Product Description

In this book, Joe Krutsinger, author of the "Trading Systems Toolkit", and Larry Williams, along with 13 other well-known professional traders answer direct questions about the systems they developed to beat the markets. Not mysterious "black box" systems that generate uncheckable buy and sell signals, these actual, coded systems with sample results are included in this book for you to try. Ready to be entered in TradeStation, these programs and the seminar-leading experts' advice would cost you many thousands of dollars if purchased separately.

1.0 out of 5 stars A reality check is in order, 19 Aug 1999

By A Customer

This book is based upon a sound premise. Interview the masters and note the details of their methodologies. Sounds like a great idea huh? Two problems though. None of the traders interviewed in this book can be deemed a "master". Secondly, no "master" would ever reveal his specific methodology. All of the traders in this book are nothing more than commercial system writers. Get that through your heads people! The only talented researcher out of the bunch and notice how I said researcher not trader is perhaps Nelson Freeburg. Systems have a very short life, so even if you do happen to come across a good one and even if you have the proper discipline to trade it, you will still probably fail. Do want to know why? Because markets are not static, they change. They are in a constant state of flux. Read the interview on William Eckhardt in "The New Market Wizards".

2.0 out of 5 stars Haste makes waste., 24 Jul 1998

By A Customer

This is one overpriced, poorly written, and generally careless book! In short, the book is made up of "interviews" with some of the leading designers of trading systems. Although many of the names will be familiar to system designers, there is little information that demonstrates that these people are indeed the best (returns, for instance). That is not the real problem here, though. The "interviews" are all alike; Krutsinger asks each person essentially the same canned questions. Unlike more astute interviewers, such as Jack Schwager, Krutsinger does not challenge any of the answers of the interviewees. What we are left with, then, are canned interviews that were not even done in the presence of an interviewer. Krutsinger himself sometimes writes awkwardly and unclearly and, in fact, commits many careless typos and other errors (JESSIE Livermore? I thought he was a GUY?!). The best part of the book, however, is Krutsinger's interview of tradi! ng master Larry Williams. This chapter alone may be enought of a reason to read this book, but don't expect much else. It seems that there was not much effort and time put into writing this book. Accordingly, readers might be wise to put forth about the same amount of effort.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Question/Answer technique is wonderfully explicit!, 2 Mar 1999

By A Customer

I really appreciated the question/answer technique used by the author at the beginning of this book. As you read the advice from seasoned professionals who have made livings by trading their own currency and bond systems, you (the reader) cannot help but be humbled that you are receiving such exact information at such a low price! This book includes some of the most notoriously fabulous commodities trading systems ever written, the wherewithal of how they came to be, and the mind-processes of their developers. A great book!
