Book Description

                    Published with great success in France in 1981, and now appearing for the first time in English, Marching to Captivity is the remarkable diary kept by Gustave Folcher, a French peasant who was called up to serve the French Army in the Second World war, captured by Germans and put to work on a labour farm deep inside Germany.

                    The diaries, running from the start of the war to Folcher's return to France in May 1945, provide a unique view of the life of a soldier in the disastrous Battle of France, of a peasant life in France and Germany during the war, and finally of the collapse of Nazism in 1945

                                              This book explains the use and techniques of paleomagnetism to map the movement of major portions of the Earth’s surface through time. Written for a geological audience, the initial chapters provide the basic essentials for understanding the value and significance of paleomagnetic results. The later chapters are unique in bringing together the vast amounts of available paleomagnetic data and analyses. This information is integrated with the paleogeography and tectonic movements of the blocks and placed in context with current tectonic hypotheses. A considerable proportion of the present continents are considered – that is the land areas that are now found around the Atlantic and Indian Oceans and in Asia. Also presented is an extensive catalogue of paleomagnetic results for all major continents and the displaced elements that they contain.

                                                Book Description

                                                Paleomagnetism is the study of the fossil magnetism in rocks. It has been paramount in determining that the continents have drifted over the surface of the Earth throughout geological time. The fossil magnetism preserved in the ocean floor has demonstrated how continental drift takes place through the process of sea-floor spreading. The methods and techniques used in paleomagnetic studies of continental rocks and of the ocean floor are described and then applied to determining horizontal movements of the Earth's crust over geological time. An up-to-date review of global paleomagnetic data enables 1000 million
                                                years of Earth history to be summarized in terms of the drift of the major crustal blocks over the surface of the Earth.
                                                The first edition of McElhinny's book was heralded as a "classic and definitive text." It thoroughly discussed the theory of geomagnetism, the geologic
                                                reversals of the Earth's magnetic field, and the shifting of magnetic poles. In the 25 years since the highly successful first edition of Palaeomagnetism and Plate Tectonics (Cambridge, 1973) the many advances in the concepts, methodology, and insights into paleomagnetism warrant this new treatment. This completely updated and revised edition of Paleomagnetism: Continents and Oceans will be a welcome resource for a broad audience of earth scientists as well as laypeople curious about magnetism, paleogeography, geology, and plate tectonics.
                                                Because the book is intended for a wide audience of geologists, geophysicists, and oceanographers, it balances the mathematical and descriptive aspects of each topic.

                                                There was a desparate need for a book pitched at the general audience -- until now.

                                                The 1st edition of McElhinny's book was heralded as a "classic and definitive text". It thoroughly discussed the theory of geomagnetism, the geologic reversals of the Earth's magnetic field, and the shifting of magnetic poles. In the 26 years since the highly successful first edition of Palaeomagnetism and Plate Tectonics (Cambridge, 1973) the many advances in the concepts, methodology, and insights into paleomagnetism warrant this new treatment. This completely updated and revised edition will be a welcome resource for a broad audience of earth scientists as well as laypeople curious about magnetism, paleogeography, geology, and plate tectonics.

                                                I particularly enjoyed the set of Chris Scotese's color paleogeographic maps covering the past 250 million years.

                                                          Book Description

                                                          This major, two-volume work is devoted to the methods of the spectral theory of operators and the important role they play in infinite-dimensional analysis and its applications. Central to this study is the theory of the expansion of general eigenfunctions for families of commuting self-adjoint or normal operators. This enables a consideration of commutative models which can be applied to the representation of various commutation relations. Also included, for the first time in the literature, is an explanation of the theory of hypercomplex systems with locally compact bases. Applications to harmonic analysis lead to a study of the infinite-dimensional moment problem which is connected to problems of axiomatic field theory, integral representations of positive definite functions and kernels with an infinite number of variables. Infinite-dimensional elliptic differential operators are also studied. Particular consideration is given to second quantization operators and their potential perturbations, as well as Dirichlet operators. Applications to quantum field theory and quantum statistical physics are described in detail. Different variants of the theory of infinite-dimensional distributions are examined and this includes a discussion of an abstract version of white noise analysis. For research mathematicians and mathematical physicists with an interest in spectral theory and its applications.
