The Complete Guide to Currency Trading & Investing: How to Earn High Rates of Return Safely and Take Control of Your Financial Investments REVISED 2nd Edition Kindle Edition

While I liked the general information in the book, I found it very basic regarding Forex. [...] A fair to good basic discussion of Forex, but lacking in usable information to actually trade with. The discussions of technical indicators is very weak. On page 167 it discusses the "Head and Shoulders Pattern." It defines the left shoulder, the right shoulder, and the Head, but does not say what the pattern means or what a trader could use the pattern for. I would not recommend the book to anyone who is seriously trading the Forex market.

This is a disappointing book. It promises a lot and delivers little. There is not much in this book that a college sophomore who has taken micro and macro economics would not know about markets, the CPI, the GDP, and so on as it impacts the currency of the United States and how similar indicators work in other nations. A survey of the FED and the US banking system as well as those of the G8 nations takes up about the first half of this book.The section on fundamental analysis is similarly sophomoric in its explanations. The section on technical analysis, while it describes various patterns, charts and other tools does not show ONE graph as an example to spirit the discussion and enhance one's understanding of what is a complex topic.This books gets a D+ and should only be your first choice only if you are completely unaware of the economic drivers in major nations.

Bought this for my husband who was learning to trade. He absolutely loved it.

Basic information

I wish I had burnt some bucks and never bought this scam book. The only thing that the author thought about is how can I make money when I failed badly in real trading, I don't know how he was allowed to publish this scam. The name of the book is another story (The complete guide to ....etc) this book - honestly - doesn't cover %1.95 of the market. Actually it doesn't speak about any thing. very poor and lousy book. I waited more than a month to receive the book and then finished reading it in 19 minutes.My advice to you is do any thing with your money but purchasing this scam book. otherwise you'll writing a similar comment like mine after receiving it.

Forex Market is one of the biggest places in the world where you can make money. I mean, real money. I recommend this book to all of the traders, or future traders who really want to make money. Buy it! You will not regret. Serious

Basic review of the world banking systems and how they function.

As someone without any knowledge of investing whatsoever, I was curious about currency trading and wanted to learn the basics of such with an easy to read, easy to understand book. "The Complete Guide to Currency and Trading Investing (How to Earn High Rates of Return Safely and Take Control of Your Investments)" by Jamaine Burrell provided just that along with a wealth of practical information for any beginning investor.With planning and research as a big part of investment trading, this book introduced me to the FOREX market (of which I've never heard of previously). Burrell examined U.S. and European markets, as well as including sections on many major foreign currencies such as Canada, Japan, Switzerland, and Australia, along with the minor currencies of New Zealand, South Africa, and Singapore."The Complete Guide to Currency and Trading Investing (How to Earn High Rates of Return Safely and Take Control of Your Investments)" by Jamaine Burrell is a great resource book; the Key to Abbreviations was very helpful as I read along but it would have been helpful to have a glossary as well.
