The book that answers the most fundamental question in business: Where Will I Make a Profit Tomorrow? Why do some companies create sustained, superior profits year after year? Why are they always far ahead of their competitors in discovering the ever-changing profit zones of their industry? Why do others languish as their traditional way of doing business turns into a no-profit zone? The Profit Zone provides the answers. It is a brilliant, original, and practical explanation of how and why high profit happens.

The must-read summary of Adrian Slywotzky and David Morrison's book: "The Profit Zone: How Strategic Business Design Will Lead You to Tomorrow's Profits". This complete summary of the ideas from Adrian Slywotzky and David Morrison's book "The Profit Zone" shows how it is generally acknowledged that the company with the largest share of the market will ultimately generate the greatest profits. However, Slywotzky and Morrison suggest that not all market share is created equal. In their book, the authors state that in any market, there will be one strategic area where the greatest amount of added-value for the customer will be created. Whichever company can dominate that key strategic area will generate the greatest profits. This summary explains how you can develop four business dimensions in order to place your company in the Profit Zone and ensure future success. Added-value of this summary: • Save time • Understand key concepts • Expand your business knowledge To learn more, read "The Profit Zone" and find out how to tailor your approach and optimise your company's profits.

Financial markets are not predictable, let alone controllable. The one thing traders and investors can control is their trading tactics, where some can have higher probability of profitability than others. This book explains, by using phase analysis, why some of the indicators, and trading tactics would work better than others, and why some indicators and trading tactics would perform poorly. Emphasis is placed on Awesome Oscillator and Accelerator Oscillator, which are based on Simple Moving Average, a popular tool employed by traders. They are then compared to Moving Average Convergence-Divergence (MACD) and MACD Histogram (MACDH), which are based on exponential moving averages. By varying the parameters of MACD and MACDH, one can change the phase or time delay, and possibly make a larger profit. This book is for practitioners, and includes all MATLAB programs used in the book.
