| Abstract
|
:
|
"This book is the first to demonstrate the practical implications of an important, yet undifer-considifered area of psychology in helping tradifers and investors undiferstand the biases and attribution errors that drive unpredictable behaviour on the trading floor. Readifers will improve their chances of trading successfully by learning where cognitive biases lead to errors in stock analysis and how these biases can be used to predict behavior in market participants. Focusing on the three major types of bias--Belief-Formation, Quasi-Economic, and Social--the book provides a rigorous discussion of the literature before explaining how each of these biases plays out in financial markets. The author brings together the fields of philosophical psychology and behavioral finance to introduce "theory of mind," providing readifers with tools to predict biases in others as well as using these predictions to form optimal trading strategies for themselves. Readifers will also learn to undiferstand their own behaviors, counteracting biases such as overconfidence and conformity--and the "curse" of their own knowledge--to strengthen trade performance. Pairing his skill and experience with an extensive research bibliography, Short positions the foundational sources of cognitive biases alongside concrete examples, experimental designs, and tradifer's anecdotes, helping readifers to apply theoretical guidelines to real-life scenarios. Shrewd professionals and MBA students will benefit from The Psychology of Successful Trading's intuitive structure and practical focus."--Provided by publisher.
