4.6 / 5.0 Goodreads Rating
How to Day Trade: The Plain Truth by Ross Cameron is a brutally honest, no-nonsense guide to day trading that cuts through the social media hype and get-rich-quick promises plaguing the industry. Written by a verified trader who transformed $583 into over $10 million through more than 20,000 documented and audited trades, this #1 bestseller offers unprecedented transparency in a field often filled with exaggerated claims. Cameron, who has over one million YouTube subscribers watching his real-time trading sessions (wins and losses included), addresses common myths about day trading, provides 20 essential "guardrails" developed through years of experience, and helps readers assess whether day trading fits their personality before they risk capital. Unlike typical trading books focused on charts and technical analysis, this book prioritizes mindset, realistic expectations, and the psychological realities of trading, making it essential reading for both complete beginners and struggling traders seeking authentic, experience-based guidance rather than flashy techniques or false promises.
