The Basics of Successful Currency Speculation. V. Maksimov
The Forex currency market is the most popular among novice traders, this is not surprising; we deal with currencies every day, and we see securities only in movies.
Despite all this, it may not seem easy to buy a currency and then sell it for a profit, but even this simple type of trading has a lot of nuances.
Which is easiest to learn from a book than to gain experience from your own mistakes, especially if every mistake costs money.
Unfortunately, most books by Western authors are devoted to trading on the stock exchange; the foreign exchange market is not very popular there.
But recently, this gap in knowledge has been actively filled by domestic authors familiar with the Forex topic.
The book “Basics of Success in Currency Speculation” falls precisely into this category; in it you will find information about the market itself and the basics of trading on it.

Trading. Additional dimension of decision making, V. Safonov
Most textbooks on stock trading teach the technical side of the issue - the device of the terminal, how to open transactions and which asset to choose for this.
But there are quite a few books about market analysis itself and decision-making based on its results, that is, what is really important is given a minimum of attention.
Trading.
An additional dimension of decision making, a book written by Valery Safronov, a professional trader, teaches exactly how to conduct analysis in practice. It is more suitable for people who want to make trading their main job, as it will require some effort to read.
To make it clear what we are talking about, take a look at its contents:

"The Psychology of the Stock Market: Fear, Greed and Panic" by David Cohen
Surprisingly, all strategies and methods of market analysis are worthless without knowledge of the psychology of stock trading.
For some reason, it is this aspect that receives the least attention; most beginners begin their work by searching for secret strategies or tactics.

In most cases, people’s actions are controlled by three emotions - fear, greed and panic, and these are the ones that will be discussed in David Cohen’s book.
The book is quite large, so I would like to dwell only on the main points:
1. A thousand ways to remain without pants - the passion for speculation on the stock exchange is very reminiscent of the gold rush, the history of speculative manias.

This format was created as an alternative to PDF files when there is no need to recognize the content; in essence, it is just a program for combining photos into one document.
Unfortunately, the reader for reading djvu is not as widespread as the well-known Adobe Reader and you almost always need to download it yourself.
There are a lot of programs designed to read the format we are considering, but the one presented below is one of the simplest and least capacious.
Djvu reader is an absolutely free product that is completely safe, as it does not contain third-party files with viruses and Trojans.

Path of the Turtles. A story of dizzying success.
The story is about an experiment that dispelled the myths that only a person with a special education can trade on the stock exchange.
The experiment itself arose as a result of a dispute between two traders, one of whom argued that almost anyone could be taught to trade on the stock exchange, the second expressed the opposite opinion.
As a result, an announcement appeared in various printed publications that a group of students was being recruited to teach trading, and each of those who passed the selection would be given an amount of 1 million dollars.
It should not be forgotten that the events took place in 1983, when such an amount was worth much more than in our time.
More than 1,000 people responded to the advertisements, of which forty were selected; you can read what came of it in the book.
Secrets of stock trading (authors V. Tvardovsky, S. Parshikov.)
There are a lot of books written by great theorists in the field of technical or fundamental analysis.
It is quite rare to find a truly worthwhile publication written by an author who is familiar with stock trading, not from textbooks.
Secrets of Stock Trading can easily be attributed to one of these publications; its authors have been independently trading on the stock market for many years and can share with their readers the important nuances of trading.
The textbook will be especially useful for those who trade on the Russian stock market and are just beginning to get acquainted with stock trading.
At one time, the authors were also novice traders and faced the problem of finding the necessary information, so subsequently the idea arose to share their accumulated knowledge in their book.
