 Rating:  - About structure of markets, not about behaviourThe books deals with the structure of markets: How is an order transferred? What types of orders exists? What kind of people place orders? This is all useful knowledge. What is not dealt with is the behaviour of the actors in the market: Why is the more orders in the morning?

The language in the book are quite easy to understand even thought some terms are very technical. According to my professor, the contents on the side are useful when combining the reading, which will give you a whole picture of ... Read More Rating: - Required reading for anyone getting into trading and investingI've used this book as a textbook and I have to admit it's invaluable in that it explains in a detailed yet rather straightforward way what happens when you send an order to the marketplace and how it is worked by market participants. In the light of recent developments in academic and professional literature, showing how good execution is an essential part of an outstanding money-management performance, I strongly recommend it to all beginners ready to step in the arena or practicioners who aren't fully ...
