The Disciplined Online Investor (260 pages, $29.95 hardcover, 2000, ISBN 007135994X), by Steven J. Hendlin, Ph.D., published by McGraw-Hill. As we enter the 21st century, easy access to once-proprietary trading tools and technical strategies has created a virtual trading revolution. Markets regularly skyrocket, and then plummet, with seemingly little rhyme or reason. Yet in all the media hype and analysis of these phenomena, one essential trader's tool remains unchanged -- and virtually ignored. That tool is the trader's mind. It is the trader's mind that moves the markets. This book introduces and explains vital psychological concepts as they relate specifically to the fast-moving high-risk, high-return arena of electronic trading. Conversational and free of jargon, this book will change the way you perceive the trading arena and make you a more perceptive online investor.

How To Trade Cattle Futures: (If Hillary Can Do It, So Can You!) (133 pages, $19.95 hardcover, 2000, ISBN 0967069750), by Clif Droke, published by Publishing Concepts. Move over, Internet stocks! If you enjoy trading, this book is for you. Cattle futures -- long the province of the "smart money" inside traders -- provide an excellent vehicle for consistently making money, year after year, in up or in down markets. That is because cattle futures (unlike most stocks and commodities) are highly seasonal and less subject to the prolonged "sideways" periods that characterize most traded securities. With the techniques given in this book, you could find yourself trading beside the big-money insiders. As a bonus, the parabolic analysis discussed in the book can be used for all traded securities.
