What is Novice Traders' Notebook?

Many of our readers have suggested that a brief explanation of some of the concepts and tools of technical analysis would be useful to novice traders in helping them improve and expand their trading knowledge. With that in mind, we introduce the Novice Traders' Notebook, an ongoing and continually broadening series of topics explained in concise terms with clear visual examples.

My last issue didn't arrive. My newsstand doesn't carry it. What do I do?

In the United States, subscription copies of Working Money are sent via the United States Postal Service. The USPS has heavily automated mail delivery, which has occasionally led to slower and rougher treatment of some periodicals. We mail replacement copies to subscribers if the magazine has not been received by the 15th of the month of the cover date.

Where can I find Working Money on the newsstand?

Newsstands themselves determine whether to carry a magazine. If your local newsstands aren't carrying Working Money, request that they do. You'll probably have to wait a little bit, however. Your newsstand will have to make an order with its wholesaler, which, in the United States, will then make an order from one of two national distributors who are authorized to handle Working Money. This process can take time.
Working Money is distributed to many bookstore chains, of which Barnes & Noble is the largest.

I live outside the US, and delivery of my magazine is really SLOW. What can I do?

Outside of the US and Canada, surface mail delivery -- our standard method of sending subscription copies overseas -- most often takes from 6 to 8 weeks. You are probably very familiar with the reliability of your country's own postal service. We cannot guarantee an exact time, but, knowing the above, we hope that our non-US subscribers will receive their copy of the magazine by the 15th of the month following the magazine issue cover date.
If this does not match your experience, or if you would like to receive your magazine closer to cover date, you may upgrade to air mail delivery. In many cases, air mail means you will receive your magazine as much as 4 weeks earlier. To upgrade an existing subscription to air mail in Mexico, South America, and Europe requires an additional fee of US$10.50 per year. To upgrade an existing subscription to air mail in the Pacific Rim and Africa requires an additional fee of US$24.00 per year. Those fees will be pro-rated for partial years. If you are planning to subscribe and will want to order air mail service, the cost is US$25.50 per year in Mexico, South America, and Europe; US$39.00 per year in the Pacific Rim and Africa.
Please let Circulation know if we can be of any further service.

How may I submit my new product for review in Working Money's

The editors will assign submitted products to either format based on criteria such as the complexity or comprehensiveness of a product; whether the product is new or a minor upgrade; its uniqueness and popularity among our readers; appropriateness for our audience; and scheduling logistics.
We try to acknowledge all material received within three weeks of receipt. The actual review process usually takes a month or two but may take up to six months, after which a tentative publication date will be assigned.

When submitting products for possible review, send exactly what a customer purchasing your software would receive (no beta versions, include all packet material, manuals, etc.). That way, we will see exactly what the customer sees and we can evaluate the product most fairly for our readers. Please also include:

A press release or descriptive paragraph (please make sure the price of the product is listed)

A demo disk

Any marketing brochures that describe your product

Five names and phone numbers of customers who have purchased the product.
