The Secrets of Trading The First Pullback: A Price Action Guide For Understanding Market Pullback That Works

Great little book overall. It's a relatively short book to ready but make no mistake, there is some meat in it. Got the paper copy btw. The author is to the point and does not spend endless pages talking about how much of a trading stud he is or dropping some Wall Street anecdotes. Learning to trade pullbacks properly is a must for anyone aspiring to get the upper hand on Wall Street. I am confident this book will help you firm up your game. It's not the last word on pullbacks trading but all the basics are very well covered and in my opinion the trading set-ups discussed are sound. Great job. I will more than likely give a shot at another of the authors book.

Solid information. I’ve been studying charts for almost a year and learned a lot. Just great to add new thoughts and knowledge. Helped me refine my trading plan on the first pullback. The author is very authentic. The book is well written and charts come up well. My thanks to the author.

As the title implies, this book discusses in great detail different types of pullbacks and how to identify them on the charts. There are charts that clearly show the examples of what he is discussing. Even on a kindle, the charts were clear and easy to read. He really did a good job explaining how the ideas he was discussing played out on the charts (pointing out entry and exit points). I found the information to be helpful. Unlike many trading books, this book doesn't have any filler chapters where the author goes on and about how his method is the best and the rest are stupid and blah blah blah. He got right into the discussion of pullbacks. Another reviewer mentioned how the author tried to sell a trading course on his website but that is misleading. The only discussion of his website was in the last chapter of the book, after all of the author's points had been made. His website was not mentioned in the discussion of pullbacks at all.

This is the only book on pullbacks you’ll ever need. Author gets right to the point without lots of fluff. Packed with very valuable information. The author has thoroughly researched pullbacks.

This is an important book on a very important subject in technical short term trading. The book does emphasize the importance of pullback and I think its a good book. But, the book may give you the impression you can stop your journey of education in short term trading. This is not true. The pullback is not the ultimate tool. My 2 cents.. master the range! The bread and butter of short term trading is the RANGE! The trend is a bounce. Anyone can trade the trade.. but 85% of the time the market is in range. And a retail trader needs to bring money every day! And if you will accept the common thinking the range market is a choppy market you will give up mastering the main state of the markets. If you master the range.. you by definition ride the trend in his initial state.

Finally a trading book that is an excellent first step in the right direction. If you're tired of searching for a system to use in your trading then grab a hold of Secrets of Trading the First Pullback as a first step to solving your problem. Pullbacks occur in the market on a daily basis and Alwin does an exceptional job of taking you step by step through the complete process. While the book is a fantastic first step, no trading book will or has EVER taught you a complete method. Try one on Flying....Golf.....Heart Surgery. You need more than just reading. Even the best in sports have coaches and mentors. Let Alwin Ng take care of you. Sure he directs you to the course material on his site. The course is wildly inexpensive for what you get and he does a first class job of meticulously filling in the blanks that couldn't possibly be covered in the book. Having been a pullback trader for some time now it certainly gave me some immediate and actionable changes I could make to improve my win ratio. Believe me, you'll read a lot of advice from many in other books but what you get in Secrets of Trading the First Pullback is great first step, even if you never take the course, that will take care of you for the rest of your trading life.

I try to read at least 1-2 trading books a week and on most of them I pull something out of them that I can fit into my style of trading. I have read some books that you knew the author was very knowledgeable about the subject but just didn't know how to get it across to you in writing. This book is well put together and informative and presents trading pullbacks in a very readable format.

If you’re looking for that missing ingredient in your trading, this book is for you. The only reason I didn’t give it five stars was because there were a few grammatical errors. Aside from that, if you want to learn how to get in “rider” trades and understand how effective pullbacks can be, you need to read this book. It’s an easy, short, worthwhile addition to your trading education.

Lots of valuable tips presented in a very logical and organized way. Really enjoyed it. It helps you assess something that we often take for granted ie the type of pullback it is, sharp, shallow, deep etc and what that actually means. Great little book

Great & highly recommended book, written by someone who 'been there, done it & knows what he is talking about.

Small book, aboit 100 pages and this was what i needed, because lomg books like 500 and 700 pages books can be challenging. Although many reviews say that you can find the same content free on internet, you cannot find it well organized, well explained and from a trusted source. I finished the book through 2 times reading, and i fully understood a pullback, and it helped me correct many habits and thoughts. This a very good book, fast reading, and it can be used as tutorial each time you need it. Read on Kindle

This is the only book in any market you can apply the concept of price action.brifly explained all the market scenario and also trading psychology. I never read ever before such a book. Thank You for Alwin Nig who has been written such a fabulous Book.

I've been trading for almost three years and can honestly say I've read every book and done multiple courses on the financial markets. There is a minefield of information on this subject that can send you running around in circles for months if not years trying different strategies and systems. I'm now at the point where I don't buy many new books on trading and am simply trying to apply and hone my skills based on years of trial and error. The author of this book describes traders like me as being at the "Conscious Competence" stage of my trading apprenticeship. In his words "Conscious Competence - This is where the real trading development begins because at this stage, you have learnt enough. By enough I mean there is sufficient knowledge inside you to keep yourself going and you consciously choose to stop learning until necessary". That said when I stumbled across this book on Amazon the previous reader reviews sparked my interest. Also the title of this book aligned itself with the style of trading I have decided to focus on. This review is already starting to ramble and I dont want to simply repeat what has already been said by previous reviews so in conclusion this book has been add to my top five best books I have read on the subject. The author pulls no punches and tells it how it is. Trading is NOT EASY or a way to get rick quick. It's a career and needs to be respected as such. You wouldn't expect to become a dentist of doctor overnight and you should not expect to become a successful trader overnight. On the practical side this book does a great job explaining how the real markets operate in plain English.
