"You can be a free man. You can live and work anywhere in the world. You can free yourself from the daily routine and to no one accountable.
Such is the life of a successful player.
Many aspire to it, but few reach the goal. New player looking at the screen with stock data and sees in front of him rushing millions of dollars. It is included in the game with the hope of profits and losses shall be .... It enters into it again ... and loses more. Players lose because the game itself is quite heavy, and from ignorance or because of indiscipline. If any of the above fits your situation, you - the one for whom I wrote this book.
As I started to play on the stock exchange
In the summer of 1976 I had to drive from New York to California. In the trunk of my old Dodge, I threw a few books on psychiatry (at the time I was a trainee psychiatrist first year), several novels and a paperback edition of the book Angel "How to buy stocks." I had no idea that razlohmativshayasya book in paperback, which I borrowed from my friend - a lawyer at one time completely change the course of my life. By the way, my friend was the absolute opposite flair for money: all the capital, with whom he had an affair, immediately went to pieces. But that's another story.
I was reading a book Angel camping across America, and finished it on the Pacific coast in La Jølle. I knew nothing about the market, but the idea of \u200b\u200bmaking money "head" captured me.
I grew up in the Soviet Union at a time when he, in the words of the former President of the United States, was an "evil empire." I hated the Soviet system and tried to escape, but emigration was prohibited. I went to college at 16, graduated from the Medical 22, was on probation and enrolled a doctor on board. Now I had the chance to break free! I escaped from a Soviet ship in Abidjan, Ivory Coast.
I fled to the US embassy on muddy dusty streets of African port city, chased by my former teammates. The bureaucrats at the embassy and almost blundered given me for advice. But I resisted desperately, and they put me in a "safe haven", and then put on a plane to New York. In February 1974, I landed at JFK airport, arriving from Africa in summer clothes and 25 dollars in his pocket. I spoke a little in English and did not know a soul in this country.
I had no idea what stocks, bonds, options, futures, and sometimes even lost in the form of American dollars in your wallet. In my former home for a few dollars you can easily buy three years in Siberia.
Reading the book "How to buy the stock" has opened before me a new world. On his return to New York, I bought his first share, it was KinderCare. Ever since I enthusiastically studied the market, I buy and sell stocks, options, and, especially in recent years, futures.
My professional career has developed in parallel. I completed an internship in psychiatry at a major university hospital, he studied at New York's Institute of Psychiatry, and worked as a columnist psychiatric literature in the largest newspaper for psychiatrists in the United States. In those days, I was obsessed with the game and went to his psychiatric office, across the street from Carnegie Hall, only a few times a week in the evening, when bidding stopped. I enjoyed watching and psychiatry, but most of my time I spent on the exchange.
Education exchange game was a long process with its ups and inspirational painful fall. Going forward, or if you like, wandering in circles several times I flew my forehead against the wall and your stock account is reset to zero. Every time I returned to work at the hospital, raising funds, read, think, perform additional tests and start the game again.
My game has steadily improved, but the breakthrough came when I realized that the key to victory is in my head and not inside your computer. It gave me an understanding of psychiatry of the Exchange
