1 out of 5 stars No Secret Strategies Here...   February 20, 2009
Chung Dynasty
cannot believe that they have jacked up the price so much since I bought it. When I bought it I was clueless and very inexperienced so I tried to read as many trading books as possible.

It is definitely important that you try many things and read many books. It will help you in the long run. But at the same time you can definitely avoid many books that are grossly overpriced and do not offer any advice. This is one of them.

Make sure to check out www.elitetrader.com for additional resources.

5 out of 5 stars Vomund Offers Practical, Tested ETF Investment Strategies   November 8, 2008

I read this book with great interest. It offers what other publications covering ETF Style and Sector investing have missed -a practical, direct approach to successfully IMPLEMENTING tested investment strategies.

I especially appreciate the timely supporting data the author, David Vomund, offers on his website www.etftradingstrategies.com, at the two tabs labeled Analysis and Strategies. That weekly-updated information, along with the book, help me understand and accurately execute the recommended trading strategies. It's really not any more complicated than that. I'm committed to adopting two of the strategies and excited to begin trading soon.

I also want to offer my thanks to the 16 reviewers before me who have shared thoughtful comments about this book and the author. Were it not for you, I may never have noticed or purchased David's book.

On the background of some simple strategies, the book appears to concentrate on promoting its website resources. There is no "Aha" strategy here.


3 out of 5 stars Rotation strategies   March 26, 2008

The book's title is a little misleading. There's only one strategy that's "revealed" here, that of style rotation -- here style can mean "market cap groups" or "sectors," etc. The book is really slim, totaling about 90 pages, of which only 30 are truly useful. The other 60 pages are just fluff. The ETF introduction chapter is ridiculously light on details; it contains gems such as "you can't tell liquidity from trading volumes" -- okay, what should we be looking for, then? There's a chapter with an interivew with Linda Raschke and another on charting written by Steve Palmquist; neither chapter contributes anything at all to the rotation strategies discussed in part 3 of the book. The book concludes with a brief discussion of trading plan by some "doctor."

So, you'll buy the book only for the 30 or so pages on rotation strategies. Actually, it's one strategy with a few variations. The author shows you backtesting results using index data and then ETF data (the latter covers a much shorter period, usually only from 2002 on). I do like the fact that in at least one of the tests he didn't forget to include transaction cost. The strategies are simple and may work if followed religiously. The author discusses a few ways of building on top of the basic principles. For me, these 30 pages are worth the (Amazon) price of the book, although similar information can be found, for free, on the web.
