An S-Shaped Trail To Wall Street: Survival of the Fittest Reigns at the Stock Market (201 pages, $49, paperback, 1999, ISBN 29700021609) by Theodore Modis, Ph.D., published by Growth Dynamics. This book presents a new way of thinking about the stock market. You can understand the forces behind the stock exchange by treating stocks as species competing for investors' money, in the same way that rabbits compete for grass on a range. Survival of the fittest is more fundamental than speculation. Stocks compete for investors' dollars as species compete for food in nature. Price does not constitute a competitive variable because it does not correspond to some kind of "food" the way dollars and shares do. Dollars can be spent once. Shares can be bought by only one person at a time. There is nothing that prevents every stock from having the same price.

Intelligent Futures Trading (178 pages, $55 hardcover, 1997, ISBN 0930233638), by Chick Goslin, published by Windsor Books. Trading, especially futures trading, produces as few "champions" as any profession. Studies have shown that well over 85 percent of all traders end up losing. Yet, incredibly, every day tens of thousands of otherwise intelligent individuals attempt to compete in this extremely challenging profession of futures trading armed with little more than hunches. This book spells out the momentum-driven trading techniques that form the cornerstone of the author's personal market approach. His momentum method anticipates the direction and duration of imminent new "breaking" price moves by analyzing how quickly, or how slowly, price is changing in the market.
