The Investor's Edge

Here's what you'll learn, chapter by
chapter. . . .

Whether you're new to trading, or an experienced or even professional trader, this book will show you methods that should help you achieve your goals.

You can avoid the mistakes that discourage other traders by learning the lessons I wish I had known 20 years ago.

I'll teach you my market timing methods, bread-and-butter strategies, nightly research routine, and much, much more.

If you know something about my background, you know that I am a communicator. I love to teach people how to do what I do for a living in the simplest, clearest terms. I do it every day on my radio show and in my columns.

So I promise that I will take you through these chapters as quickly and painlessly as possible without the outpourings of market mumbo jumbo you find elsewhere.

I have divided this book into three parts.

Part I: What I Wish I Had Known About The Markets 20 Years Ago

In Chapter 1, I'll give you the basic framework you need in order to execute my trading methodology correctly.

In Chapter 2, I will give you the basic technical knowledge you need in order to fully understand the rest of the book. And I will teach you how to identify 'long bases,' the price pattern from which some of the biggest and longest-lasting moves in stocks are launched.

Next, in Chapter 3, I will teach you about breakouts, my bread-and butter strategy. Much of my success in picking the correct stocks for buying and shorting, as well as correctly timing the market, revolves around this one strategy. In this chapter I will share with you every detail of what breakouts look like and how to recognize them.

Part II: Putting The Odds In Your Favor Before You Buy A Stock

When you get to Chapter 4, you and I will get down to business as I show you how I 'time the markets.'; That is, how I determine if the market is going up or down each day? This is very important because the direction of the market determines to a great extent the price movement of individual stocks. You should have a great edge when you only buy or sell stocks in sync with the overall market.

In Chapter 5, I will teach you how to use industry group analysis to boost the odds of winning whenever you buy or short a stock, regardless of whether the market is headed higher or lower. From here, we will put together all the pieces of knowledge that you've learned in Chapters 2 through 5, so that . . .

...in Chapter 6, you will learn how to consistently select stocks that could possibly achieve maximum gains. I will show you how to hunt down the right candidates by combining breakout patterns with market timing, industry group analysis, and the other important analysis tools I use.

Part III: Trading Stocks The Gary Kaltbaum Way

In Chapter 7, I will walk you through real world examples of how to systematically apply my approach to buying individual stocks. You will learn the patterns, price and volume relationships, and market conditions that, working together, tell me that a stock is ready to be bought.

In Chapter 8, I will show you, through more real world examples, how to make money when stocks go down, by selling short. During the worst phase of a bear market, virtually everything plummets. So this is knowledge you should know how to apply.

Finally, in Chapter 9, I will provide you with a solid foundation for taking all of the knowledge in this book and applying it correctly. I will give you an inside look at how I spend my nights and weekends doing the research necessary in order to be ready every morning with my buy and sell candidates. And I will also provide you with my 10 Essential Rules For Stock Market Success.

I honestly believe this is the best book on how to trade the markets that you'll ever find. Order now, and begin applying what you learn right away!
