About this book

Many investors obtain financial information from television and newspapers, but this does not enable them to understand the secrets of achieving financial success. This book is an insider's view covering subjects such as asset allocation, diversification, market neutral trading and risk management. It reveals why some financial products and strategies are better than others and gives a rich and deep understanding of great investing.

Reviews

'Seasoned traders and new investors alike will learn much from Alpesh Patel's 'no nonsense' guide to the industry.' - Philip Hampsheir, Former Bloomberg Presenter

'An intriguing book, by one of the savviest traders around. It explores the areas like asset allocation and diversification that are often neglected and little understood by the average private investor. Read this book, and you are guaranteed to be a better investor.' - Peter Temple, Financial Times columnist and author

'Once again Alpesh debunks perceived institutional wisdom and offers valuable and entertaining insight to the thinking investor. Whether you are new to investing or have been doing it for years, you will feel empowered by this thoroughly readable book.' - Lindsay J. McNeile, Chairman, Worldspreads.com

'As a trader and a financial journalist himself, Alpesh Patel is uniquely qualified to give a behind-the-scene view of financial markets, and their interaction with the media. This book gives a very intelligent view of the art of investing, and debunks a lot of myths. I recommend it to anyone who is serious about investing.' - Bernard Oppetit, Founder, Centaurus Capital (a $2billion hedge fund)
