    I had to purchase this book for use in two of my accounting principles courses and it ended up being the most dry and yawn-inducing book I've ever had the DISpleasure of reading. If you're a teacher and looking for a book for your ACCT I or II course, skip over this one.

      5 out of 5 stars Great seller.......2005-10-02

      Book was a little more used than described, but hey for the price it couldn't be beat. To bad my sylabus was wrong and the professor changed the edition. Anyhow, seller was excellent. Fast shipping and I would reccommend.

      5 out of 5 stars My first accounting book.......2005-02-16

      I used this textbook for my first accounting class and it was by far the best. Examples are all spelled out step by step and the numerous exercies and problems contribute to a higher level of understanding. Buy the workbook offered. It will save you a lot of time normally spent setting up the problem. Much better then some of the higher level books I have used.

      5 out of 5 stars Fundamental Accounting Principles.......2000-12-12

      This text was VERY helpful. The illustrations and examples were enough to explain the topic without havung to read the entire book.. Also the problems given at the end of each section were very good. Some were tough; however, the author starts you out with easy problems and works up to the more difficult ones. This text definitely is a good learning aid.

                  5 out of 5 stars THE best book on trading I have ever read........2007-09-09

                  I had to get this book after reading such a mix of reviews. I was really curious how it would turn out since reviewers were either raving about it or trashing it.

                  After reading the 1st half of this book I was shocked to say the least. The first half of this book is worth more than all of the books I have read on trading combined. If someone trashes this book then they are either very new to trading and don't understand the points being made in this book(which I can understand because you have to get some experience under your belt to really appreciate what is being said in this book) or they are looking for a quick strategy they can read in 5 minutes and start making money. For one thing, that's never going to happen anyway.

                  The trading strategies in this book are very basic, so for newbies that part of the book has some good info. I was hoping for a little more advanced analysis of trading techniques, but I really didn't need that anyway. The knowledge and wisdom in the first half of this book is going to take my trading to moon.

                  For the newbies who didn't like this book, get a couple years experience under your belts then go back to this book and re-read the 1st half. I guarantee you, you will want to come back here and write a positive review.


                  3 out of 5 stars Interesting book with lack in details by very self-confident authors.......2007-06-09

                  When I started reading the book by Oliver Velez and Greg Capra: "Tools and Tactics for the Master Day Trader", I thought it was one of the better books on day trading. It starts out with the importance of discipline, and the lessons to be learnt from losses. It also outlines the concept that you don't buy from the market, but there is always another person on the other side of the trade that has exactly the opposite market expectation as you.

                  Then come four chapters with lists of rules: 7 deadly sins, 12 trading laws of success, 15 things every trader should know, and 10 lessons for the master trader. Altogether 44 rules, which don't seem to be in any systematic order. It looks like the authors were brainstorming to come up with as many rules as they could think of, and then divided them up among the four chapters. Some rules contradict one another, some important rules are next to irrelevant ones etc. Also the "Seed of Wisdom" does not help to sum up the rules because it often is not related to the part that it is supposed to summarize.

                  In Chapter 10 and 11 the authors talk about tools and start out by explaining things as basic as a candle stick or support and resistance. Then they dedicate two chapters to Order Systems and Level II data, and it takes until page 293 when they finally talk about trading techniques.

                  After having talked redundantly about general things for three quarters of the book, the authors give their ideas of entry, stop and exit techniques. What I missed most in this part is the lack of exact trading rules. Everything is expressed vaguely (e.g. p.219 "you can also opt to keep the break-even stop. This is a matter of choice." or p.322 "Sell at least half your stock if and when the stock breaks below the 5-minute low. ... These are just guidelines. We don't want to be stupid. ... Many traders will be best served selling the whole lot at this point."). This is exactly the vagueness you can't afford as a day trader. I was also disappointed that there was so little variety in the trade setups (just three entry techniques).

                  So my hope was high that in chapter 17 "How to put it all together" there would finally be concrete entry and exit descriptions. Instead, the authors just describe common chart formations like any other book on technical analysis (and do a worse job, too).

                  Throughout the book I noted an arrogant tone (p. 317: "Let's assume a master trader, let's call him Mr. Velez."). The authors speak about master traders, as if they were some kind of rock stars. No matter, how successful you are, if you quit being humble, the market can easily take everything away from you.

                  I am giving the book three stars because it does cover important topics for day traders like discipline, and learning from your mistakes. If you want to read a more effective book, however, I recommend the one by John F. Carter "Mastering the Trade".

                  Tools and Tactics for the Master DayTrader: Battle-Tested Techniques for Day, Swing, and Position Traders.

                  Velez and Capra give me the impression they have traded before and are not just book writer's. You can learn a few pointer's from this book whether you are a rookie or have been trading a while. It covers Candlesticks,Moving Averages, Fibs, Volume and drawing a few trendlines on the charts intraday and daily charts.
                  It does not go into some of the mathematical stock indicators that some trader's think it might be the "Holy Grail". Sorry, there is no Holy Grail in the stock market you better look elsewhere like yourself. The only "Holy Grail" you will ever find trading stocks is yourself there is no quick fixes to learn to trade stocks it all takes lots of time and practice.
                  Its to look and observe what a chart's footprints tell you with some seeds of wisdom.
                  I see so many negative reviews here about this books. I am starting to wonder whether those reader's have ever traded stocks.
                  I have traded full-time for years and I can tell you they must be all novice trader's hoping that a book might have all the answer's for them and their future. It would help them if they read this book a few times until it sinks in their minds.

                  2 out of 5 stars Nothing new.......2007-04-18

                  nothing new, nothing exciting. Everything can be found in books that are half the price. Save your money.

                  5 out of 5 stars FIVE STARS!!!.......2007-02-27

                  I would definitely give this book five stars. I really learned alot from it. If you gave it a bad review you either need to go back and read the book again or just skimmed through the book.

                  and to the person who sid that he "Heard" that they don't actually trade they are wrong and I thought everyone knew not always to believe what they hear. But hey, some people just believe things more easily than others.
                  and you can't even RATE this book one star because YOU HAVEN'T ACTUALLY READ IT!!!
                  You skimmed through the book and rate it one star??? WOW. that's all I have to say: wow. I'm not even going to say anything else. and people don't listen to all of those bad revievs out there. It really was a great book and is worth the money. (and so is his newer book)

                  and to the person who said: "This book TOTALLY rocked. I read it alot because it was so awesome"

                  YOU TOTTALY ROCK TOO! LOL!

                    Description:
                    This paper shows how the tick size affects equilibrium outcomes in a hybrid stock market such as the NYSE that features both a specialist and a limit order book. Reducing the tick size facilitates the specialist's ability to step ahead of the limit order book, resulting in a reduction in the cumulative depth of the limit order book at prices above the minimum tick. If market demand is price-sensitive, and there are costs of limit order submission, the limit order book can be destroyed by tick sizes that are either too small or too large. We show that trading cost is minimized at larger tick sizes for larger market orders, creating an incentive to submit smaller orders when tick size is reduced. With a smaller tick size, specialist participation increases and specialist profit increases slightly for small market orders, and considerably for large market orders.

                      Description:
                      Specialists compete with limit order traders to provide liquidity at the New York Stock Exchange. Since specialists see all system limit orders, they enjoy a unique advantage in this competition. We examine whether the limit order book is informative about future price changes and whether specialists use this information when trading. We use order quantities as well as option values to capture the information content of the limit order book. Our analyses consider three actions specialists can take when a market order arrives: stop the order, immediately fill the order at the quoted price, or immediately fill the order at an improved price. Using SuperDOT limit orders in the TORQ database, we find that the limit order book is informative about future price movements. We also find that specialists use this information in ways that favor them (and sometimes the floor community) over the limit order traders. The results are more evident for active stocks where the competition between specialists and limit order traders is more intense. Moreover, we find strong evidence that specialists in lower-priced stocks are less likely to initiate such actions because of the large relative tick size.

                          Description:
                          This paper proposes a simple method to decompose the variance of returns into noise and information components, while allowing the two components correlated. To apply the method, this paper examines noise in the Taiwan Stock Exchange, which is a call auction market. It also studies the determinants of noise. It finds that noise has a distinct diurnal effect: the transaction price is less noisy at the open, but is noisier near the close. Trading mechanisms also affect noise: a larger relative tick size and a longer time interval increase noise. We also find that individual investors help to reduce noise.
