Product Description
In recent years many smart investors have exited the stock market and other investment areas because they have essentially lost control of their investments. They have relied on the advice and skill of their brokers, bankers, and financial advisors. Many investment and retirement accounts have dwindled. Fortunately, there is a wonderful but little-understood alternative: currency trading and investing. As with many other business segments, the Internet and technology have opened up this attractive marketplace to a new breed of individual investors and speculators working part-time. You and I can now stand on an even playing field with the largest banks and trading institutions from the comfort of home. Currency trading is the practice of exchanging one country's currency for another country's currency. The foreign exchange (Currency or Forex or FX) market is the largest trading market in the world exceeding $1.9 trillion every single day! Essentially there are four variables involved: currencies, exchange rate, time, and interest rate. The relationships of these variables create opportunities for small investors to obtain investment returns that are generally unheard of in the traditional investment world. You owe it to yourself and your family to begin to learn about currency trading. You can get started with just $100 or less, and the investment can easily be managed in a part-time capacity, usually requiring a few hours on the Internet a week from your home or your office. Currency investments can provide you with very high and secure rate of return, in some cases as high as 12%, 18%, 24%, or even 1,000% or more per year. If performed correctly, currency trading will far outpace all other investments. The key is to know how to perform this process correctly. This all sounds great, but what is the catch? There really is none, except you must know what you are doing! This groundbreaking and exhaustively researched new book will provide everything you need to know to get you started generating high-investment returns with low risk from start to finish, and you can start with less than $100. You will learn what currency trading is; how to invest in foreign currency; trading strategies and tactics; technological considerations; how to set up your account online; purchase currency online; day trader insights; current trends; Pivot Programs; price projectors; futures predicting; trading software; insider secrets to help you double or even triple your investment all while avoiding traps and pitfalls. If you are interested in learning hundreds of hints, tricks, and secrets on how to earn enormous profits in currency trading while controlling your investments, then this book is for you.

 Takes a deep subject and makes it easy to digest.... October 25, 2007

Both FOREX and investing are very deep subjects. I anticipated that upon reviewing this book, I would be greeted by a stuffy, overblown financial dictionary full of terminology that I couldn't understand.
I was wrong.
This book takes a very deep and complex subject and breaks it down in to easy to digest chunks that makes FOREX and investing very easy to understand. An easy read, I could not put it down.
So why not 5 out of 5 stars? Why the 1/2 star deduction?
Just a little too much filler. For example, there are pages that are taken up by graphs instead of content. Because the author, Jamaine Burrell, wrote this book so well...I would have liked to have seen more content, and less graphic presentation.
Enjoy this book. I did.

How to Trade Currency Explained for Everyone August 15, 2007
Xiao Ka (Moline, IL United States)
17 out of 23 found this review helpful
With a lot of Americans being more and more in debt, people are always looking for a way to make money easily and risk free. The Complete Guide to Currency Trading and Investing was written to help people understand what exactly currency trading is, how to reduce the risks that are involved with any type of investment, and what exactly you need to know before you start trading money. No type of investments is risk-free, but if you want to avoid some of these risks, this is the book to read, because it has everything you need to get started.
Burrell introduces readers to currency trading. First, she gives important information about the major central banks around the world, and how some of the fluctuations in prices of certain goods can affect the price of those currencies. Burrell also manages to tell about the ins and outs of FOREX, which is crucial for trading currencies. I found that the most important parts of this book were learning how to make a plan, how to do research on what currencies to buy and sell, and what information you need to reduce your risks. By the time I finished the end of this book, I was thinking like someone who had experience in trading money, able to understand the lingo that is used in the industry, knew how to open an account to trade money and had a bit of confidence in the subject.
One of the downsides of this book is that there isn't a glossary, so if you need to refresh your memory on the meaning of one of these many terms, you have to rely on the index to go back and read up on it. Overall, I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to diversify their portfolio, and has the time to actually do the research that's involved in doing their own currency trades. The book is well written, easy to read, and full of information that is practical and difficult to find in any other single source. So, do I think that I will start investing in and trading currencies? Probably not, but I can see that this book can help others who are interested in learning more about the subject.
an excellent resource for newcomers and experienced traders alike October 24, 2007

Well-written and easy to understand, this book offers an excellent introduction to anyone looking to enter the complicated world of currency trading. To someone like me who had only a passing knowledge of the world of international finance, this book provides a strong base of knowledge and levels the playing field for a newcomer with a passion to learn. The chapter devoted to the Forex Market was especially useful to me and is a must read for anyone even just interested in learning more about currency trading and investing.
Like so many specialized fields, currency trading has its own language, language that can be daunting to a newcomer to the field. Burrell does a stellar job of weaving explanations of important terms seamlessly throughout the text. After reading this book, I feel much more confident getting involved in discussion about currency trading and in following the market news. I also feel Burrell made clear the possible perils of currency trading and investing, never seeking to glamorize this volatile market.
Burrell's obvious knowledge on the subject combined with strong writing skills made this book enjoyable to read and easy to understand. Whether you're a former English major who never took a class on finance, or a former Finance major just trying to reconnect with the industry, this book is a must-have for the reference shelf of anyone interested in currency trading and investing.
Complete Guide to Currency Trading December 20, 2007

The author has managed to take a very complex subject and break it down into easy to read chapters. The book is packed with technical material, but it all has been laid out in a way that a novice can follow. The only thing hard about the book is keeping all the Country abbreviations straight.
The book does and excellent job of explaining how the currency markets work. It has fascinating background on how the markets where formed and when.
This book is not a casual read it is for someone who wants to come away with a clear picture of how currency trading works. A nice amount of case studies are included and there is a very nice appendix.
A Great Introduction to the FOREX Market March 14, 2008

6 out of 9 found this review helpful
I have heard about currency trading and investing but was not well-versed in this market. Who knew that the Euro may someday replace the United States dollar as the "currency kept in reserve by the world"? I certainly did not. Of course, you see, most of what Jamaine Burrell talks about in his book, "The Complete Guide to Currency Trading and Investing," is stuff many of us do not know about until after years of experience in the market of Foreign Exchange (or Forex). This book is especially good for novice investors, who need to have complicated investing concepts explained. The great thing about Burrell's tone is that he is not condescending, or "dumbs down" the material. He clearly covers most every complexity about Forex and does so with a professionally instructive voice.
I was particularly interested in this book, especially as our nation is facing a weakening dollar, because I hear so much nowadays about the foreign markets and how many are investing in and trading currency. Apparently, the Forex market really is an accessible investment that can pay the investor quite well if he or she knows how to get involved in the Forex market and understands how it works.
That is why I felt Burrell's book was so helpful for me. It explains how the Forex market works, why the United States is such an important player in the world market, how to get involved, and does a great job illustrating the many indexes, factors, and issues that contribute to currency-value fluctuation and the overall global economy.
For anybody who fears getting lost in a book about a complex investment market like Forex never fear. Though Burrell quickly dives into terminology, acronyms, and details at length some topics, he clearly was aiming the book toward novice folks like myself and does a good job at clarifying complicated matters and never introduces an acronym (like GDP) without telling the reader what the full term is (Gross Domestic Product) and how it relates to the topic at hand ("The GDP is the yearly total value of all goods and services produced," as he explains on page 157). That is yet another great thing about this book---Burrell's tone is not condescending, nor does he "dumb down" the material. He clearly covers most every complexity about Forex and does so with a professionally instructive voice. If you are looking for a book that introduces and explains some of the basics (and details) about foreign currency trading, I feel "The Complete Guide to Currency Trading and Investing" makes for an ideal guide indeed.
