"Complete Guide to Building a Successful Trading Business"
This book is a great fit for anyone who's serious enough about trading to sit down and write a business plan. I'd also add it's a good fit for anyone who's serious about being a successful trader, business plan or not.

"Definitely For Traders Intent on Being Successful" FIVE STARS. I like this book mainly for its concepts and how they apply to developing a robust trading strategy. Mr. King’s coverage of the Trading System Lifecycle has been of significant help in clarifying my thoughts and writing a business plan. I have found how-to ideas about the trading process that I have not seen elsewhere in the large number of trading books I’ve read. And it has the occasional new and unusual view of some aspect of trading which has suggested ideas for investigation. I agree that this one is for serious traders. There’s very little fluff and a lot of practical knowledge.
