In Stop and Make Money How To Profit in the Stock Market Using Volume and Stop Orders, he reveals how to profit from short-term price movements in the stock market―whether you’re buying or selling short―by accurately interpreting price/volume information and effectively employing stop orders to enter and exit positions. With this book as your guide, you’ll quickly discover how to anticipate short-term stock market moves and improve your overall trading activities.
Author’s Introduction:
In the pages that follow we are going to look at a cohesive gathering of tools that can make you money. It is a technical approach to the market, which has only one objective: buying cheaper than you sell. One of the primary tools will be the stop order, hence the title of this book. But that is just a part of the entire technique of trading, which is based on a proper recognition of the importance volume plays in the marketplace. It is a story about trading, not long-term investing.
Never before in history have conditions been more conducive to stock market trading! All the various impediments that traders faced in the past have been either eliminated or reduced to extremely low levels. This has been due to two factors. The first is the development of a free and competitive market, with ever-lower commission rates.
The second factor is the immense leaps in technology that have so radically changed the marketplace. These two factors, in combination, have leveled the playing field to the extent that the trader in rural New Mexico has every advantage that the trader on Wall Street has.

This is a well written and useful book for anyone who trades and invests with charting tools to obtain useful indicators on when to enter and when to potentially exit any given position

Three needed improvements:
1) ability to zoom-in by the use of fingers (Ex. a feature in iBook)
2) the letters and numbers in the figures and graphs in this book should be sharp and clear when enlarged, not blurry and illegible
3) pages that have the blue book-mark should be listed in the table of contents.

Unless you are going to learn the author’s proprietary Equivolume Charting System and to subsribe particular websites (MetaStock recommended in this book with a one month free trial), please give this a pass. For those who want to learn TA, there are plenty of better alternatives, say, “High Probability Trading by Marcel Link”.

Being relatively new to trading, I wondered if the information in the book would be over my head. Instead I found it very interesting, easy to understand and even entertaining. It’s full of charts and examples and has a disk for a free month’s subscription to MetaStock so the reader can experience the charting first-hand.
Since reading Richard Arms’ book, I’ve been able to avoid losses and take more profits by carefully evaluating the direction of the market and using stop orders to both enter and exit trades. I never considered entering a trade with a Stop Limit order before. The concept is brilliant and it works like a charm.
Don’t be put off by the price of this book. It is literally “worth its weight in gold.” It’s one you’ll keep on your desk and refer to often.

I was excited about this book . I don’t paper trade so I gave the method outlined in this book a go and I hit my stop in the first few hours of markets open for a loss today( ouch ) . It was painful because the book is so well written and I am sure the method works , possibly just not for myself . I followed all the rules outlined in the book and I am thankful for my stop , but It was painful to loose so fast . This is a very solid book and Mr. Arms is a very knowledgeable writer/ trader but this book could liquidate your money fast . Please be-careful . I gave this book 3 stars because I learned much from this book despite my market loss . I am sure the Mr. Arms has the best intentions and this system will work for some people .

This could be a good “beginner’s” guide to trading but if you rely on this for trading – I guarantee that eventually you WILL lose. There is no such thing as a “good” – let alone “excellent” or “realistic” guides to trading. Remember, you are trading against multi-million dollar computers and continually back tested algorithms used by multi-billion (even trillion) dollar corporations that will eat your tiny investment for a snack. This is like a 12 year old boxing against a world champion. You don’t have a chance – unless you are very, very, very lucky. How’s YOUR luck been?
