I have been a financial analyst for over 30 years, including two as a fund manager specializing in currencies and commodities with a strong focus on fundamental analysis. These two markets are driven by distinct forces that must be understood to trade profitably and consistently. Ignoring these dynamics leads to pure speculation rather than a solid approach. Over time, I realized how essential it is to move beyond short-term trading and base decisions on solid fundamentals. Through Trading with David (website and YouTube channel), I share my insights and analyses, helping traders develop a deeper understanding of market dynamics and make well-founded trading choices.
This is one of the most influential books on macroeconomics ever written. I found it particularly insightful because it explains the relationship between employment, interest rates, and money supply in a way that remains highly relevant today.
What I love about this book is how it challenges classical economic theories and introduces a more dynamic approach to understanding markets. Keynes’ insights into economic cycles and government intervention are invaluable for Forex traders who need to anticipate market reactions to fiscal and monetary policies. Even though it was written in the 1930s, many of its principles still shape modern economic thinking.
John Maynard Keynes (1883-1946) is perhaps the foremost economic
thinker of the twentieth century. On economic theory, he ranks with Adam
Smith and Karl Marx; and his impact on how economics was practiced,
from the Great Depression to the 1970s, was unmatched.
The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money was
first published in 1936. But its ideas had been forming for decades ? as
a student at Cambridge, Keynes had written to a friend of his love for
'Free Trade and free thought'. Keynes's limpid style, concise prose, and
vivid descriptions have helped to keep his ideas alive -…

Through Trading with David (website and YouTube channel), I share my insights and analyses, helping traders develop a deeper understanding of market dynamics and make well-founded trading choices.
I recommend this book because it provides a comprehensive and accessible guide to understanding the economic data that moves financial markets. It helps you refine your approach to fundamental analysis by teaching you how to interpret key indicators, such as the three pillars of macroeconomics: GDP, inflation, and employment data, crucial elements in Forex trading.
The author does an excellent job of explaining how these indicators impact currencies and how traders can anticipate market movements based on economic reports.
For years, investors, business strategists, and policymakers worldwide have turned to one book to help them translate the massive flow of economic data into knowledge for intelligent decision-making. The Wall Street Journal called this book "...the real deal," saying it "miraculously breathes life into economic indicators and statistics." That book is Bernie Baumohl's classic best-seller The Secrets of Economic Indicators. Now, in a brand-new Third Edition, Baumohl has thoroughly updated his classic to reflect the latest US and foreign economic indicators, and brand-new insights into what all of today's leading indicators mean. Baumohl introduces dozens of new, forward-looking economic markers,…

I appreciate this book because it provides a solid foundation for understanding global economic dynamics, which is essential for fundamental analysis in Forex trading. It helped me grasp the intricate relationships between trade policies, exchange rates, and macroeconomic forces, all of which play a crucial role in currency valuation.
What I found particularly valuable is the authors break down complex economic concepts into digestible explanations supported by real-world examples. The discussions on balance of payments, monetary policies, and capital flows gave me deeper insights into what truly drives currency movements.

A Duke with rigid opinions, a Lady whose beliefs conflict with his, a long disputed parcel of land, a conniving neighbour, a desperate collaboration, a failure of trust, a love found despite it all.

I deeply appreciate this book because it offers a firsthand account of the 2008 financial crisis from someone who was at the heart of it. Understanding the actions of central banks is fundamental for Forex trading, and Bernanke’s insights provide a clear view of how monetary policy decisions shape currency movements.
What makes this book invaluable is how Bernanke explains the rationale behind key interventions, including interest rate cuts and quantitative easing, and their impact on the global economy. His perspective helped me refine my approach to analyzing central bank policies and their influence on Forex markets.

Greg Morris created one of the first (if not the first) candlestick charting educational books a few decades ago and set the standard for learning about this technical analysis technique.
We had worked together on my newsletter for a period of time as he helped create some of the charts (non-candlestick) that I used. We became personal friends. One of the greatest honors for me is that he wrote the intro to my book. How can I not like him?

I am Rubén Villahermosa, independent trader and author. My logical and rational mind led me to question the why of market movements, which allowed me to learn the principles of the Wyckoff method. I have deepened in the study of the interaction between supply and demand through high-level Technical Analysis tools such as Wyckoff, VSA, Price Action, Volume Profile, and Order Flow; knowledge that I share through my books from principles of honesty, transparency, and responsibility.
In his book, David Weis explains the principles of the Wyckoff method from a more modern approach, adapted to today's markets.
Using simple but very powerful concepts (supports and resistance, Springs and Upthrust, effort vs. result), he gives us the necessary ideas to build our own winning trading system.
David also created his own indicator (Weis Wave), which is a great contribution to the trading community.
The definitive book on adapting the classic work of Richard Wyckoff to today's markets Price and volume analysis is one of the most effective approaches to market analysis. It was pioneered by Richard Wyckoff, who worked on Wall Street during the golden age of technical analysis. In Trades About to Happen, veteran trader David Weis explains how to utilize the principles behind Wyckoff's work and make effective trades with this method. Page by page, Weis clearly demonstrates how to construct intraday wave charts similar to Wyckoff's originals, draw support/resistance lines, interpret the struggle for dominance in trading ranges, and recognize…

Robert and I were friends and co-members of the Market Technician's Assn back in the late 1980s and I was honored that chose my Volume Reversal Indicator to be mentioned in the book.
I was a friend of Robert Colby and co-members of the Market Technicians Association and was personally honored he incorporated my VR (Volume Reversal) in his book. I also felt he was way ahead of the crowd in putting together such a comprehensive book and I wanted to honor him with a mention.

A lot can happen in a day and it can often be difficult to summarize.

I am the Founder of Stellar Wealth Partners, a SEBI-registered Research Analyst firm and small case manager for investors in the Indian stock market.

Some people love to make successful investing seem more complicated than it really is. In this anthology of essays and letters written between 2010–20, Terry Smith makes the case for simply buying the best companies in the world. These are businesses that generate large amounts of cash and know what to do with it in the form of sound capital allocation. The result is a powerful compounding of returns for the long term.
This book serves as a good reiteration of the thinking and principles underpinning Smith’s investing approach, including his three-step investment mantra: “Buy good companies. Don’t overpay. Do nothing.” It also highlights the nuances of the process, including why Smith favors return on capital employed (ROCE) and free cash flow (FCF) yield as metrics for assessing companies and why Smith is less enamored of measures such as earnings per share (EPS).
