Great Teacher
One of the most respected traders out there with his simple to follow style. He also has a great book that helps you understand the method behind the madness. I recommend everyone who trades to take Read more...

This book covers the basics of investing, but by no means does it give enough in-depth information for any level of decision making. The whole strategy is simplified to the point of being too vague to offer any information to all but the most novice readers. Despite reading this book, I invested my Read more...

Overall pleased
"It delivered on a number of fronts. While not being in-depth on any one subject, it offered a good foundation to base further learning. Basic Quantitative stock screening, and where the investor/trader can get a robust screener at no charge. Financial definitions and application of those defini Read more...

Balances the playing field.
"As a financial planner myself, I was a bit skeptical about Mr. Horowitz's methodologies, but I must say that given the current market conditions and the totally changed investing landscape, the buy and hold approach of yesterday no longer applies.

Got the audiobook and love listening to it. It's great for beginners who are just starting to invest. Bought a few copies for friends. Horowitz presents a broad view of his quanta, funda, techna style of investing. Simple and easy to understand.
I recommend this book, esp. for beginners, because it gives a good explanation of the many investment strategies out there and follows up by guiding how to succeed in executing them (showing you the ins and outs) Andrew explains things really well and in a simple style although the advice is not si Read more...

This guy is great!!
I started out listening to Andrews podcasts about 2 months prior to the lows of our "great recession" and his explanations and outlooks allowed me to get back into the market at just the right time to really take advantage of the rally and by the end of 2009 I had actually doubled the value of my ho Read more...
