( SFO Magazine , June 2009) "...has written this guide to trading in the foreign exchange (forex) market for both novices and experienced professionals. The author explains the fundamental mechanics of the forex markets before launching into the various strategies and insights that have been proven successful in the field." ( Book News , May 2009) "The book is very well suited to the novice trader. The primer on technical analysis offers a great review for CMT candidates. More experienced traders in stocks, bonds, or commodities will benefit from the book's comprehensive explanation of the mechanics in the market. ( mta.org (market technician's association), April 28th, 2009) "Chen's book is the perfect source of knowledge for those who haven't ever traded currencies. Clearly explained, Chen's easy to read style show that he knows what professional currency trading is, focusing on the important aspects that every trader should know. The book covers all important Forex trading related topics." ( fxstreet.com , March 11, 2009)
