Full-time trader Leon Wilson is a realist – he knows that it is possible to make a living trading the Australian sharemarket – but he knows it is a serious business. It requires, discipline, time and self-education.

Wilson started trading after an industrial accident which meant he had to withdraw from the mainstream workforce. He took steps to learn how to trade and how to turn share trading into his own small business which created a regular income.

The Business of Share Trading is fully comprehensive. It takes new traders step-by-step through how to get started, how to improve their trading techniques and how to eventually give up their day job. Every chapter encourages the reader to think for themselves, to question the way they do things and always to look for a better way.

Do I need a full-service broker? How much money can I hope to make? What computer will be adequate? There is extensive material on charting and indicators to help traders improve their buying and selling techniques and there is essential information on record keeping.
