    About this audiobook

    More than 80 million investors lost 50 to 80 percent of their savings in the recent stock market crash. Investor's Business Daily publisher William J. O'Neil, however, was one of the first to see, and warn investors about, the dangers inherent in what had been, up to that point, a historic bull market run. Those who followed his counsel were able to sidestep devastating losses and emerge with their sizable bull market profits largely intact.
    In The Successful Investor, O'Neil steps up to tell all investors how they can make money and, more important, avoid losses in up markets, down markets, and everything in between. Showing how mistakes made in the recent market collapse were amazingly similar to those made in previous down cycles, O'Neil reveals simple steps investors can follow to avoid costly mistakes and:
    Buy only the best stocks at only the best times
    Follow a market-tested 3-to-1 Profit-and-Loss Percentage Plan
    Know when to sell for the biggest possible profit
    Recognize chart patterns that presage enormous market moves
    Manage a portfolio over time to maximize its returns
    William O'Neil has succeeded in virtually every market environment by following a stable, non-emotional investment plan. In his latest book, O'Neil explains how anyone can follow that plan to become a profitable long-term investor, regardless of market tides or turns.
