This is an important book discussing the use of different strategies methods about trading. It was written by over 30 expert traders. The book was designed to help you develop your own trading edge in the markets to put you above others who don't have an edge and just trade by the seat of their pants. 90% of traders actually lose in the markets and the main reason is simply that they don't have an edge. All of the writers in this book are very experienced and knowledgeable of different ways. Each of them has their own expertise in trading the markets. What sets these traders apart from other traders? Many think that beating the markets has something to do with discovering and using some secret formula. The traders in this book have the right attitude and many employ a combination of fundamental analysis, technical analysis principles and formulas in their best trading strategies. This gives them a trading edge over other traders. If you want to be successful at trading, you too must have your edge. One needs to find successful trading strategies and implement them in their own trading method. The purpose of this book is to present to you the best trading strategies of these traders so that you might be able to select those that fit you best and then implement them into your own trading style. I wish to express my appreciation to all the writers in this book who made the book possible. They have spent many hours of their time and hard work in writing their section of the book and the putting together their video presentation for the online expo.

Coverage includes: Understanding the "other side of the trade": the thousands of pros you're trading against. Finding a technical edge with technical analysis you can exploit over and over again. Understanding sentiment and overcoming the human emotions and biases that cost you dearly. Utilizing the most essential strategies of fundamental analysis.

TRADE OPTIONS LIKE A SEASONED PRO! A Trading-Floor Veteran Shares his Secrets "What I like about Dan's book is that it's obvious he isn't just telling you how to trade, he's telling you how he trades. There's always a big difference between those who teach trading from an academic standpoint and those who have traded and have the ability to walk investors step by step through the trade. For my money, I always seek advice and counsel from those that walk the walk and Dan Passarelli has walked the walk." Jon Najarian, cofounder Trademonster.com On Dan Passarelli’s first day as a clerk on the exchange floor, he spent the morning observing, practicing his hand signals, and running errands. Around midday, the veteran clerk he worked with said to him, “You’re up. I’m going to lunch.” Dan survived his trial by fire and went on to spend many years on the trading fl oor. He credits his success as a trader and educator to the hands-on experience he gained throughout his career. With The Market Taker’s Edge, Passarelli shares the knowledge and insights other floor traders keep tight to their chests—the knowledge you need to beat the market on a regular basis. This market maker turned market taker delivers a focused commentary on key concepts for operating in the options exchange like a pro. He offers a candid look at the ups and downs of his trading career and conveys the lessons he learned along the way in an informative and often entertaining way. After spending time on the floor in his shoes, you’ll understand: How professional traders attempt to make money—and why it’s different from the way you make money Why market makers are not the enemy How both market takers and market makers can profit while taking opposite sides of the same trade How to focus on what is important in a trade and avoid the noise Dan Passarelli has already taught thousands of people how to make a living as traders, and now with The Market Taker’s Edge, he can help you do it, too.

Trading is challenging for most people because they simply don't have information, tools or confidence to become successful and trading the hard right edge can be downright scary without it. Trading the Hard Right Edge is important for especially for beginners because it tells it like it is and gives an inside look at trading the financial markets giving you the reality on what the live market is really like, the way they are really run and also tells you who runs them and what you need to do as a self-directed trader to survive in them. Let’s face it, it’s a well-known fact that 97% of self-directed investors and traders fail and lose all of their money, why does this happen? It happens because brand new self-directed traders enter into this business with a bunch of misguided grandiose ideas of making a million dollars from trading and while you can surely make millions of dollars from trading however you would need to be using hundreds of millions of dollars of capital to do so, no joke. As a brand new self-directed trader you have no idea of the brutality and volatility that goes on in the live markets on a daily basis and that there are people in the live markets like the smart money who will walk over dead bodies to get paid so make no mistake as a retail trader and think you can go in the live market and beat them, you can’t. What you can do though is properly prepare yourself to trade with the best traders in the world and get paid right along with them instead of paying them. Once you have completed reading Trading the Hard Right Edge you will have a chance at competing with the best professional traders on the planet. The techniques in Trading the Hard Right Edge will put you on the fast track to being able to make an unlimited income for yourself and becoming consistently profitable enough from trading the financial markets to perhaps even making a living from doing it, isn’t that the reason you’re doing it?
