Electronic Day Trading to Win

In this authoritative and educational guide to electronic day trading, experts Bob Baird and Craig McBurney cut through the media hype to reveal the truth about this revolutionary new form of trading: virtually anyone armed with the new generation of inexpensive, user-friendly digital trading technology now has the power to make markets and reap rewards traditionally enjoyed exclusively by the big brokerage housesA—provided they are fully trained.

Following a preliminary review of market basics, the authors cut to the chase with a complete hands-on tutorial in all practical aspects of electronic day trading. They introduce you to SOES and electronic communication networks (ECNs), and show you how to use them to execute trades instantaneously, thereby eliminating excessive broker fees and poor fills due to lag-times between order placements and executions. In addition to walking you through such nuts-and-bolts issues as the computer trading screen setup and assessing trading rooms, the authors provide priceless pointers on how to anticipate the impact of the news on the marketplace and exploit the subtleties of trading psychology. Baird and McBurney also explore various day trading strategies and stylesA—such as market timing, scalping, momentum, and swing tradingA—and help you successfully adopt the ones best suited to your personality and goals.
