Beschreibungen

An exchange-traded fund (ETF) is a basket of stocks that trades on an exchange with the same simplicity and liquidity of an individual stock. By the end of 2007, 546 ETFs were trading on U.S. exchanges and some 450 were in registration. The total asset growth of ETFs has been equally impressive, doubling every year since 1994 and reaching $5.8 billion in 2007. <p>In <i>Trading ETFs: Gaining an Edge with Technical Analysis</i> money manager Deron Wagner introduces the major types and families of ETFs and then provides step-by-step guidance to picking and trading funds.</p> <p><b>Benefits of ETFs include:</b></p> <ul> <li>Exposure to equities at a lower level of risk than trading individual stocks</li> <li>Lower fees</li> <li>Access to markets that were previously difficult and expensive to participate in, including: Government Treasury bonds, international markets, commodities and even currencies.</li> </ul> <p>Unlike other books on ETFs, Wagner's strategies are based on technical analysis, a method of timing the market that greatly improves an investor's chances of predicting short and intermediate term ETF trends.</p> <p><b>Benefits of Wagner's approach include:</b></p> <ul> <li>A 'top down' trading strategy that increases an investor's odds of success</li> <li>A method for identifying the strongest sector indexes</li> <li>A method for identifying the ETF families with the greatest relative strength</li> </ul> <p>ETFs are as easy to invest in as mutual funds and they will soon be as popular. Wagner's comprehensive catalog of the ETFs now available, his insights into successful trading techniques, and his solid research and informative examples, will be an invaluable resource for everyone trying to come up to speed on this new investment opportunity.</p> <p><b>Gold Medal Winner (tie), Investing Category, Axiom Business Book Awards (2009)</b></p>

"Valuable not only for a comprehensive cataloguing of the vast array of exchange-traded funds that are now available but also for the insights into successful trading techniques, Deron Wagner's <i>Trading ETFs</i> should become the definitive guide to this increasingly vital part of the capital markets. The book includes numerous examples of the kinds of techniques that Wagner uses in his selection of the most timely ETFs to trade and underscores one of the core insights of his trading discipline, which is to ‘trade what you see, not what you think.’ This book is recommended both to professionals who are using—or should be using—ETFs as an asset class within their portfolios, as well as for the individual investor who wants exposure to wider sectors and geographical regions than those available, with comparable cost-effectiveness,elsewhere."<br /> —<b>Clive Corcoran,</b> Publisher and editor, TradeWithForm.com<br /> Author, <i>Long/Short Market Dynamics</i><br /> Pension fund manager and commentator on CNBC's <i>European Closing Bell</i> <p>"Deron Wagner has written an excellent book, backed up by solid research and informative examples.
