Michael Parness is regarded as the personification of the American success story. His life journey took him from the bottom to the top of the American trading elite. In his new book, he shows readers two things: how to become a successful trader and how to enjoy life around this vocation. Parness sees himself as a trend trader, following recurring patterns in the stock market to buy and sell. While trends cannot be changed, they serve as guidance for potential profits. "The Path to Becoming a Professional Trader" equips readers with the tools to avoid mistakes in any situation and to operate successfully in the stock market in the long term.
