Another forex book with NO statistical evidence that these patterns are profitable. I could write 1000′s of books like that.
If a trading book does not back up its claims with some serious backtests then it goes directly to my “refund section”, no matter how clever the patterns look at first glance.

I applied the authors strategies and I lost money. I went back to my old ways and made money. If your way is not broken then why try something else?

Ed Ponsi said at the begining of his book that he had read dozens of trading books and each had a kernel of truth surrounded by filler. He also said that if he wrote a book, it wouldn’t be like that. Unfortunately he goofed. He wrote a book exactly like that. There are a few steller nuggets of wisdom, but they aren’t worth the price of the book.
Currency Trading for Dummies is a far superior introduction to forex than Ed Ponsi’s book. Ed Ponsi focuses on technical analysis (just barely) while the dummy book actually introduces you to both fundamental and technical analysys as well as money management. A much better start at becoming what Ed Ponsi calls a “triple threat trader”.
Plus the dummy book has suggested reading at the end for further study, while Ed Ponsi only mentions one other book in the middle of one chapter. Suggested reading, bibliographies, and end notes are very important indicators on how serious the author is about his or her subject.
Ed Ponsi sounds like a nice guy, and a knowledgable guy at that. I think that is why there are so many positive reviews. But Ed Ponsi’s book just doesn’t cut the mustard.

Book providing an overview of the forex market and some simple strategies. A book for beginners. If you have read other similar books, give this one a skip.
