chapter5

i found chapter 5 the must useful. the reader was a bit boring but manageable.
the whole info was a bit wage.

Somewhat useful, less than other books on trading.

The book seemed very dated for a book published 2020. There’s other authors that have given me more useful information and a occasional ah ha moment.

It's like listening to a theatrical dissertation

As a swing trader, was really excited to read/listen to this for some time. Book came recommended by a trading mentor, had been on my reading list.

Yes there are certainly nuggets of valuable information sprinkled throughout the text. But many of these are spun as idioms of trading advice, which is really unnecessary for a trading book. Example: how many times can "neophytes" be used repeatedly in a trading context?

Don't expect a ton of "actionable" advice, instead you'll get a ton of verbose content. After a while it gets a bit exhausting.

And there in lies the issue at the core of the book: it just comes off as if the author was just trying too hard to write an eloquent (?) book about swing trading. Which is completely unnecessary for the content.

As an audiobook, the theatrical performance of the narrator only highlights the unfortunate writing style even further - just listen to the "sample" to get a sense.

Caught myself feeling like I was listening to a highschool English teacher who just loved their job a little too much, and it only grew to make you dislike the content even more.

Was genuinely excited to read/listen to this book, but felt the need to warn others of what to expect.

This thing needs to be edited to either be written like a formal textbook, and then go ahead and use all the antiquated verbage you'd like; or cut back on the overcompensating wordage and turn it into a (great) straightforward trading book - which it could be.
