This is not my work but I found an electronic copy by an author who had kindly written up his summary notes of the Mark Douglas classic so I thought it would be useful to share on this forum.
As I said, this is not my work so take it's contents at face value, I thought this short summary would at least be useful for those who want a quick read of the main concepts of the book.
I have posted the full book in pdf. form elsewhere on this forum so please take the time to read it if you haven't. No excuses now it's there in all it's glory for you.
Enjoy
Cheers

Re: Trading In the Zone Summary
My favourite book of all! Trading in the Zone, I might have recommended it more times than my own boook. FACT. I wanted to write a detailed ebook on the mind side but when i read this book, i just don't feel the need to "re-invent the wheel". Just read this book. And this summary is awsome... Thank you. I'm sure you know that I recommend and have kept a printed framed copy of the Five Fundamental Truths and the 7 sub belief of consistently successful trading on my desk.bambino45 wrote:This is not my work but I found an electronic copy by an author who had kindly written up his summary notes of the Mark Douglas classic so I thought it would be useful to share on this forum.

What is the Secret of Successful Trading?
The Consistent Pursuit of DS1
The thing that makes me money in trading is when I "Objectively Follow my Trading Plan".
I understand that I can't catch all the moves or all the signals but my objective is to catch THE VALID SIGNALS & ONLY the Valid Signals.
My Deathbed Advice "5:1 Reward to Risk Ratio".
Yo, banana boy!

Re: Trading In the Zone Summary
Well if we keep banging the drum it migt just sink in to those that feel they may not need to read it. I would put hand on heart and say that whilst you may not NEED to read it you certianly NEED to be cogniscent of it's teachings. The fact that much wisdom is crammed into under 200 pages just makes it all the more remarkable.
If one more person reads it then it was worth posting on here, because that's one more person a giant step closer to acheiving their goals !
