EQ vs. IQ: The reason why not every intelligent trader or investor is rich!

In this, his third, and without doubt most important book to date, successful trader, investor and best selling author Mark Shipman covers the most critical aspect of successful speculation, namely the psychology of taking risk. It doesn’t matter how intelligent or well educated you are; how well you understand fundamental analysis or how accomplished you are at interpreting charts; it all counts for nothing if you allow your emotions to gain the upper hand. Mark utilises his twenty-seven years of experience as a professional trader and investor to guide the reader through the numerous pitfalls and psychological problems that can sabotage even the brightest of minds. And in providing his own personal methods for surviving and prospering, he proves that your emotional intelligence (EQ) has a far greater influence over your success than your IQ.
