Considering my enthusiasm for The Naked Trader I pre ordered The Naked Trader 2 with the eager anticipation of more light hearted stories and friendly fun. Whilst the book gives you a little of this it seems to try too hard to be a serious trading book and looses the personality of the first. In his attempt to make a proper book (because as he insists it’s not for the money) he gives you a little of everything and not much of anything.

The information within the book is more detailed that the first book but not detailed enough and whilst he tries to show various trading strategies there is the element of vagueness that comes with trading strategies. His strange views on technical’s and charts seems to be born of ignorance and he washes over this whole topic which makes the book quite biased towards fundamentals.

Whilst it is not a bad read it is a little disjointed and didn’t endear me to him as much as the first. If you haven’t read either book the second does give you more trading tips but at the loss of a good read. In the end it comes down to a good fun read vs. more information and no personality. I will stay with the first.
