Naked Forex: High-Probability Techniques for Trading Without Indicators Hardcover - 2012 - 1st Edition

From the rear cover

Most forex traders lose because they persist in believing three myths of successful trading. Myth 1: successful trading must be indicator-based. Myth 2: successful trading must be complex. Myth 3: successful trading is dependent on the trading system. Well, it's time to get over these misconceptions and start winning, say authors Alexander Nekritin and Walter Peters in Naked Forex.

Long before computers and calculators, trading was handled without complex technical analysis and indicators. Trading was old school--based on using only price charts--and it was simple, profitable, and easy to implement. In Naked Forex, Nekritin and Peters show you how to successfully trade this way.

This lively, three-part book lays out the authors' techniques in detail. The first part walks you through the fundamentals of forex trading and establishes the ruling tenet of all naked forex trading: price is king. In Part Two, the authors share methods that lead to profits, including using resistance zones, price patterns, transitions, and such intriguing trade setups as Wammies, Moolahs, and the Last Kiss. In the last part of the book, you'll learn to understand your own trading psyche. Mastering your own attitudes toward risk, says coauthor Peters, who is also a PhD in psychology, is how you finally become a true professional trader.

Engaging and informative, this practical guide touches on many provocative topics, including:

• Is it possible to outwit some of the most determined, intelligent, and well-resourced traders in the world? Find out what it takes
• The concept of "zones" and the seven most important things you need to know about them
