Books added to top trading books list

I added two new books to my list of top trading books

"One Good Trade" and "The Playbook" by Mike Bellafiore.

See my recommendation added at the end of my post on top trading books.

Both books by the author are very good. While he talks about prop trading desk, trading U.S. stocks and ETFs on a 1 minute charts and "tape reading", while I trade forex End-of-Day, so a very different approach, but everything about trading mindset, psychology, how to think, how to develop, how to learn - I am finding all of this very relevant and helpful for high quality end of day forex trading, which I do.
