Way of the turtle is such an excellent book with many lessons to be learn't , "like buy into strength and not weakness". Mastering the trade, also an excellent book that teaches you abt setup, how to use pivots for day trading, etc,etc These 2 books , you will have to re-read once you progress as a trader. Sometimes these principle does get lost with all the noise around. (OMO)
