Surprisingly good book.,
I was a little sceptical about this book before I bought it. The large tabloid style typeface on the front cover and the name itself reminded me of some sort of ‘get rich quick’ scheme.
I couldn’t have been more wrong. CAN SLIM is an ultra conservative system based on fundamental trading. You’re taught to cut the guesswork out of your stock picking and really understand about why shares go up and down. I particularly liked the sections on minimising your losses. Following the books rules you will never get wiped out and will always survive to trade another day.
I learned an awful lot from this book and I can recommend it to beginners and more advanced traders alike. Great stuff.

|The Best Stock Investing Book for the Average Investor,
Mr. O’Neil has written a modern classic, one that will be read for decades to come.
During a period of market mania or depression, his practical advice will steer you toward timeless principles of successful investing.
I found the book to be clear and accurate, a combination that seldom occurs in investing books. I have reread this book several times, and have learned much from each rereading. One of the book’s strengths is to help you understand how much to pay for a rapidly-growing stock. Momentum stock investors: Be sure to read this book.
The benefits of this book are enhanced by also reading Investors Business Daily.

|THIS BOOK SHOULD OWNED BY ALL INVESTORS,
I have read about a dozen books on how to invest in stocks. And I’m here to tell you, this is undoubtedly the best. The man has been there done it. Whatever mistakes you’ve made in buying and selling stocks, he’s done it. And in this book, he is passing along his wisdom so that you can learn from his past mistakes and get on the road success. If you haven’t been beating the market averages and making a lot of money in the last few years, then it’s because you are not following William O’Neil’s CANSLIM method. CANSLIM is an acronym that defines his trading principles. These principles are the active ingredients that make a stock rise. Take it from me, give up on your hit and miss approach to investing. Begin today on his sound and proven methods of investing and you’ll soon be glad you did. Do you know anybody who have lost or is down more than 50% of their trading capital on a stock? I do. Many of my co-workers have ridden stocks down to over a 70% lost. Now they are stuck in a stock or stocks they can’t afford to sell. And worst of all, they are stuck when the market averages are soaring to heights. (That’s gotta hurt. I know. I’ve been there). O’Neil methods won’t let this happen to you.
To be honest, I was a slow learner too. So,let me take you back a little bit. I first picked up this book in ’92, read it, got excited but then went back to doing it my way. I picked it up again in ’94, read it and made a note in the book that a company stock called DELL fit the profile of his CANSLIM methods, set the book down, forgot about it and went back to doing things my way. (Didn’t buy DELL in ’94) Finally, early last year of ’98, I again picked up the book and read it. This time I saw a little note that I had written in the book in ’94 about DELL and thought to myself ‘why was I so stubborn’ about ‘doing it my way’ that I missed out on so much valuable time and money. Since then, I’ve bought the stock and a few others that have catapuled my portfolio balance to over 200%. Now that feels real good.
Like me for the first time, you’ll probably understand most of what he says in the book but you may not relate to what he says entirely until you’ve been practing or ‘getting your feet wet’ in the stock market for a little while. Since buying and selling stocks is not a perfect science but rather an art, you will need to go back and reread the book many times over while you’re in the market before you’ll truly ‘get it’.
My only critism about his CANSLIM method is that he steers you towards buying stocks with a low number of floating shares which indicate small to mid cap stocks because he says these stocks have the greatest upside potential. I disagree because hitech stocks like Dell, Microsoft, AOL, and Cisco that have gone global can still grow very rapidly if not faster than some of the small guys.
Other than that, armed with this book and his Investors Business Daily, you’ll be able to achieve the returns that you’ve always wanted.
