Everyone has a story about the business deal or stock tip that they missed out on, including author Roger Doss. In his book, Trader’s Intuition, Doss explores the idea that a “gut-feeling” might be right, but with a PhD. in Computer Science, he digs a little deeper.

Chapters and analysis of stocks and cyclical stock patterns include both the fundamental and technical which provide those new to the market with an overall feel for how the stocks work.

If you are an inexperienced trader, there is enough information on stock brokers and online trading programs to get you started, and then the fun starts.

Doss explains the difference between purchase orders, cost per trade, per unit fees and cost-averaging. His plans don’t include day trading, he likes long-term buy and hold strategies with when-to-sell rules, and explains in quick order how to position yourself through stock keeping and how to select specific companies to invest in if your goal is to produce wealth.

You won’t get bogged down with long-winded examples, this is a quick read for those of us with busy lives but a desire to invest. And, finally, Doss describes four strategies that can be implemented by doing your own research, which ultimately is what most online trading involves.
