24 Essential Lessons for Investment
Success: Learn the Most Important
Investment Techniques from the
Founder of Investors Business Daily
by William J. ONeil
Two Great Sites That Are Faithful To O'neil's Strategy
In 24 Essential Lessons for Investment Success, the founder of Investors
Business Daily and author of How to Make Money in Stocks, William
ONeil, distills his 40 years of experience, study, and analysis of the market
into a series of lessons about how to buy and sell stocks. ONeil is neither
a pure fundamentalist nor a technician--instead, he advocates blending
both approaches, applying fundamental analysis to identifying the best
companies and technical analysis to understanding the price actions of
those stocks. The lessons cover everything from protecting your
investment account (always cut your losses at 8 percent of the purchase

price) and basic chart reading (identifying market tops and bottoms) to
understanding relative price strength and tips on building a concentrated
portfolio. While not absolutely necessary, it helps to have a copy of
Investors Business Daily handy: these lessons were drawn from a series
that ONeil wrote, which frequently mention features unique to that
newspaper. 24 Essential Lessons for Investment Success is a easy-to-
read, commonsense guide to stock picking that both novices and
seasoned investors should find extremely useful. --Harry C. Edwards
Personal Review: 24 Essential Lessons for Investment Success:
Learn the Most Important Investment Techniques from the
Founder of Investors Business Daily by William J. ONeil
This book isn't about getting rich quick. It takes time, study diligence and
patience coupled with controlling ones emotions to become an excellent
investor.
William O'Neil, who started a successful financial paper known as
Investors Business Daily, wrote How to Make Money in Stocks. Decade of
research, critical thinking and common sense has helped O'Neil to create
some very powerful ways of investing successfully. He melds both the
technical and fundamental aspects of investing.
Each of the 24 lessons in this book is provided in a chapter form. Just a
few of the powerful lessons are: Follow a system Rather Than your
Emotions (Lesson 3), How to Buy a Stock at Just the Right Moment
(Lesson 9) How to Gauge the Stock market's Health (Lesson 12) and
many more.
I have read many books, magazines and articles on investing in stocks,
bonds, mutual funds and more over the years. O'Neil's ideas are some of
the most solid and consistent I have found to apply to the stock market.
They are easy to read and understand the basic...but like anything worth
while...it takes years to be good. I have read three of O'Neil's books and
have found rich ideas in all of them.
