"Day Trading for Dummmies" gives the reader a very basic overview of the various stock markets and other financial instruments available for trading. It also discusses various aspects of technical analysis. Very clearly presented and useful information.
The only downside to the book is that the author constantly states that you should "pick a trading strategy and stick to it" but doesn't give any guidance about legitimate strategies. There are a lot of cracked pots who have written books on trading strategies. A book like this, designed for introduction, should give you a little more information about where to go for the subsequent step in your trading education.

Should have been "Stock trading for dummies". Absolutely worthless book, if you are looking for specific day trading information. Full of regurgitated information about technical analysis and stock glossary, etc. Try `The Market Maker's Edge' by Josh Lukeman...

This book has been wonderful for me explaining the very basics of day trading! I would highly reconmend this book to anyone who wants to see what it's all about and how things work. It's obviously not meant to be a detailed book but more of "what this means and what that means". Perfect for dummmies!

I have a Mensa IQ - have traded equities for 15 years and found this book to be complex and difficult to read. It presumes a lot of things that puts this well outside the title " For Dummies." "Daytrading for Intermediate to Advanced Traders" would be more honest.
If you are looking for simple understanding of the day trading concept, look elsewhere. If you want an advanced text, this is probably a minimally fair choice.
