Bird Watching In Lion Country Review

In this Bird Watching In Lion Country review we take a critical look at the 2010 updated version of Dirk Du Toit’s groundbreaking forex ebook.

The original version was released over 5 years ago. It quickly became an all time best seller among forex trading ebooks … in spite of the weird name.

The point of the title is that the forex market is a dangerous jungle … lion country, in fact. Expensive systems from so-called experts lie in wait for the unsuspecting beginner. Some of these ‘experts’ probably do not even trade successfully themselves. Nevertheless they are all trying to sell us something to make forex easy: a simple system that a 10-year-old could use, a robot that will make money for us on autopilot, and other similar tempting promises.

Du Toit criticizes all these systems. He says that there is no way to make money from easy forex trading methods, because forex is never easy. If you want to go bird watching in lion country, he says, you must look around you. You must know what you are looking for but even more important, you must know what to avoid.

If you want a simple forex trading system based on one indicator with fixed rules that you never break, this is not the ebook for you. Dirk Du Toit says that systems like that are too inflexible to work, and you will lose money with them. His own system, outlined in this ebook, takes many different factors into account.

The New Edition

The first version of Bird Watching In Lion Country was a best seller, a must-read for all serious traders. All of the essential ground is still covered in the new version. The book is still the best comprehensive guide to forex trading that you are likely to find online.

Bird Watching In Lion Country 2010 edition gives a little more attention to certain things that were skimmed over too quickly for some people in the first edition, e.g. drawdown. He has also added examples from real trading situations into the new edition.

There is a huge amount of information here. Du Toit’s style is clear but some of the explanations are pretty long. Beginners may find it confusing it places but just go on reading. Take in what you can and it will soon begin to make sense. By the time you reach the end you will almost certainly be fired up and ready to trade.

What I Didn’t Like About Birdwatching In Lion Country

One thing I didn’t like is that after you download the ebook, you will be encouraged to join a mentoring program. Like most mentoring programs this is not cheap and has a very restricted number of places available. It can be frustrating if you are keen to join and cannot because there is no space for you. Alternatively, some people do not get along with mentoring and feel that it is not worth the money.

But there is enough in the ebook itself to give you all the information you need for successful trading. You may not need coaching and even if you decide that you do, it’s not so bad if you have to wait a while. Bird Watching In Lion Country stands out by itself. Taking the time to practice the skills taught in the ebook means that you will be in a better position to make the most of mentoring if and when you decide to go for it.

Summary

The bottom line of this Bird Watching In Lion Country review is that this new edition is a must-have for any forex trader.
