Summary: Worth It's Weight in Gold!! ....
Review: I disagree with the dissenters!I usually find these Amazon customer reviews useful, especially the dissenters who rate a book poorly. HOWEVER .... in this case, I think they are WAY off base on this little gem of a book. This book is worth it's weight in Gold, in my opinion. David Stendahl, who used to be associated with RINA Systems (...), he's independent now, presents some of the most sophisticated, important .... yet little talked about, concepts in finance! --- specifically money management in a very straightforward, accessible manner. So why the bad ratings? ..... because a) this is NOT easy material to apply (however David's book is an easy read), b) it requires some special tools (i.e. RINA Systems software which works with TradeStation (...) -- although the concepts can be understood without the software) and c) this topic is covered almost nowhere else (Ralph Vince has written three books on Optimal f and Ryan Jones book on Money Mgmt being exceptions). I respect original thinking. Stendahl .... RINA Systems ... and a rare few others, like John Ehlers (MESA & Trading Market Cycles and Rocket Science For Traders) are original thinkers. Give this book a chance ... do some research (RINA Systems .... MESA, etc.) ..... and you'll likely find an entirely new world open up before your eyes.

Summary: Useless & Vague
Review: The information in the book is so vague that you learn nothing about the topics. The book seems to be more of an advertisement for websites, sofware etc. A short and useless read.
