5 Stock Trading Books for Beginners – StockBrain
Books are one of many great resources that can teach you how to trade in the stock market. But let’s be honest, they may not be the best option, what with the introduction of the internet and instant access to blogs, forums and other communities. Books have kind of taken a back seat when it comes to teaching how to trade. That being said, books are still a good source of general knowledge for foundation-building and shouldn’t be ignored completely. We’ve put together this list of books to help you out.

3. The Essays of Warren Buffet: Lessons for Corporate America by Warren Buffet
The essays comprising this book, selected mostly from Warren Buffett’s letters to the shareholders of Berkshire, provide a guide to fundamental business analysis and an approach to wise investing. A central point that Buffett makes is that good investors, rather than focusing on the market, should identify good businesses, attempt to buy them at good prices, and hold them for the long term. Buffett has done just this in his management of Berkshire.

4. One Up on Wall St. by Peter Lynch
America’s most successful money manager tells how average investors can beat the pros by using what they know. According to Lynch, investment opportunities are everywhere. From the supermarket to the workplace, we encounter products and services all day long. By paying attention to the best ones, we can find companies in which to invest before the professional analysts discover them. When investors get in early, they can find the “tenbaggers,” the stocks that appreciate tenfold from the initial investment. A few tenbaggers will turn an average stock portfolio into a star performer.
