Without doubt... September 1, 2008
.... the best book currently around for understanding the stock market. Robbie Burns is very good at explaining all the market jargon in a friendly and humourous tone, and there's masses of advice - particularly what not to do! The webiste is well worth a look too.

good book easy to read, emphasises doing own research. Gives some usefull advice, such as avoiding shares with debt more than 3 times of Annual profit ( I would say rather Cash Flow)
Only regret is not buying it soon enough May 12, 2008

I wish I bought it a year ago when I started trading... If I read this earlier, I could have avoided mistakes I made NT pointed out in the book.
The author's writing style is light and friendly so it's not a boring book to read. Clearly pointed out mistakes all newbie investors would make along with good habit of trading. It's not the investing bible nor get rich quick book but it definitely is investing 101 for newbies and intermediate investors.
Great. March 5, 2008

Although I have yet to find the time, spare cash or the confidence to start trading I do think that this book will prove invaluable to me when I finally do. The advice is not going to guarantee you a fortune over night or even guarantee you success. However it will make the whole world of stocks and shares much less of a mystery whilst providing you with some very useful hints tips and information. Looking over some of my friend's dealings and losses I now understand approximately where they may have gone wrong. Had they read this book first they may have saved themselves some money. Even such seemingly simple advice about setting loss stops and never buying into the `falling knife' stocks is very helpful. The author includes many examples of winning and losing scenarios as well as pointers on where deals often go wrong.
As other reviewers have said the book is very easy to read in a sitting or two, and also amusing in places.
I will be passing this on to my unsuccessful share dealing friends, and recommend it to anyone still in their early days of dealing.
Bloody Awesome!!! February 4, 2008

I have just finished this book and by 'just', i mean 2 minutes ago. Secondly, i have never written a review as normally can't be arsed for that kind of thing, however, i am moved by this book!
As an absolte newbie to this world, i found it extremely informative, written in plain English rather than 'over using' ridiculous amounts of complicated financial terminology.
Following this read, two things are going to happen;
1) I am going to start trading in shares
2) I am going to one of Robbies (The Naked Trader Himself) seminars for a full days 'education'.
Most importantly though, the book is excellently executed in that it has the same magnetic hold as when reading a novel and this just makes the inormation sink in that much easier!
WELL DONE MR NT!
In summary..........
If you want to get in to shares - this is an absolute must!!!!!!!!!!!
