Most of the info here is very outdated, and not much to begin with. Only good thing is it was cheap.

instill real understanding – the “how to trade” was just a few superficial examples, without even basic pricing formula. The descriptions of each commodity were so basic I was surprised, and much of the detail at least 20 years old and probably out of date. A beginner would be little the wiser fom reading this book and not in much of a position to trade with his own cash. I left the book on the train when I got off…..
