Investment-Risk

This was a huge disappointment. The book is simplistic, disjointed, and offers nothing that even a novice could use. It has a feeling of being written quickly to cash in on the forex trading phenomenon. Look elsewhere for advice in particular anything by Jack Schwager or by Wiley Press, they are usually excellent.

If you have absolutely no knowledge of the Currency Markets then this book may be useful to you. The subtitle of the book is "Manage Risk and Reward in the Forex Markets by Learning How to:..."

Unfortunately, the overwhelming majority of the book is about Currency Futures and Options but NOT Forex.

This book is not worth the paper that it is printed on. Author does not know the subject, and does not offer any information that could not easily have been obtained online for free. Tried to contact author at his website to answer question and never responded. Classic example of take the money and run. Will never buy a book again from these authors nor from Prima Publishing.

Don't waste your time and money on buying this book. It's too easy, too simple and nothing is there that you have not known. Completely waste of money.

This book is replete with typographical errors - even the words "call option" written as "can option" - numerous times in an options book ??? !!! Shoddy publication!

Book is laid out well but the advice is humdrum. You'd be better off going to your local bookstore and thumbing through current investment magazines. Save your nickel!

This is only a few pages of discussion of volitility. Doesn't show how to calculate volitility, or how to really use volitility,is outdated, and time has proven it worthless. Its only value, is to tell us that Holders are more volitile than broad indexes like ETF's, and as volitility implies, any investment will go up or down in the next year.
