Explores two neglected mathematical tools essential for competing successfully in today's frenzied commodities markets: quantity, which shows the proper amounts a trader should trade for a given market and system, and intercorrelation of returns (diversification), which shows not only which markets and systems to trade, but how to diversify with respect to trading the right quantities for each market. By using these lesser known tools in conjunction with the more popular trade/system selection tools, readers will see mathematically how success in the markets can be achieved, and how ``success'' without using all three is most likely incidental. In addition, non-stationary distribution of profits and losses and drawdowns are incorporated into the discussions to expose traders to the highs and lows of commodities markets and how best to leverage their assets.

Peter Alexander provides valuable insight, information, advice and guidance to the new or aspiring trader in either stocks or commodities. The title strikes me as misleading. Although substantial coverage is devoted to issues relevant to trading by computer, the book also covers many other topics which the new trader will find helpful as well. A more apt title might have been The Complete Guide to Issues of Concern to the New Trader. In the area of computer matters, the author gives advice on the choice of computer hardware and operating systems. He describes several popular charting software programs, with guidance provided on the features he would be certain were included in the package one chooses. He discusses various data vendors and data formats, and the importance of clean data. Various markets in which the new trader may choose to participate are discussed. Their risk and reward characteristics and other considerations relevant to deciding which market is best suited to the individual are covered thorouthly. The different types of orders that may be used in various markets and exchanges are explained and copious examples provided. Important issues covered include minimum price fluctuations, commission costs, liquidity, volatility, markets (and exchanges) to avoid, and the relative pros and cons of daytrading versus position trading. The author provides a basic education on the various types of price charting, such as bar charts, candlesticks, and point and figure charts. In the area of computerized technical indicators, he provides a concise, easy to understand explanation of most major indicators, covering their calculation, interpretation, and their use in trading decisions. The various chart formations and patterns are discussed briefly, such as head and shoulders, triangles, flags and the like. One of the chief contributions of the book is its lucid and thorough explanation of the development, backtesting and implementation of trading systems. Several detailed case studies illustrate the principles the beginner needs to know to pursue creating his own system. Sound investment principles are emphasized through the book, such as the importance of sound money management principles and the role of discipline. Comprehensive glossaries of technical analysis terms, financial terms, and other useful information are provided. The author's style of writing is free flowing, interesting, and easy to understand. His colorful phrases and metaphors are, in places, reminiscent of Elder's Trading for a Living. This is a great book for new traders searching for guidance and useful information in the subject areas covered.

The first comprehensive guide on maximum adverse excursion — a powerful new tool for dramatically lessening trading risks "Trading successfully, like everything else, is built upon solid preparation. It is the well-prepared individual who will be able to cope in today's competitive market. John Sweeney's Maximum Adverse Excursion will provide you with the steps to perform the analytical review of your trading system that you should undertake before you ever risk your capital." — Thomas Hartle, Editor Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities magazine "Maximum Adverse Excursion deals with a much overlooked subject: how to minimize losses. If every trader took John Sweeney's advice and learned how to minimize losses before trying to make profits, they would be financially ahead." — Martin J. Pring, President The International Institute for Economic Research "John Sweeney has done it again. As with Campaign Trading, he takes a complex set of ideas and explains them in a simple, easy-to-understand manner, in a form that traders can use to help them make informed and profitable buy-sell decisions." — Clifford Sherry, PhD, author The Mathematics of Technical Analysis Most successful traders have a "sixth sense" that alerts them to loss points and amounts. But what happens when intuition fails? When the potential loss incurred on a trade is significant, you need more than guesswork. But is it possible to estimate the loss point accurately—quantitatively? With maximum adverse excursion (MAE), the answer is a resounding "YES". This innovative method of risk management enables traders to steer clear of potentially devastating results by pinpointing loss points before implementing trading decisions. Now, in the first book to provide an in-depth examination of this vital trading tool, John Sweeney, MAE developer and Technical Editor of the highly regarded Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities magazine, takes you step by step through its various intricacies. In this comprehensive and accessible reference, Sweeney shows how the key to successful MAE implementation lies in determining whether there is any consistency in market behavior. By measuring and charting price excursion from a set point of entry, you can establish—quickly and easily—whether prices show consistent behavior over a finite time frame. If, in fact, some regularity, some pattern in price changes is revealed, you can then exploit it while in the trade. The bottom line is a more reliable system for discerning whether your trade is going in your direction or not, and—in either case—what likely events are next. By replacing guesswork with statistical descriptions, you can objectively determine when to cut off a loser, or put in a protective stop . . . or take profits. Maximum Adverse Excursion can give you "the elusive edge that traders seek . . . a line all your own, from which profits can flow with minimized, quantifiable risk." This comprehensive, accessible reference gives you the tools you need to employ MAE successfully, including detailed information on: Defining and calculating adverse, minimum, and maximum favorable excursion (MinFE and MaxFE) Displaying MAE—aggregation, frequency diagrams, stop size Determining specific capital requirements—capital conservation, defining drawdowns Profit definition by stop level—profit tradeoffs, profit curves, interpretation Impact of volatility changes—tweaks, changing stops by range or volatility Trading management—portfolio impacts, day-to-day management, elaborations Complete with sample calculations, practical examples, and EXCEL programs for creating your own charts, this is the definitive guide to using MAE effectively—and profitably.
