Book Description
More than 20,000 investors cashed in on the strategic sales secrets found in the first edition of this expert stock guide. Now, with the stock market at all time highs, even more readers are eager to identify the most opportune time to liquidate their stock positions and steer their investing decisions safely and profitably through a volatile stockmarket.An investor's success depends far more on when they sell a stock than on when they purchase it. And yet, most investors have a tendency to hold on to a stock far longer than is profitable. Brokers, too, have their own hesitations about advising clients to sell. The inescapable conclusion is that investors need help knowing when to cash in whether they are individual investors, stockbrokers, or money managers. It's When You Sell That Counts helps investors identify and overcome their resistance to selling stock and shows them how to earn the maximum profit through strategic selling. It also provides investors with practical advice on how to sell successfully in changing market conditions including a checklist to help investors decide if they should sell or hold in adverse markets.
It's When You Sell That Counts reveals for the first time:

Defensive trading techniques. Not for investors........2004-01-30
1. This book is focused only on "trading" and not investing. In other words, it seeks to maximize short term profits, and does not deal with the investor who is willing to take risks and ride out adversity and selling opportunities for a profit in the long term. Unfortunately, this orientation is not explained in the book description, and is only stated as a "by the way" on page 87. I probably would not have bought it if I had known this. For the investor, this book is of very limited value. It is hard for me to judge the value to traders, since I am not very knowledgable on the subject.
2. The bulk of this book is explanation of technical sell indicators. There is no attempt to connect between them, merely to catalog all the various "sell" signs. The fact that many of the indicators may contradict themselves with an individual stock is not dealt with.
On the positive side, the first part of the book lays out a laundry list of reasons why there is a bias against selling, ranging from the nature of the brokerage industry to behavioral economics. I found this part of the book very interesting and fresh, and it provided useful food for thought about my own patterns of selling. If you can find the book cheaply, it is worth the price for the first section alone, even if you are an investor and not a trader.
Selling Advice for Investors.......2002-10-22
Quite a good book.........2002-10-11
The comparison to the similarly titled book by Justin Mamis, in my opinion, is simply a coincidence. They are totally different books directed at different audience. I would put Mr. Mamis' book in the same category as the book by 'Tape Reading and Market Tactics' by Humphrey Neill.
Final thought.. if you buy this book (as a new investor) and find that the information is overwhelming. It is time to find a good money manager to do that on your behalf (check the Market Wizard books by Schwager). Investing is a costly game ..
Buy and Sell NOT Buy and Hold.......2002-05-06
Buying a stock or fund is relatively easy. There are legions of "experts" who will tell you what to buy. But buying is only half of the story. Selling, most experienced traders would argue, is more important. Selling preserves capital, reduces risks, and retains profits. Yet, it is very rare to find someone who will recommend when to sell an investment. The fact that Cassidy's book is one of the very few that addresses selling a stock makes it unique.
Cassidy addresses the common objections to the "buy and sell", as opposed to the "buy and hold" approach to stock investing, and also provides some guidelines on when to close out a trade.
If you decide to invest in individual stocks, you MUST read this book. Buy and Hold is for index funds. The buy and sell approach is a MUST for individual stocks. If you doubt that, think of Enron.

Advances in Dynamics and Control (Nonlinear Systems in Aviation, Aerospace,Aeronautics and Astronautics)
Manufacturer: CRC ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0415308526 |
Book Description
Nonlinear phenomena encountered in aviation and aerospace applications have stimulated cooperation among engineers and scientists from a range of disciplines. Developments in computer technology now allow solutions to many nonlinear problems, and industrial recognition of the use and applications of nonlinear mathematical models for solving technological problems is on the rise. Advances in Dynamics and Control clearly reflects the effectiveness of this interdisciplinary cooperation. This carefully edited volume contains research papers contributed by international experts that explore many new ideas, results, and research directions. These papers cover a wide range of topics, from rotorcraft dynamics, stabilization of unstable aircraft, spacecraft and satellite dynamics and control, missile auto-pilot and guidance design, hybrid system dynamics and control, intelligent control, neuro-fuzzy techniques, and structural and acoustic modelling.

Magnetoelectric Interaction Phenomena in Crystals: Proceedings of the NATO ARW on Magnetoelectric Interaction Phenomena in Crystals, Sudak, Ukraine from ... II: Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry)
Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 1402023898 |
Book Description
In the quest for higher data density in information technology manipulation of magnetization by other means than magnetic fields has become an important challenge. This lead to a startling revival of the magnetoelectric effect, which characterizes induction of a polarization by a magnetic field or of a magnetization by an electric field. The magnetoelectric crosslink of material properties opens just those degrees of freedom which are needed for the mutual control of magnetic and electric states. The book gives a state-of-the-art review on magnetoelectrics research, classifies current research tendencies, and points out possible future trends. Novel compounds and growth techniques and new theoretical concepts for the understanding of magnetoelectric coupling phenomena are introduced. Highlights are the discovery of "gigantic" magnetoelectric effects which are strong enough to trigger electric or magnetic phase transitions; the concept of magnetochirality; and development "structural" magnetoelectric effects in artificial multiphase compounds. The book is addressed to condensed-matter physicists with a particular focus on experts in highly correlated systems.
