High praise for Trading Systems and Methods, Fifth Edition
"Kaufman's book has continued to expand and mature since I first read the very first edition, which I thought was a great book. It continues to be a relevant, comprehensive guidebook and cookbook of trading system methods. For all those who are interested in building trading systems, it is an essential resource."
—Dr. Ian J. Nield, Special Advisor, Financial Markets Department, Reserve Bank of New Zealand, Wellington
"The new Fifth Edition of Perry Kaufman's Trading Systems and Methods is a significant step forward in understanding trading in the twenty-first century. Perry has taken the most important book on systematic trading and made it even better and more relevant by focusing on the challenges of trading in these remarkable times. In particular, Perry expands on his discussion of risk which has been an important focus of everything he has written, but now takes on even more importance. The Fifth Edition should be required reading for anyone serious about trading."
—Jeff Quinto, President, Electronic Futures Trader Inc., Professional Trader Mentoring Program and Professional Trader Academy
"In my two decades in this industry, one of the few constants has been Trading Systems and Methods. This book is simply the most complete single source of trading methods that work. If you're going to own only one trading book, this is it."
