Forex Revolution Summary

Forex Revolution: An Insider's Guide to the Real World of Foreign Exchange Trading by Peter Rosenstreich

For many investors, an intense, 24-hour-a-day, $1.5 trillion roller-coaster of a market spells danger; for readers of Forex Revolution, the word is opportunity.

-Michael J. Panzner, vice president, Rabo Securities USA, Inc., and author of The New Laws of the Stock Market Jungle

The author possesses an uncommon ability to describe a difficult and rapidly changing marketplace as if seen through a beginner's eyes. A most useful book for anyone that might not have been paying attention these past five years as the market reinvented itself.
