Synopsis
" The Nature of Trends by Ray Barros is one of the finest introductions to trading Ive yet encountered. Clearly and concisely, Ray lays out principles for assessing and trading markets, emphasizing congestion ranges, trends, and the interplay of these across time frames. Examples and charts bring the ideas to life, emphasizing practical application of ideas ranging from market profile to wave patterns. This is a book not only to be studied, but savored." Brett N. Steenbarger, Ph.D. Clinical Associate Professor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences Author, The Psychology of Trading and Enhancing Trader Performance "After spending over a decade in the financial services industry, particularly focused on technical analysis, I have seen many traders over-complicate what should be a straight forward pursuit. The Nature of Trends by Ray Barros will bring you back to the most fundamental (and often forgotten) rules of trading, which is to identify the trend and then trade within it. I would recommend that every serious trader read this book at least once a year as adopting the simple strategies in this book can help you to flow with the market instead of fighting against it." Mathew Verdouw Managing Director Market Analyst Software " The Nature of Trends by Ray Barros is a book for serious traders. A trader always searches for information, but the serious ones search for in-depth knowledge which can only be found in Rays book. Rickey Cheung Author, The Trading Edge, How to Trade Like a Winner "In The Nature of Trends , the author reveals valuable concepts for profiting from a clearer understanding of market structure and the probable duration of tradable trends. Theres no fluff, filler, or old rehashed ideas in this refreshing volume on market dynamics. Novice and advanced trader alike will benefit from this comprehensive and enlightening study." Don Schellenberg Senior Market Strategist NextView Pte. Ltd. "Identifying and monitoring trends in the market is a key skill in any successful trading campaign. Rays in-depth analysis and insights make The Nature of Trends a must read for those who are taking trading seriously." Geoffrey Sawyer General Manager CMC Markets Singapore Pte. Ltd., Todays market participants have a myriad of tools at their disposal. Yet the success rate is that of old - 80% to 90% of traders fail to achieve their financial goals. This book shows traders how to get their investment act together., Today's market participants have a myriad of tools at their disposal.

    I must say from the very beginning of this transaction that everything went smooth. The seller gave me a good quality product for a great price that was brand new and appeared to be better than what was pictured. I plan on purchasing more products in the near future from this seller. The product was shipped and packaged with care and love. Magnificent communication and all of what I said makes this seller a great asset to the eBay community as well as the marketplace.
