Why I wrote a trading guide on how I made £300 with 30 minutes work

Hi,
[Note, this book is currently not available]
Before I start, let it be noted that that title is tongue in cheek. I did make £300, but it wasn't really half an hour. The actual research and analysis takes more like about three to five hours cumulatively over the month. But the £300 is in reference to a couple of trades I did over the course of a week in which I spent only half an hour or so researching. But I'll be perfectly honest, if you are going to be a good trader, you'll need to spend months and years honing your skills. The good side is, the basics can be learnt in a couple of hours.

Anyway, It's been a long time and I've been up to a lot of different things, not least setting up my first company and finishing off my second novel. The investment fund I manage has also been going well. There was a 8.56% rise in the last month. In this time I also managed to write up a book that I've been wanting to write up for a long, long time. People regularly ask me how to trade, how I make money by trading, and all these other questions that I get sick of giving the same answers to every time. Read on to see how you could get this book for free!


Now, my cousin is big in internet marketing and he has his own products that he sells and others that he recommends to his readers, and he said to me, "hey Ibrahim, why don't you write a book about how you make your money?"

So I gave it a bit of thought and I decided, yeah, why not, let's give it a go. I wrote up the book, then started researching my competition who were also hawking their products. Very soon I got seriously pissed off. These people are offering trading systems that never go wrong. They offer get-rich-quick schemes, they offer massive profits for little time. They offer trading systems where you don't need to know anything and just need to press a few buttons. What rubbish. And its not just one of them or a few of them, its the whole bloody bunch of them!

Well, I'm not getting into that sick and twisted world of selling abstract profits and pipe dreams. My "sales pitch" is just a couple of lines rather than a bunch of red writing telling me to buy now before I die and its too late. I'm leaving it up to the person to decide - as it should be. I don't particularly care about the profits to be perfectly honest - in fact I got talked out of giving it free by my cousin - but, as my cousin argued, something you pay for makes it more valuable and then people actually read it.

[Above is a share.com statement of my accounts for the previous month. As you can see I've turned £2787.56 into £3018. That's a profit of about 8.3%. So if you'd used my system with £100,000 you'd have made £8000, which is a well paid job. Or you could just use it like I do, and build up your 100k yourself. The point is I made profit using my system.]

So I'm setting a nominal price of £2.50 on my book and leave it up to you guys to decide. In fact, if you approach me and seem like a decent guy, I might even just trust you and give the book for free in return for £10 once you start turning a profit.

In the book I go through my trading system which I use on shares and have used on Forex, both successfully, and the places I get my info from, and how I analyse the market. Simple stuff really, but stuff that's taken me years of enthusiastic involvement in the markets and reading to compile. Stuff that will take you years of trading and making losses to compile.

Buy this book or not, just don't ask me again for trading advice because I'll just point you to this website!

I've been browsing online greater than 3 hours these days, yet I by no means found any interesting article like yours. It's beautiful price enough for
me. Personally, if all site owners and bloggers
made just right content as you did, the net will probably be
a lot more helpful than ever before.

Hey there! I understand this is sort of off-topic but I needed to ask.

Does operating a well-established blog such as yours require a massive amount work?

I'm brand new to blogging however I do write in my journal every day. I'd like to start a blog so I can easily share my own
experience and views online. Please let me
know if you have any recommendations or tips for new aspiring bloggers.

Appreciate it!

Right now it sounds like BlogEngine is the best blogging platform out there right
now. (from what I've read) Is that what you are using on your blog?
