The first-ever book on trading psychology to address the psychological nature of how successful traders think, now updated for today's traders and investors. The Disciplined Trader is the investment industry classic on trading psychology (the field that Douglas and Webb co-founded), an all-time Amazon best-seller which set the bar for all other books on the subject that came later. In this groundbreaking work on the mental game of trading, Douglas and Webb examine the causes as to why 90+ percent of traders cannot keep and sustainably grow their trading account and equity on a regular basis; and provides the trader practical and empirical evidence that the applications on how to update, deflate, and eliminate any limiting thoughts, beliefs or actions. The trader is taken through a step-by-step process to understand what is really holding them back to understand their thoughts affect their results. Traders will also be shown how to examine the common causes that hold them back, and prepare them for a thorough mental upgrade. This is done by illustrating how to develop and apply positive beliefs and prosperous attitudes to transform themselves into consistently prosperous traders through self-reflection and other skills. Traders will also learn how their prosperity and success beliefs manage how they perceive the markets; and how to adapt to the ever-changing market environments in today's world financial climate. The Disciplined Trader is applicable for those new to trading, traders who are returning to the markets after working elsewhere, crypto traders, investment traders, institutional traders, brokers, (in other words all types of traders) and even veteran traders who cannot seem to break through the 'glass ceiling of profit-taking' to a higher threshold of accumulation and consistency. Douglas and Webb have collaborated since 1990 to bring the investment community clear understandings of how our minds interpret the markets, and how to make sure that interpretation is goal-oriented for taking profit every single moment it is available to the trader.

Juan Ramón Rallo reconstruye y destruye en dos tomos el pensamiento económico de Marx Karl Marx es incuestionablemente uno de los pensadores más influyentes de la historia. Ningún otro autor ha logrado un predicamento similar al suyo en disciplinas tan dispares como la Economía, la Filosofía, la Historiografía, la Sociología o las Ciencias Políticas. Sus ideas han alentado movimientos sociales y políticos de masas que en muchos casos llegaron a tomar el poder y a aplicar un programa revolucionario de inspiración marxista. De entre toda la abundantísima literatura que existe sobre Marx, este libro de Juan Ramón Rallo es único por dos motivos. En primer lugar, no hay otra obra que ofrezca simultáneamente una revisión sobre Marx y a la vez contra Marx tan extensa y detallada. En segundo lugar, no existe hasta el momento una crítica integral a la teoría económica marxista tan meticulosa y ordenada como la que presenta Rallo. El primer tomo está dirigido a presentar el pensamiento marxista, especialmente ―aunque no exclusivamente― en su vertiente económica, de un modo sistemático y aséptico: no se pretende ni distorsionar ni caricaturizar a Marx, sino simplemente explicar, del modo más accesible posible, cuáles fueron sus ideas. Con este fin, Rallo revisa, desmenuza e integra la extensa obra de Marx, desde La crítica a la filosofía del derecho de Hegel a las Glosas marginales a Adolf Wagner, pasando por Los Manuscritos económico-filosóficos de 1844, La ideología alemana, La miseria de la filosofía, los Grundrisse, las Teorías sobre la plusvalía, sus artículos en prensa, sus manifiestos políticos, su correspondencia personal y, por supuesto, los tres monumentales volúmenes de El Capital. A través del análisis conjunto de toda esta literatura, auxiliada por el estudio de la obra de Engels y de otros destacados intelectuales marxistas, Rallo consigue exponer de un modo coherente las teorías de Marx sobre el valor, el dinero, el capital, la explotación, los precios, los salarios, las ganancias, las clases sociales, el crecimiento económico, las crisis económicas y el advenimiento del comunismo. En el segundo tomo Rallo hace una crítica exhaustiva y rigurosa del pensamiento marxista: su objetivo es detallar y demostrar todos los errores que cometió Marx al describir la estructura y el funcionamiento del capitalismo para, al mismo tiempo, exponer cuáles son las auténticas anatomía y dinámica de la sociedad moderna. En suma, se pretende rescatar al capitalismo de la crítica marxista a través de la crítica a Marx: una crítica a la crítica.  Con este fin, Rallo desmonta paciente y escalonadamente los pilares que sostienen el edificio intelectual del marxismo. En primer lugar, las mercancías son intercambiables por ser bienes económicos que satisfacen necesidades humanas y se intercambian en función de la importancia relativa de las necesidades que permiten satisfacer. En segundo lugar, valor de uso y valor no son facetas contradictorias de la mercancía, sino facetas que se complementan y potencian mutuamente: el valor no anula al valor de uso, sino que contribuye a multiplicarlo y a desarrollarlo. En tercer lugar, el capitalista no es capitalista por explotar la fuerza de trabajo del obrero, sino por suministrar tiempo, protección e información dentro del proceso de producción, elevando así la productividad social y, por tanto, elevando el bienestar de todos (incluido el del obrero). En cuarto lugar, la circulación del capital no profundiza la separación entre el obrero y los medios de producción, sino que posibilita la capitalización histórica del obrero. En quinto lugar, los precios de producción de las mercancías no guardan ninguna conexión necesaria con sus valores-trabajo sino con sus utilidades marginales para los compradores. En sexto lugar, las clases sociales no están predeterminadas por la posición de cada individuo respecto al control social de los medios de producción, sino que la estructura de control de los medios de producción depende de las funciones económicas que cada individuo desempeñe a través o al margen de esos medios de producción. En séptimo lugar, no hay ninguna tendencia a que la tasa general de ganancia decrezca a largo plazo o, al menos, no por las razones que expone Marx. Y, por último, el comunismo no es una inevitabilidad histórica y su promesa de liberación de la humanidad supondría, en realidad, la supresión de la libertad individual. En su Anti-Marx, Juan Ramón Rallo aborda la titánica tarea de reconstruir y destruir a la vez el pensamiento económico de Marx. Se trata de la más ambiciosa crítica al marxismo escrita hasta la fecha.

AN INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The bestselling author of The Parasitic Mind shows why empathy in politics leads to civilizational collapse. What happens when a society elevates victimhood to a virtue and decides that punishment is cruel? You get the disease Dr. Gad Saad calls suicidal empathy. And the West may be terminally infected. In his new book, Suicidal Empathy, Saad unleashes a blistering critique of maladaptively irrational altruism that has gripped our culture. This mind parasite hijacked the empathy module of our progressive elite, leading to a catastrophic miscalibration of moral priorities. The results are everywhere: from coddling violent criminals to protecting rapists to branding self-defense as toxic behavior. We are witnessing a civilization in rapid decline. Lunatic policies are instituted because we prioritize the feelings of ostensibly marginalized groups over The Truth, criminals over victims, and squatters over homeowners. This is not humane; it’s an active dismantling of the pillars that keep us safe and free. This crisis of empathy creates a horrifying system of inverse morality where the strong and successful are demonized, and the destructive are celebrated. Just look at the insane inversions we tolerate daily: we prefer illegal migrants over our own legal citizens and veterans, permit drug addicts to threaten children’s safety in parks, and elevate transgender 'women' above biological women in sports and safe spaces. Common sense is dying in a deluge of misguided compassion. Suicidal Empathy is your wake-up call. Stop ignoring your survival instincts in the name of political correctness. This isn't just misguided policy; it is the ultimate expression of a culture actively choosing its own demise.

"A provocative and very funny page-turner..."--Wall Street Journal With dry wit and psychological acuity, this near-future novel explores the aftershocks of an economically devastating U.S. sovereign debt default on four generations of a once-prosperous American family. Down-to-earth and perfectly realistic in scale, this is not an over-the-top Blade Runner tale. It is not science fiction. In 2029, the United States is engaged in a bloodless world war that will wipe out the savings of millions of American families. Overnight, on the international currency exchange, the “almighty dollar” plummets in value, to be replaced by a new global currency, the “bancor.” In retaliation, the president declares that America will default on its loans. “Deadbeat Nation” being unable to borrow, the government prints money to cover its bills. What little remains to savers is rapidly eaten away by runaway inflation. The Mandibles have been counting on a sizable fortune filtering down when their ninety-seven-year-old patriarch dies. Once the inheritance turns to ash, each family member must contend with disappointment, but also—as the U.S. economy spirals into dysfunction—the challenge of sheer survival. Recently affluent, Avery is petulant that she can’t buy olive oil, while her sister, Florence, absorbs strays into her cramped household. An expat author, their aunt, Nollie, returns from abroad at seventy-three to a country that’s unrecognizable. Her brother, Carter, fumes at caring for their demented stepmother, now that an assisted living facility isn’t affordable. Only Florence’s oddball teenage son, Willing, an economics autodidact, will save this formerly august American family from the streets. The Mandibles is about money. Thus it is necessarily about bitterness, rivalry, and selfishness—but also about surreal generosity, sacrifice, and transformative adaptation to changing circumstances.

Have you, like the rest of the world, speculated as to the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto, anonymous creator of Bitcoin? The world's first cryptocurrency, Bitcoin went online in 2009 and has since revolutionized our concepts of currency and money. Not supported by any government or central bank, completely electronic, Bitcoin is a virtual currency based on advanced cryptographic systems. Like the currency he created, the identity of Bitcoin's creator Satoshi Nakamoto is virtual, existing only online. The Nakamoto persona, which may represent an individual or a group, exists only in the online publications that introduced and explained Bitcoin during its earliest days. Here, collected and professionally published for the first time are the essential writings that detail Bitcoin's creation. Included are • Satoshi Nakamoto Emails and Posts on Computer Forums Presented in Chronological Order • Bitcoin Fundamentals Presented in Layman's Terms • Bitcoin's Potential and Profound Economic Implications • The Seminal Paper Which Started It All The Book of Satoshi provides a convenient way to parse through what Bitcoin's creator wrote over the span of the two years that constituted his "public life" before he disappeared from the Internet . . . at least under the name Satoshi Nakamoto. Beginning on November 1st 2009 with the publication of the seminal paper describing Bitcoin, this public life ends at about the time PC World speculated as to a possible link between Bitcoin and WikiLeaks, the infamous website that publishes leaked classified materials. Was there a connection? You be the judge. Nakamoto's true identity may never be known. Therefore the writings reproduced here are probably all the world will ever hear from him concerning Bitcoin's creation, workings, and theoretical basis. Want to learn more about Bitcoin? Go directly to the source-the writings of the creator himself, Satoshi Nakamoto!
