A 'must read'." --Harvey Houtkin, CEO, All-Tech Investment Group and author of Secrets of the SOES Bandit"If you're going to start trading, start here. And, if you don't know a Level 2 screen from a Short List, then don't go further without reading this book. Sunny Harris has put together a great resource that will save you time and work, and added common sense that could only come from a successful, experienced trader. --Perry Kaufman, author of Trading Systems and Methods By now, you've probably heard lots of stories about the thousands of individuals worldwide who, armed with little more than their PCs, are making a living day trading stocks online. Could electronic day trading be your ticket to financial independence? Here's your chance to find out. Written by Sunny J. Harris, a successful electronic trader and one of today's most respected trading educators, Electronic Day Trading 101 is a complete step-by-step introduction to online day trading--what it is, how it works, and how to get started in business for yourself--and succeed.

With dozens of illustrations and real-life examples, Harris fills you in on what you need to know about trading hardware and software, selecting an online broker or ECN, opening a trading account, developing a trading system that's right for you, trading from home or from a trading salon, performing fundamental and technical analysis, and researching stocks online.

Summary: I'd return it, if I wanted to waste more time because of it.
Review: A 350-page book of which the last 238 pages are appendices, a glossary, and an index. 125 pages of the appendices are nothing but a listing of NASDAQ stocks, symbols, and sectors. Buy IBD instead for $1.00. Including the first 112 pages, you will find much info, but very, very little substance and discussion. It's but a compendium of data. Don't buy this book, if you are seeking knowledge about how to trade.

Summary: almost worthless for someone trying to start out
Review: I am a new investor buying stocks I believe will grow within the next couple years. I enjoy both fundamental and technical analysis (again I am a newbie at this too) but I was interested in doing a little more aggressive trading such as short-term or day-trading. This book is WORTHLESS. It will only wet your appetite but to pay ... for this is a ripoff. Please DO NOT WASTE your hard earned money on this book. She pads this thing with the listing of EVERY Nasdaq listed stock and loads of other junk. It is insulting. There are less than 100 pages of info that actually tell the reader anything and that didn't even tell me much. This isn't a 101 course or an overview. This is a "class description" found in a college enrollment catalog stretched out over 342 worthless pages. I returned it the next day (read it in about 2 hours) and purchased Toni Turner's "A Beginner's Guide to Day-Trading." I have not read it yet so I cannot recommend it to anyone. If you are going to day-trade, please DO NOT think that one book is going to make you a trader. Trading is not a "get rich click" method. Read all that you can get your hands on and practice your technique.

Summary: Ripped off!!
Review: I couldn't believe that I bought this crap. I didn't learn anything from this book. It has so little content. Most of the book is an appendix listing the stocks on the Nasdaq. This is most likely an attempt to make money from the day trading craze. I bought this because of the last few glowing recommendations but they must have been paid to write it. DON'T BUY THIS BOOK. There are better ones out there that provides better details on day trading.

Summary: Hoodwinked?
Review: I thought this would be a referance book on electronic daytrading software and how to apply the information gleaned from it. The main point of the first 100 pages was to tell the different places I might find the information I expected to have been in the book. Then there are over 200 pages of appendices listing the different stock exchanges, a list of compainies on the Nasdaq, etc. This would not have been worth the price if it had been a five dollar paperback.

Summary: A Very Well Written Book for the Beginner/Intermediate Level
Review: It is unfortunate for the rest of us, that Amazon allows uneducated people to review the books they sell. Anyone who has been to college knows what a '101' level course is. Apparently, the previous three reviewers lack the education and/or mental wherewithal to objectively write about someone else's writings. An educated person knows that each author writes with a specific purpose in mind. That said, let me say a few works about this book. It is an introductory level work which assumes that the reader is starting with a limited knowledge about buying stocks. Yes it does contain a number of appendixes, but the information is useful if you don't already have it, and it is all in one place. There is a list of on-line brokers, sources of information and so on. There is useful information about how to get started in day trading. After you have digested this book, you can move on to others which contain more advanced stratagies. In some ways, you might consider this book as a small encyclopedia of day trading. I liked it.

Summary: An execllent book by a master trader.
Review: Sunny Harris is a row model in the professional trading community. Her devotion to educating the public is present in her latest AWESOME work ~ Electronic Day Trading 101. This book is the perfect book for all who consider electronic day trading. I recommend this book as the book to start with. The book contains excellent information in regards to trading online and should answer many of the beginner's questions and teach her valuable lessons. This is a great investment. You may also want to consider another great book "Stock Trading Wizard" by Tony Oz If you are seriously thinking about trading for a living. I bought it myself after Sunny Harris recommended it as the best thing at the last Daytrading Expo. This book is more expensive, but I think it is well worth it. These two books should arm you with all the information you need to trade online. I'd like to thank Sunny for all the hard work and outstanding contributions to the day trading community. We wish you continued success. Thank you for a great book.

Summary: Required reading for survival/success
Review: Sunny Harris' book, "Electronic Day Trading 101", had me up all night reading, finishing, and re-reading it again and again from cover to cover. I just couldn't put it down, and like my old college textbooks, is hi-lighted, and covered with "Post It Notes". Sunny explains the ins, outs, and whys in a clear and easy to read format. I find that this book would be helpful to anyone thinking about getting into or is already into day trading. This is a book that I've already recommended to many of my associates, friends, family, and clients. "Electronic Day Trading 101" is a must have to add to any day trader's or investor's library. If I could only have one book on day trading/investing, this would be the one. There are, of course, other books which specialize in certain aspects and theories of trading but for the nitty gritty basics and beyond, Sunny Harris' EDT101 has it all. My Christmas wish for now is that Ms. Harris comes out with a sequel to DT101, but then again, I guess that'll be a hard act to follow.

Summary: No substance, a waste of paper
Review: The book starts with 112 pages of very basic information, information for the totally clueless newbie. If you have more than 3 months of investment experience or if you've read 2 beginner daytrading books or if you've surfed investment sites the last 3 months, you won't learn anything new here. The next 200 pages are references, website addresses, and stuff that belongs in a phone directory. Page 189 to page 313 is a listing of NASDAQ stocks!?!?!? All it shows is the ticker symbol, company name and which sector the company belongs to. NOTHING ELSE!!! I would have rated it zero stars if Amazon.com had such a rating. This book is all bun and no burger, I read my copy at the library (313 pages in half an hour). Leave this PoS on the shelf!!!!!
