PRAISE FOR MARKETS AND MOMENTUM "In recent years, Jim Dalton has been one of the premier educators in the trading world. His grounding in Market Profile has helped traders think about opportunities multidimensionally, integrating price, time, and volume. In Markets and Momentum, Jim teams up with Rob Dalton to integrate the trading of market psychology with the psychology of trading. Developing and experienced traders alike will find practical wisdom and actionable information in this readable and insightful guide." -BRETT STEENBARGER, PHD, Professor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, SUNY Upstate Medical University; Trading Psychologist and Author "Jim Dalton has imparted a great deal of useful information in this book. The most important aspect concerns delving into your own psychological approach to why you're winning or losing. This is an extremely insightful and important concept. Keeping a journal, letting your profits run, honestly assessing your performance are all things that a successful trader needs to do. Even experienced traders should be able to learn something from this book." -LAWRENCE G. McMILLAN, Author, Options as a Strategic Investment "Trading is a pursuit that is simple but far from easy. The mechanics are not difficult to learn, but success in the markets is often elusive until one can control their emotions, overcome cognitive dissonance, and act decisively on nuances that most others will miss. As Dalton states in his new book, it is a constant evolution towards a point 'where the subtleties of intuition dance harmoniously with the complexities of experience.' Being in the trader education space for almost 20 years now, I have rare insight into what newer traders struggle with most. Many are simply misunderstanding the importance of context, the difference between price and value, and how to make decisions according to market generated information (MGI) as opposed to news, bias, or opinion. These are the principles at the core of Markets and Momentum and the starting point for true market understanding that can lead to the consistency you seek." -PETER REZNICEK, shadowtrader.net "I wanted to say thank you-I wouldn't be where I am today without your knowledge, experience, and well-crafted e-courses. Your education has not only helped change my life, but also impacted my family's future. Instead of being buried in debt, we've had the freedom to live more fully and even give back. You've made a difference not only in my life but in the lives of many others as well." -PAUL THOMAS, Independent Trader
