It's only a preview, but a good start if you're truly interested: Trading and exchanges: market microstructure for practitioners By Larry Harris

If the missing pages bother you, it's time to buy the book.

Thanks for the additional resources StoragePro, LasVah, capitalist88 and Scotty (and others I may have missed). Very interesting indeed.

There's a couple of things I'd like to add that may help someone. If not, it's no sweat off my back.

First is the statement my mentor (a good friend) made to me at the beginning of my journey some years ago.

"I can help you build your path, but you're the one who has to walk down it"

Skfx has laid a pretty good path IMHO. It's up to you to walk down it.

Second, Darkstar, Gaston and daytrading all appear to have a number of years of first hand experience in the industry. This alone would be worth it's weight in gold. Most of us here are home traders, we're way behind the field so-to-speak.

And lastly execution. That's what it's all about. Not just in trading, but everything you do in life.

Think of footballer. Here in Australia we have two types of football. Aussie Rules and Rugby. Do you think they know the physics behind the sport they play? Ha! No they don't, most of them are bone heads (I used to be one. Still am... lol).

One thing they all have in common is that they know how and when to execute to do their job, and they do it the better than anyone else. That's why they are Pro's.

Many are wishing they could and seem to be spending all of their time trying to find it.
