‘CFDs Made Simple’ is a fantastic resource for anyone looking to make a success of trading contracts for difference. Ashley and Jeff have covered all the bases, from how to get started through to executing advanced trading strategies, in a clear, coherent and easy-to-understand way, so that even a total beginner could walk away with the knowledge and understanding required to make it as a CFD trader.

If you’re just starting out in CFDs, look no further than ‘CFDs Made Simple’ for everything you need to know to become an accomplished, successful and profitable CFD trader.

In straightforward, easy to understand language this book sets out a solid, practical and well presented approach to trading CFDs.

This book is a must read for anyone new to or thinking about trading CFDs as it sets out uncomplicated, strategic processes to help to get to grips with all a novice would need to know which can then be practically applied quickly.

CFDs made simple! Great name isn’t it, and the reality is that trading CFDs is simple after the first half dozen or so years. I started trading CFDs back in 2000 around the time I first met Geoff and a little later Ashley. We all had one thing in common a desire to trade and a desire to do it now, the other thing we had in common was that we all worked for the same firm which gave us the ability and time to work our individual trading strategies out by bouncing ideas off of each other.

Take it from someone who knows, trading is a really easy thing to get into, in my line of work we see it all the time. Guys ring up and say I want to trade CFDs do you do that? We say yes and ask if they have traded before and if so do they have a plan? The answers nine times out of ten are scary!

As a result they do not become our clients.

Trading for a living can be, if you don’t do it in a disciplined manner, be the same as owning a boat, something you pour money into and a couple of times a month it gives you something back.

It is for this reason and the fact the Geoff and Ash are not only my good mates but also great traders, that I cannot recommend this book highly enough. I know that their book will drive home the fact that discipline and planning the trade is everything. Couple this with the strategies of building your CFD trading business (yes it is a business) and the fact that they take you through the journey of getting that first trade on from A to Z and you have every chance of getting it right more times than not.

Once again I cannot recommend Geoff and Ashley’s book to you highly enough. I also recommend you read it taking notes then read it again, and remember there is no such thing as too much knowledge.

Trade well

Every now and then a book comes along that is a ‘must have’ for traders. This is one of those books, clearly and cleverly  written by advanced traders so that everyone will get something from it. This is THE book for CFD trading.

One of my definitions of genius is someone who can take a complicated subject and explain it in a simple and effective way so that anyone can understand it. In this book CFDs Made Simple, Ashley and Jeff do just that.

Trading may well be one of the most challenging things you will undertake in your life but once you master it, it will be one of the most rewarding.

If you only ever read one chapter in one book about trading let it be the chapter about a trading plan in Ashley and Jeff’s book ‘CFDs Made Simple’

As you may know many businesses fail in the first 12 months, the ones that make it through the first 12 months increase their chance of success many fold. The businesses that do succeed have one thing in particular in common, they have a great and easy to follow business plan with targets and time frames. Trading is exactly the same. In my opinion a trading plan is the most important tool in your trading strategy. It gives you the ability to make decisions quickly and without indecisiveness when the pressure is on.

Investing on any level is risky even putting your money in the bank can be risky in some circumstances just look at the people who lost their entire wealth in the last depression when some banks lost everything. A good and successful investor is the investor who can find a way to mitigate their losses and a well thought out trading plan will allow you to do just that before you get into a position of being in a drawdown and will give you rules to follow rather than trying to decide what to do in the moment when you are in an emotional state. I can guarantee you if you don’t have these rules in place before you start you will lose money.

Whether you are a novice, beginner or already a full time successful trader this book will be an important tool in your arsenal and I recommend you read and re read it as many times as you can to gain a greater insight into how you can glean more profits with less risk from this rewarding but very challenging vocation.

Gentlemen thank you for taking the time and effort to publish this genuinely knowledgeable and informative piece of writing.
