Publisher's summary

Very few careers can offer you the freedom, flexibility and income that active trading does. As a trader, you can live and work anywhere in the world. You can decide when to work and when not to work. You may only answer to yourself. That is the life of a successful day trader; but it is not easy to achieve and very few succeed.

In the audiobook, I describe the fundamentals of day trading, explain how day trading is different from other styles of trading and investment, and elaborate on important trading strategies that many traders use every day. I've kept the audiobook short so you can actually finish listening to it and not get bored by the middle.

For beginner traders, this audiobook gives you an understanding of where to start, how to start, what to expect from day trading, and how to develop your strategy. Simply listening to this audiobook, however, will not make you a profitable trader. Profit in trading does not come with listening to an audiobook or two or browsing online. It comes with practice, the right tools, and software and appropriate ongoing education.

Intermediate traders may benefit from the audiobook's extensive overview of some of the classic strategies that the majority of retail traders regularly use with proven success. If you think you are beyond the stage of a novice trader, then you may want to jump ahead and start reading from section number seven for an overview of the most important day trading strategies:

Day trading is not gambling or a hobby. You must approach trading very, very seriously. As such, I wake up early, go for a run, take a shower, get dressed, eat breakfast, and fire up my trading station before the markets open in New York. I am awake. I am alert. I am motivated when I sit down and start working on the list of stocks I will watch that day. This morning routine has tremendously helped my mental preparation for coming into the market. Whatever your routine is, starting the morning in a similar fashion will pay invaluable dividends.

• ABCD Pattern Trading
• Bull Flag Momentum Trading
• Top Reversal Trading
• Bottom Reversal Trading
• Moving Average Trend Trading
• VWAP Trading
• Support and Resistance Trading
• For each strategy, I explain:
• How to find the Stock in Play for trade
• What indicators I am using on my charts
• When I enter the trade
• When I exit the trade (profit taking)
• What is my stop loss

Day trading is not gambling. It’s not an online poker game. To be successful at day trading you need the right tools and you need to be motivated, to work hard, and to persevere. That’s How to Day Trade for a Living.

Hidden Gem and unrated!

As you trade you will understand how exceptional this book truly is!
I first listened to this audiobook while scrolling YouTube. Don’t waste your time on the YouTube versions. You won’t want to listen to the narrators. Plus this is the updated version.
Take notes on it and review it often

Consumer it in 6 hours

Thanks to audible, I was able to consume this (first round) in 6 hours while mowing the lawn, cleaning the house and working out.

I’ve read a couple of books about trading and trading psychology but this book had it all. Can’t wait to go through round two, but this time I’ll sit down with my hard copy. Round three will be when I really learn!

Good book on the truth about Day Trading .

The key is trade with the charts not with your heart. Don't trade with your emotions.

Incredible book wealth of information

Loved this book. I can't wait to take the next steps towards this process.

This dude is wicked smaht

Not a get rich quick scheme. Highly informative about all the aspects one needs to become a successful trader.

a listen worth repeating

I’ve learned so much from this book. I’ll be listening again several more times because I noted some denser material that is for more intermediate and experienced ears. I’ll also be listening to the Advanced edition as I grow in my day trading endeavors.

No regrets

Worth every penny, was all over place with trading plansl and strategy. This book has taught me to focus on the process of being consistent and profitable for the long run rather than making a quick dollar here and there, which of course often resulted in huge losses of capital. Thanks sir Andrew 🙏

Top Shelf Book

I believe this book has done the best job in breaking down the complex subject matter. 5 stars give a read!

So good on so many levels

This was an exceptional book on so many levels, While this edition focuses on day trading and has great value within this sector, I think it is a valuable resource for anyone interested in any sector of trading.

HERE IS MY BACKGROUND- I own some stock that I purchased blindly with no advice, no plan, no strategy; my timing was good and I made some good gains during covid (thank you Tesla) but I am now quickly realizing that most of my moves which are blind strokes are failing, I know nothing about trading and feel like I should know something. In talking with a friend recently we both got interested in trading. Our interest was in statistical trading, quick moves without knowing much about the fundamentals behind the companies being traded. After reading this book I realize day trading is not right for me; that alone made this book priceless for me! I will be listing to Andrews Swing Trading book next.

Let me get this out of the way first. The ONLY THING I DID NOT LIKE about this book which is petty, was the introduction. Honestly I almost lost interest in the first few minutes listening to the author talk about his mountain climbing and other personal aspects. I am glad a didn't give up that soon because once that first chapter was out of the way this book took off and got to the good stuff, moved fast, covered tons of material and stayed focused. Andrew, if you are listening, the intro almost lost me as a reader/listener; for how focused you are it really seemed mis-aligned with the book and immediately sent me off course.

THE WRITTING AND NARRATOR IS EXCEPTIONAL! The performance was perfect, hands down this book was an enjoyment to listen too.

While the book included many plugs for the author's paid service website for community trading, I think it aligned with the content and did not distract from the valuable content provided. No issue here but I figured I would mention it.

The best I can do TO SUMMARIZE THIS BOOK is: A comprehensive, fast paced, personal account of how one intelligent, motived, dedicated, disciplined person became and remains a successful day trader that includes the realist details of their significant trials and tribulations. Along the way I learned an immense amount about the stock market in general and feel I have a completely new understanding and respect for what day trading is. Don't get me wrong, I am following the advice in this book and I absolutely will not be jumping into any day trading relying only on what I learned here but if I ever do take on day trading this information will be invaluable while I learn and practice the trade.

DO NOT EXPECT to start successfully trading stock directly after listening to this book, and for that point, do not expect to start successfully trading stock directly after reading/listening to any "how to trade stock" book; even the best books are only primers to help you understand what you don't know. You still have to do the work to learn through practice trading, mentorship, planning and so much more.

DO EXPECT to have a significantly better understanding of many aspects of trading and a significant advantage to move forward with whether you are just starting or have been in trading for some time. Honestly, I think many of the insights and principles presented in this book can apply to much more in life than trading stocks.

TWO THUMBS UP for a tremendous amount of valuable information. well written with perfect narration.

Loved it

Gives you great insight into day trading. Makes you think twice before investing and not gambling.
