Product Description

From the Author
Praise for Spread Trading
"Spread Trading by Howard Abell serves a critical function in clearly delineating the mechanics of spread trading, as well as distilling the nuances of the concept with relevant, sucessful trading strategies involving spreading techniques...Spread Trading by Howard Abell strikes me as unique in the annals of technically oriented books." -Patrick H. Arbor, Chairman, Chicago Board of Trade

"Spread Trading fills a generational gap in knowledge about a market sector much neglected but pregnant with opportunity. In clearly demonstrating how spreading can enhance trading performance, Howard Abell's new! ! est book will appeal to the novice and experienced trader alike. Highly recommended!" -Jerry Toepke, Editor, Moore Research Center

1.0 out of 5 stars Financial authorship at its worst., 19 Mar 2005

By	Wally Jones "youoldboy" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Spread Trading: Low- Risk Strategies for Profiting from Market Relationships (Paperback)

Two hundred pages, the last hundred of which are interviews with other traders. Sixty pages of charts, many of which are not referenced in the text. The text is riddled with the cliches and anecdotes of the financial world which we have all read elsewhere.
Alarm bells were ringing by page 36 where Mr Abell declares his belief in Newton's Third Law -"a body in motion tends to stay in motion." Perhaps the Laws have different numbers in the USA. The book does not adequately cover strategies and for its inflated price, it is a very poor piece of authorship. I understand that Mr Abell is a successful trader. He should stick to it and leave writing to those more able.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best book I've seen on spreading futures, 2 Sep 1999

By A Customer

The focus of this book is to prepare you for trading spreads both psychologically & technically. It is not a cookbook advising how much ammo to buy or when to pull the trigger, but the guidelines and advice it gives are invaluable. I consider it the best book available on spreading futures.
