The trading education market seems to be a lucrative field for such people. Considering that trading is a skill where if you can make $100 a day, you can scale up to $100,000 to $100 million a day with the same technique, same exact effort.

The fact that characters like this only seem to appear at trading seminars, trading expos, trading books, and other non-real trading events should inform you where their real profit center is. George Soros just bought half a billion in Gold ETF shares, would I trust his decision... absolutely. He is a real trader, has made billions trading, and last time I checked, he doesn't offer seminars or systems.

This book, along with the other series of products, is targeted to the most naive of traders. The ones who haven't figured out that in this business, if you know how to trade, you become a billion dollar trader... if you don't know how to trade, you become a guru and sell this kind of nonsense on the seminar circuit.

I've taken classes and actively trade the Forex market. Kathy's book contains many trading strategies and a simple example to explain how each strategy works. But like anything in Forex, you need to take the time to examine her strategy and "backtest, backtest, backtest" to see if it works for you. Her philosophy is to be consistent and go for hits, not go for home runs. As the saying goes; pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered. I feel limiting risk is one of the keys to being a successful trader (which Kathy continually stresses); also trading with consistency and knowing why you make the trades you make. There are so many different strategies presented that you have to choose what fits your personal investing sytle. There are not chapters devoted to in depth explanations for any particular strategy, so if you want details you will have to do additional study. The book gave me several profitable strategies that I still use. I would recommend this book as ONE of several. With trading one is always learning.
