Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Markets in Profile explores the confluence of three disparate philosophical frameworks: the Market Profile, behavioral finance, and neuroeconomics in order to present a unified theory of how markets work. The Market Profile is an ever-evolving, multidimensional graphic that gives visual form to the market's continuing auction process, revealing the myriad underlying dynamics that influence market activity. Behavioral finance posits that investors are driven more by emotional factors and the subjective interpretation of minutia than by 'rationality' when making investment decisions. And neuroeconomics is the study of how investor psychology permeates and affects the financial markets. Mr. Dalton explicates the ways in which irrational human behavior influences the market's natural auction process, creating frequently predictable market structure, which results in opportunities for investors to ameliorate risk. The book will improve investors ability to interpret change in markets, enabling better, more confident investment decisions.

This is a very tedious book. Key problem is that I don't see much new information compared to the authors' decade old "Mind over Markets". I have given that book four stars. I would strongly advice you to buy that earlier book and give this current book a pass. The style of the current book is also very meandering compared to the earlier book. And nowhere does the authors explain how this book relates to their earlier book. Why publish two books on the same theme without telling the reader what can be expected from each book?
I have written several short reviews on trading books. The best way is to compare the score on the books I've read. Many reviews on amazon.com are just glorious 5 star reviews. I use all five categories; sorry but everything isn't "great". Books rated 1 or 2 I would not recommend buying. Books rated 4 are good solid books. Books rated 5 are very good. Naturally all in my humble opinion.

I have a big libray and Dalton books are the best for daytrader and swingtrader but to get all the edge from the books you must have experience in the market.
The best book in my libary was "The master swing trader" by Alan S. Farley.and befor that when I started my way in trading the best was "High probababilty trading" by Marcel Link.

I`m a scalper, and I used to trade with no previous day homework and just relying on my intuition. But since I hit a pretty huge drawdawn, I started to study and learn about, what's actually driving the market and why. This book gave me tons of useful ideas and strategies, improving my skills substantiously in actual trading. It might not be a book that teaches u how to make trillons of dollars, but I think it is essential for a trader who whants a constant result and equity curve. Strongly reccommended.

This book is a waste of money but more importantly it is a waste of life. There is very little in this book that is of any consequence in a trader's quest to better his/her performance.
The book describes different time frames that buyers are in and basically adds an element of volume to common technical indicators to reach very vague and basic conclusions.
The other reviewers must be affiliated or friends of the author because this book does not deserve any stars at all.

I bought this book based on the 5 star ratings in amazon. After reading to about halfway through, I was already questioning why it was rated so high.
If you do not have market profile charting, then this book will NOT help you very much in finding a platform that does have it. The author does make 2 references in the acknowledgements section to CQG and WINdoTRADEr. Most of the chart examples throughout the book are from these references. It would have been nice if he included at least a reference to the CBOT site to at least get an overview and different vendors that have market profile charting - [...]
Not having market profile charting in your current trading platform does make it a little difficult to relate the author's case to your trading, especially when most of the book is based on them.
IF you have market profile charting, are highly analytical and wish to learn how to use market profiling to your advantage then you can benefit from this book.
I personally do not like the fact that quite a few of the charts he does reference have no time frames (including the bar charts). It makes it more difficult to verify the material the author is presenting.
Overall the content is good, but I would have difficult integrating it into my trading style as it may conflict with the trade decision process I already use.
