Just fair, sorry to say. We'll get into a second printing, almost surely, which will at least allow the correction of several really scuzzy copyedit errors. And, an upcoming review in Futures Magazine will probably help a bit (know the chap who wrote the review, and its content -- talk about stacking the deck (g!)).

A number of people have told me that the book should have had more hype, that it was entertaining enough, but wasn't going to make a reader charge up and go and tell all his/her friends to start trading in the fashion I advocate (and/or, presumably, buy the book). Possibly true, but I can't write like that, and wouldn't if I could. There's far too much hype and utter nonsense in print already about trading; why add to a pile of crap, eh?

If you've any interest in the subject, I'll be the featured guest on the Sunday Forum at www.marketforum.com, 8pm CST Sunday, Dec 14. No registration required, just jump in (not, of course, that any FReeper would be shy about that!).

Thanks for your interest, and Happy Hols!
