Description:

If your investment falls by 50% you'll need a 100% rise just to get you back where you started. So when speculating in the stock markets, protecting the money you do have is just as important as making some more. This book is for you if you'd like to have a go at beating the system, but don't want to lose your shirt in the process. Topics covered include: index investing, market timing and trend following, stop loss orders, position sizing, and option spreads. "I found it very easy to understand, not too much jargon..." "I rather enjoyed the experience notes at the end of each chapter..." "..it's nice to be able to learn a few things from others' experiences, good or bad."

I think the book is generally good. It provides an introduction to trading and its strength is in the personal view of trading and the commentary in chapter 3.

A lot of books will give strategies in a theoretical way but not give any examples of how the author used them in practice. So, it deserves a place on the bookshelf of a budding investor.

Having read this book, being very new to trading, I found it clearly written and easy to understand.
As the title suggests, and how it differs from most books in this genre - the idea is not to make huge amounts from the market, but to make tidy profits with relatively low risk trading.
Points covered include the use of stops, trade timing, keeping costs down, straddles and strangles.
Also completing each chapter are 'Experience Notes' giving real examples from the author's own financial experiences.
If you, like me, are new to trading, then you will learn a lot from this book - and hopefully not lose money.
I'm sure more experienced traders can take something from this book too.
'Don't Lose Money' is a must-read if low-risk trading is what you are looking for.
