$20,000 to $2 million in only three years— the greatest stock-picker you never heard of tells you how you can do it too Chris Camillo is not a stockbroker, financial analyst, or hedge fund manager. He is an ordinary person with a knack for identifying trends and discovering great investments hidden in everyday life. In early 2007, he invested $20,000 in the stock market, and in three years it grew to just over $2 million. With Laughing at Wall Street, you'll see: •How Facebook friends helped a young parent invest in the wildly successful children's show, Chuggington—and saw her stock values climb 50% •How an everyday trip to 7-Eleven alerted a teenager to short Snapple stock—and tripled his money in seven days •How $1000 invested consecutively in Uggs, True Religion jeans, and Crocs over five years grew to $750,000 •How Michelle Obama caused J. Crew's stock to soar 186%, and Wall Street only caught up four months later! Engaging, narratively-driven, and without complicated financial analysis, Camillo's stock picking methodology proves that you do not need large sums of money or fancy market data to become a successful investor.

"Look at market fluctuations as your friend rather than your enemy; profit from folly rather than participate in it." —Warren Buffett Investors shouldn't hate the market because of its up and downs. They should capitalize on it—and give a middle finger to those brokers wasting their time (and money) buying and selling, viewing investing as just buying stocks and not taking ownership of a company. In this book, Joe Ponzio gives an "f-you" to Wall Street and teaches you how to become a sharp value investor who uses economic downturns to your advantage. By buying into companies you believe in—but that may be selling for less than their intrinsic value, like high-end retailers in a weak market and discount retailers in a strong one—you will profit from their long-term performance. It's the perfect guide for anyone fed up with Wall Street's bull.

It’s strange to observe that in an age where information is so abundant and easy to access, a very small number of investors understand how to use stock charts. Many believe that the up-and-down level of a share is strongly connected to a company’s profitability. Either because of doubt or a lack of understanding, most traders and investors trust their friends, colleagues or pseudo-specialist gurus to help them make good trading and investment choices. This book has been written to help the new traders who trust blindly in those close to them, their colleagues or financial gurus, and want to understand chart patterns before investing in stocks. “Awesome book, Great buy! Great quick reference guide! Covers all the most popular TA patterns & indicators in short, quick and to-the-point layout.” –Nancy Arsi Stock Market Investing for Beginners Technical Analysis for Beginners Part One is easy to understand, and it addresses the people who want to use tools that allow detection of buy-and-sell signals. This book includes more than 100 examples, figures and tables that will help understand investments visually. Several stock market charts show entry points, exit points and even false signals. Learning How to Be an Intelligent Investor The best way to foresee the future is to analyze the past. This book is a guide to avoiding many traps in the financial markets. I will show you how to use the stock market charts and how to enrich them with indicators, which will allow you to enter and exit the market at the right time. “Loads of great information!! There is lot of information contained in this book!!! I plan on this being my bible for the next several weeks.” -BC Hanson Know How to Spot the Market’s Trend Numerous examples show you how to highlight the trend, the support, the resistance and the trend channel, as well as the positive and negative divergences and the candlestick patterns. Identify Breakout and Breakdown on the Financial Markets The term “breakout” is associated with multiple upward figures and marks the debut of a new rising trend. Learn to detect and use breakout to make good selections of stocks. Identify Bullish and Bearish Patterns Some patterns allow anticipating a configuration or a trend reversal. The examples are improved with comments and symbols that facilitate comprehension. “Beginners will benefit the most of this book.” -J. Olea Know How to Use the Different Types of Indicators There are a great number of technical indicators. New ones are created each year. However, you should limit their use and make a choice among the four families of indicators that follow: Trend indicatorsMomentum indicatorsVolatility indicatorsVolume indicatorsTrading in the Zone and Avoid Traps Technical analysis cannot guarantee 100 percent success. The traps can be detected on a graph, but they can also come from the ones that make purchase recommendations to you, such as people that provide pump-and-dump scenarios or stock promoters from the web. Graphic analysis of the shares is essential before any investment. Trading Psychology It’s difficult to leave your emotions aside when your portfolio has lost 10 percent in just one day. Don’t put yourself in vulnerable situations. Keep your emotions balanced by investing at the appropriate moment.
