Praise for Trade to Win
Tom’s book Trade to Win brings discipline to the art of trading and
teaches us how to block out the static and concentrate on what’s
important to be a successful trader. Anyone wanting to learn how
to be a successful trader needs Tom’s insight into futures strategies
and market psychology to maneuver through today’s markets.
—Norman Blake, Sr. Vice President, Stanford Financial Group
A good read for any investor. What I found most valuable was
Tom’s discussion of trade management. Post-trade decision
making is critical for successful trading.
—Alex Jacobson, Education Officer
at the International Securities Exchange (ISE)
In Tom Busby’s newest book Trade to Win, Pearl of Wisdom #
advises the trader ‘Do not worry about the direction the market
goes. Go with the market.’ As a marginally successful stock trader
for several years, I have painfully learned the frustration and
difficulty of adhering to this seemingly simple, yet elusive rule.
Tom’s methods, classes, and books have helped me tame emotional
trading and achieve much needed hope and success. This newest
book in the DTI arsenal is another valuable chapter in my trading
education and anyone seeking success in trading will profit from
Mr. Busby’s wisdom, experience, and trading discipline.
—Charlie Prince, President, Prince Marketing Inc.
This is a real hands-on for all new traders to gain knowledge of
the life and psychology of veteran traders. It provides the skills
needed to survive in today’s volatile markets. I highly recommend
this book.
—Fausto Pugliese, President, CyberTrading University
Trade to Win
Proven Strategies to Make Money
Thomas L. Busby
with Patsy Busby Dow
Trading to win is a mindset.
Those who succeed in the financial marketplace
are the ones who expect to do so. They learn
about the markets, they work at their craft,
and, as markets and technologies change, they
change with them.
Nobody understands this better than
author Thomas Busby. Over the years, he
has traded an array of products, including
equities, futures, commodities, precious
metals, ETFs, and options, and, in so doing,
has developed some sensible moneymaking
strategies. Now, with Trade to Win, you have
the opportunity to learn from a professional
trader who teaches from the experience of
doing daily battle with the bulls and bears of
today’s financial markets.
Divided into three comprehensive parts,
Trade to Win opens up by explaining the
fundamental elements of Busby’s trading
approach. It deals with the significance
and use of time, key numbers, and market
indicators, and discusses how these elements
of trading work together to help you properly
“read the tape” and understand the language
of the markets.
Part II moves on to detail specific trading
strategies. Here, you’ll find strategies for
trading stocks, options, futures, and other
financial products. Some of the strategies
outlined exploit market inefficiencies that
are created as trading shifts from one major
time zone to another, while others will
allow you to profit from the interdependence
among market sectors. Rounding out this in-
depth look at making it in today’s markets, Part
III of Trade to Win goes beyond the numbers
to address a few of the often overlooked
aspects of this endeavor, including risk
management, money management, and the
impact of emotions on your trading.

If you’re looking for a trading system for all
markets, you won’t find it here. In fact, you
won’t find it anywhere. Systems don’t work
because financial markets are always in a
state of flux.
And it’s not only prices that move, but also
the general economy and the mindset of
traders that change. The only way to be an
effective trader over the long-term is to learn
and adapt as things change. That’s what this
book is all about, and the information you find
throughout these pages will allow you to
achieve this goal and improve your overall
trading consistency and profits in the process.
THOMAS L. BUSBY has been a professional
trader and broker since the early ’80s, working
with Merrill Lynch and Smith Barney. Since
its founding in 1996, the Diversified Trading
Institute (DTI) has grown into one of the most
successful trading schools in the world. After
enormous success early in his career, Busby
lost almost everything in the 1987 stock
market crash. Following that experience,
he developed a low-risk, short-term trading
method that consistently generates profits
and is the basis of the DTI curriculum. Busby
is also the author (with Patsy Busby Dow) of
The Markets Never Sleep and Winning the
Day Trading Game, both from Wiley.
PATSY BUSBY DOW is an attorney, trader, and
former educator. She is currently employed by
the Diversified Trading Institute as a staff writer.
