Get the odds on your side - Read this book
Making money in the markets has never been easy. This book improves your chances by examining 7 strategies which are easy to understand and implement. Each strategy is explained in a concise manner with the advantages and disadvantages explained. The technical challenges and solutions for each strategy are outlined in detail. Indicator tools are used to define each strategy in a very practical way.

What makes this book a real winner are the many charts and indicators illustrated, which back up each strategy leaving the reader in no doubt as to what to look for when trading each method.

As well as the 7 strategies there is also a section on "investing rules that really count" together with "The Spread Betting Investor Mind Set".
Those sections alone are worth the price of the book.

Good Stuff
This is a straight forward and clearly spelt out guide that gives you the detail necessary to follow 7 different strategies. This makes it possible to find one for any state of the market. As the book only illustrates the strategies using weekly data the trades are expected to last a matter of weeks or months and once set with stops in place there is no requirement to be glued to the computer following every twist and turn of the market. Each strategy follows a simple template which will hopefully make it easy for the trader to place trades and stops in a disciplined manner. Stress is laid on the importance of position sizing. An excellent book for anyone who is serious about making money in the markets.

Excellent - overall the best book for spreadbetting
This is an excellent little book, written in an easy to follow style with plenty of common-sense tips.

This book is targeted at people who have some understanding of (and prerably experience in) spreadbetting - this is not an absolute beginners book. If you are a complete novice, attend one of the free seminars run by the spreadbetting firms to gain some background.

I really can't recommend this book highly enough - it will pay for itself in no time by delivering profits or saving you from expensive mistakes.
