I don’t know the word for it but I wanted to start a thread about books which are routed in fact but they have a better flow for reading, kind of like ‘flash boys’ but Michael Lewis which is the most well known I would imagine. 

Which interesting finance and trading related books have you read and would recommend? 

Maybe they don’t need to ALL be specifically like that but any trading books you find interesting. 

I am currently reading Dark Pool by Scott Patterson and it’s very very interesting. I would recommend reading or getting from Amazon or the library if you can. Paperback is a few quid and it’s an interesting read. All about how these matching engines started and pooled liquidity away from the main exchanges. It gives you a good understanding of the “plumbing” behind it all. Also makes more sense when looking at the market. 

I’m the sort of person who would like to read as much around a topic as possible and I think it makes you a better well rounded trader to understand the back end too. 

Has anyone else got some books to recommend please?

I like the concept of that review Casey as it looks like it explains the CORE concept of technical analysis. I’m always a fan of the why, rather than the how, and if I believe the why then I trust myself to figure out the how... 

for example WHY support and resistance works, rather than just how to use it. Why movingaverageswork rather than how etc etc.

    • The U.S. stock markets are currently experiencing a bullish trend, with any recent downward movements considered part of a bullish corrective pattern according to Elliott Wave analysis. Trading activities are being temporarily paused until after the U.S. elections, as this week is expected to be highly active due to 622 earnings reports and the Federal Reserve meeting scheduled for November 7th. Key Elliott Wave Analysis: S&P 500 (SPX): In Wave 4, with three bullish wave counts under consideration. NASDAQ 100 (NDX): Progressing through Wave 4. Apple (AAPL): Entered Wave (2), indicating a corrective phase. Amazon (AMZN): In Wave iv) of 5 of (1), suggesting a minor correction within an overall upward trend. NVIDIA (NVDA): Advancing in Wave 1 of (5), pointing to the beginning of a new upward impulse. Meta Platforms (META): Nearing completion of Wave 4, potentially setting the stage for Wave 5 upward movement. Netflix (NFLX): Completed a Wave 4 Triangle pattern, indicating a possible breakout. Alphabet (GOOGL): Currently in Wave 4, suggesting a corrective phase before the next upward impulse. Microsoft (MSFT): Holding at the 400 support level, in Wave A of (2), which may be the start of a larger corrective pattern. Tesla (TSLA): Moving through Wave 4 of (1), indicating a short-term correction. Bitcoin (BTC): In Wave 4, suggesting a consolidation phase before potential upward movement. Trading Strategy Insight: Investors are advised to monitor these developments closely, especially in light of the upcoming U.S. elections and significant economic events this week. The Elliott Wave patterns indicate that while short-term corrections are occurring, the overall market trend remains bullish. Combining this technical analysis with fundamental factors will be crucial for making informed trading decisions. Analyst Peter Mathers TradingLounge Source: tradinglounge com    
    • Any good DeFi project like ETH, OPT, & ARB are my favorite & wouldn't hesitate to DCA ZRC on Bitget's pre-market campaign tho was able to secure some drops. Hoping to make some profit.
    • The emergence of interactive gaming features within messaging platforms like Telegram presents a dynamic shift in how we engage with digital content. It's intriguing to observe the blending of entertainment, social connectivity, and potential rewards that these mini-games bring to the table I haven't played RoOLZ yet but I do like attack on titans and I've watched all the seasons.  Hope to earn some GODL while I am it!  Thanks for the info
