In Short Term Trading Strategies That Work, Larry Connor discusses 16 simple strategies crucial to the success of any trader or investor. These strategies have been both back-tested up to 2008, but also have been traded by Larry and his team under multiple market conditions. This is the must have book for anyone seeking to improve their trading in any market condition.
Author’s Introduction:
In this book, I’m going to show you what worked then and STILL works today. And even though there is no guarantee of future performance, the hope is that they will continue to work for years to come. Here is how the book is laid out. First we’ll look at certain behavior which is inherent in the marketplace. This behavior is not something that the mainstream press even begins to understand. You will learn that what seems to be logical and obvious is often wrong when it comes to trading.
We’ll then look at pullbacks and why they have worked. We’ll look at daily pullbacks, intra-day pullbacks and how One oscillator, the 2-period RSI, can help you identify when and how to trade these pullbacks. We’ll then move onto the Strategies section. All of the strategies you will learn are backed by more than a decade’s worth of research. I’ll share the rules to each of the strategies and their results with you. You’ll leam stock strategies and s&p timing strategies, again all quantified.
We’ll then look closely at exits. Cetting into a trade is one thing. But the edges can be maximized with the proper exits. We’ll look at a handful of exit strategies and the statistics to verify that they’re valid to use. We’ll end this book with what may be the most important aspect to your trading success. It’s psychology. But instead of us covering the same ground that many other books have covered, we’re going to go further.
We’ll discuss real world situations that you’ll be faced with for the rest of your trading life. And then I’ll share with you an interview I did a few years back with a 10-year Navy Seal veteran. In this interview, you’ll not only learn how to become a better trader; you’ll learn how to become better in everything you do in life.

Excellent quantitative guide to algorithmic trading.
Drake Huang (verified owner) –
Disappointed as it was really all about statistics of trades. Maybe suitable for high frequency or algorithm trading but not any good for me. Not much substance to the book, I could summarise it in a couple of sentences
Brayan Chen (verified owner) –
Excellent strategies

After having taken a college level investment classs and being in the NAIC for about a decade, I concur with most of the results of the research here. On that note, if you are not new to investing or are comfortable with charting, you may not want to shell out big bucks for the paper version.

Larry has a lot of knowledge and he enjoys teaching the book has a lot of different strategies that make very common sense
Hattie Lynn (verified owner) –
The material is very straight forward and requires full attention as there are many details condensed in every paragraph. Editing is very good. Loved it and would recommend anyone to get it NOW !

Probably more than 10 years since this book was written. But many of its fundamental holds true . The book is so clear and precise. So direct to the point when u start reading u won’t stop

Stats for all strategies could be just a result of curve fitting, no evidences is provided to show otherwise. Also none of the strategies include measurements of risk, drawdowns, equity curves, etc.

Understanding how to use all the tools in the toolbox allowed me to correct failed strategies. Larry Connors helped me avoid failed trades!
Davion Chan (verified owner) –
Short: just to the point, with a strong bias on the long side of the ES, but Providing a lot of value to someone looking for systematic ideas with positive expectancy …
Otis Boone (verified owner) –
Pretty good book, but just know his strategy is all about mean reversion. If you are a breakout trader look elsewhere, other than that good read on some well backed mean reversion strategies.
Alejandra Lim (verified owner) –
Just have to apply the strategies now. Some of the strategies seem to not come up too often but with an 80 percent accuracy then I will wait for them. Thank you for the book and your research.

All good.

The Good: Its a good book to understand Mean reversion as a concept.
The Bad: The strategies provided in the book do not have the edge anymore. Plus the data is selected from 1997-2007, just before the GFC. In the final P&L when we apply the strategy during GFC and Coronavirus crisis, it negates all the returns which it made. Plus the book only talks about the winning percentage and do not show any P&L. Just one big loss from GFC and Covid crisis will negate most of the profits made in before the time period.
The Ugly: Not robust at all but carefully cherry picked the favorable time-period from the history which supports author’s concept.

The content is precise and concrete.
It must be an eye opener to developing a better system trading.
