After reading this book and piecing together all of the commonalities therein, you'll begin to understand what it takes to be successful in the markets.

Roche, Founder and CEO, Orsus Investments, LLC; Proprietor of Pragmatic Capitalism ?The latest addition to the ?little book big profits? series, Michael W. Covel's The Little Book of Trading: Trend Following Strategy for Big Winnings looks at the financial world through the eyes of successful trend traders ? What Covel stresses throughout the book are the accompanying principles that make trend following viable: stick to your plan and manage your risk through diversification, stop placement, and position sizing. These are important principles for any kind of trading, but for trend following they are critical ? Successful trend following traders try to capture the outliers, the really big moves that more than compensate for the many small losses they take. This goal requires traders to have confidence in their systems and confidence in themselves. By introducing the reader to successful trend traders, Covel believes that some of their ?magic? just might rub off.' ?Seeking Alpha

    The book was OK. I was looking more for help on strategies. This book has no strategies in it, specific ones that is. Each chapter covers the history of a group of traders that have been successful. But once you read the first couple of chapters, it just seems redundant. This was my fault I guess, I wanted strategy help, and this book just covers the history and some of the mindsets of successful traders.
