Rating:  Summary: Well Done Review: I have looked to buy a swing trading book such as this one for long time. I do not have time or energy to engage in day trading so day trading books did not fit my needs. I could care less about any of the how-to-invest books on the market. This book was the perfect fit. It contained all of the tools and strategies for swing traders. It helped me immediately to understand the short term price volatility and movement. Well Done.
Rating:  Summary: Sarkovich Review Review: I read a lot about stock trading, maintain a portfolio and occasionally do what I now know to be "swing trading". After reading the authors first book, "Electronic Day Trading Made Easy I did not hesitate purchasing his second "Electronic Swing Trading for Maximum Profit". I was correct in doing so. As expected, the swing trading book was well written and organized and easy to understand. All illustrations were sharp and professionally done. The author expanded the material to include additional technical analysis tools and trading alerts for the short-term traders, as well as the new material on fundamental analysis and IPOs. There is a lot of good stock trading information packed in this book for the beginners as well as the seasoned traders, including the appendix list of the best swing trading stocks in 2000. I particularly liked the author's objectivity and honesty. He did not succumb to temptations of being the trading industry promoter. This book is clearly not one of those "how to get rich quick" books. The risks of swing trading were well disclosed, as well as the tools for managing such risk. I have recommended the book to friends active in the stock market.
Rating:  Summary: The most complete guide on stock trading Review: I try to read most of the new books on stock trading. I enjoyed Dr. Sarkovich's book "Electronic day trading made easy" and thus I did not hesitate purchasing his new book "Electronic swing trading for maximum profit". And I was correct. As expected, the swing trading book was well written and organized and easy to understand. Again, all book illustrations were sharp and professionally done. The author expanded the material to include additional technical analysis tools and trading alerts for short-term traders, as well as the new material on fundamental stock analysis and IPOs. Everything seems to be there-- from trade order executions to tax considerations. There is a lot of good stock information packed in the book for both the stock market beginners as well as the seasoned traders. For instance, the book included an appendix with the list of the best swing trading stocks in 2000. Most importantly, the author moved the focus of the book closer to the investment center. The book now presents valuable trading information that appeals both to active investors, that might hold the stock position for a few weeks or days, and active day traders, who might hold the stock position for a couple of hours or minutes. I particularly liked the author's objectivity and honesty. The author wrote a responsible book. The author did not succumb to temptations of becoming the industry promoter. This is clearly not one of those "how to get rich quick" books. The risks of swing trading were well disclosed, as well as the tools for managing such risks. I do recommend this book for anyone active in the stock market without any reservations.

Rating:  Summary: Waste Of Money!! Review: Iam looking for a good book and this one is a real waste of money. First 12 chapters are very general. If you want a hardcore book on swing trading this not the one for you.
Rating:  Summary: Electronic Swing Trading for Maximum Profit Review: If you are not ready to give up your day job to become a day trader then this is the book for you. I read Dr. Sarkovich's first book on day trading and learned a tremendous amount. However as the author points out, it is a full time commitment. Swing trading expands your time horizon from a few days to a few weeks with fewer trades. This is ideal for someone who wants to make additional profit but at a more manageable pace. I have started to trade based on the information in this book and so far things are going well. I would heartily advise reading this book before pushing the button on your new electronic trading account.

Rating:  Summary: very helpful to novice Review: Now that I am retired I would like to day or swing trade.Both of Dr.Sarkovich's books have helped me tremendously to understand the difference between the two.The technical analysis is very clear and easy to comprehend,even for a novice.I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in trading.
Rating:  Summary: I found it! Review: One of the best on the subject I have read... and I have read a lot. I particually enjoyed his charting and mathmatical explorations. Very good analysis on the importance and uses of MACD, EMA, and Bollinger Bands. This book took my trading to a new level.
Rating:  Summary: one & only transaction March 2004 Review: Order: Book of Angels, Stephen King: The Dark Tower, II, & Bruce Springstein, CD. Attempted to change order, next day for something else. I cannot edit or add to an order. That was a forced purchase. I am never purchasing from Amazon.com, again.
