This book is the first to demonstrate the practical implications of
an important, yet under-considered area of psychology in helping
traders and investors understand the biases and attribution errors
that drive unpredictable behaviour on the trading floor. Readers
will improve their chances of trading successfully by learning
where cognitive biases lead to errors in stock analysis and how
these biases can be used to predict behavior in market
participants. Focusing on the three major types of
bias-Belief-Formation, Quasi-Economic, and Social-the book provides
a rigorous discussion of the literature before explaining how each
of these biases plays out in financial markets. The author brings
together the fields of philosophical psychology and behavioral
finance to introduce "theory of mind," providing readers with tools
to predict biases in others as well as using these predictions to
form optimal trading strategies for themselves. Readers will also
learn to understand their own behaviors, counteracting biases such
as overconfidence and conformity-and the "curse" of their own
knowledge-to strengthen trade performance. Pairing his skill and
experience with an extensive research bibliography, Short positions
the foundational sources of cognitive biases alongside concrete
examples, experimental designs, and trader's anecdotes, helping
readers to apply theoretical guidelines to real-life scenarios.
Shrewd professionals and MBA students will benefit from The
Psychology of Successful Trading's intuitive structure and
practical focus.
