Publisher's Summary
Best Loser Wins is an intimate insight into one of the most prolific high-stake retail traders in the world. Tom Hougaard is the winner of multiple trading competitions and on one occasion traded £25,000 into more than £1 million over the course of a year.
While the average retail trader risks £10 per point in the underlying asset, Tom Hougaard frequently risks up to £3,500 per point. This risk exposure requires a mindset that is out of the ordinary. Normal thinking leads to normal results. For exceptional results, traders must think differently.
This book will guide and inspire you in ways no other trading book has. It is not about strategies and money management. It is about mind management. Tom Hougaard provides a unique and refreshingly personal account of how an ordinary trader elevated his game to incredible heights by focusing as much on his mental approach as on his technical analysis.
Best Loser Wins explains how you, by thinking differently when you are trading, can elevate your game from mediocre and sporadic, to excellent and consistent. No amount of technical analysis will ever do that for you.
Tom Hougaard says, “People don’t fail because they don’t know enough about technical analysis. They fail because they don’t understand what the markets are doing to their minds.” Best Loser Wins is an antidote to conventional and flawed thinking in trading, and a blueprint for a new belief system for traders who want to elevate their results to levels they never dreamed they could reach.

What is the Wyckoff Methodology? It is a technical analysis approach based on the study of supply and demand; that is, on the continuous interaction between buyers and sellers. The approach is simple: When well-informed traders want to buy or sell, they carry out processes that leave their traces on the chart through price and volume. The Wyckoff Methodology tries to identify that professional intervention to try to elucidate who is most likely to be in control of the market and enable us to pose judicious scenarios of where the price is most likely to go.

Hungarian by birth, Nicolas Darvas trained as an economist at the University of Budapest. Reluctant to remain in Hungary until either the Nazis or the Soviets took over, he fled at the age of 23 with a forged exit visa and 50 pounds sterling to stave off hunger in Istanbul, Turkey. During his off hours, he read some 200 books on the market and speculators, studying as much as eight hours a day. Darvas invested his money into some of stocks that had been hitting their 52-week high. He was surprised that the stocks continued to rise and subsequently sold them to make a large profit.

Best trading coaching book.
The authenticity, honesty and modesty of the author is extremely rare in the trading world. This book really stands out.
Personally I think it is even better and more helpful then trading in the zone.
Perhaps not ideal for beginners, give yourself a year of trading study and practice, before you read it.

Excellent resource for any serious trader
Tom Hougaard goes into the most important issues that every day trader or day trader wanna be faces. I have followed Tom's Telegram Channel for a number of years and I know he is a legit and serious trader that has been trying to help the interested individuals become successful traders. I don't know if this book will turn any traders into successful traders as that depends on their level of commitment, motivation and dedication to succeed. But it surely provides some very important and useful information to improve every traders' performance. In my opinion this book is a must read for every serious trader! I will be getting a paper copy to add it to my trading library.

Excellent Book!
In my opinion, Tom Hougaard’s book “Best Loser Wins”, is excellent, because Tom shares his personal trading journey and his life lessons which are great!
Tom emphasizes the importance of having discipline, routine, and trading plans. Tom dives into why technical analysis alone will not lead you to becoming a successful trader.
Tom shares great stories with statistics to back it up that thinking differently and acting differently than the herd of traders who lose- is the way to becoming a successful trader!
And Tom explains in great detail why in trading
why the ‘Best Loser Wins’.
And this is a bit random but I also loved to learn that
Tom helps people who suffer from alcohol addiction.
Tom’s book has helped me tremendously with the psychology of trading and the importance
of preparing for the markets!
I highly recommend ‘Best Loser Wins’.
Thank you very much Tom for writing
this great book!
With love and gratitude,

The best trading book I have ever read
I have read many trading books. Only two standout to me and this is one of them. It's similar to my other favorite trading in the zone. It's no wonder it's similar since Tom was a fan of Mark Douglas.
This book is like an updated version of trading in the zone which I regarded as the trading Bible. What I like about Best Loser Wins is it gives you practical examples of things you can do to instill these new beliefs. Like actually wanting it.
Tom I cannot thank you more for your service to all traders.
