George Wollsten: Expert Stock and Grain Trader

Since 1932 the author has published four books at intervals dealing with trading of Stocks and Commodities.

Unfortunately much of their contents have been found somewhat hard and difficult to the average man, even to those with a college education.

This time the entire problem has been remodeled, many parts eliminated as “too complicated,” three new ideas added which so far have never been alluded to anywhere It is those three ways which are bound to give confidence to any trader, that put him far ahead of all others who just buy or sell on statistics, economic or other bases.

Everything brought into this book is “home-grown.”

The charts supplied for checking commitments as well as those produced with the aid of certain rules explained therein cover the period of 1909 – 1911 inclusive. The previous books covered periods of 1928 to 1944. Therefore a period of more than 30 years has been used to show that the rules work in any period, past or present; they should work in the future in the same way.

Hints are given to delve into ancient books of the dark ages after the study of this book has been completed to discover that they have all been written on the same subject – cycles and time.

He was also a prolific and successful writer of investment books and author of probably the most unique book ever published on market analysis, Expert Stock Trader.
