I always fall back to 'Art of War'. If you do have to end up in battle, metaphorically, this can philosophically and practically prepare you.

The best one's for me are Blink and Sun Tzu, one helps you recognize the value of instincts, the other helps you apply and use them. I found the best written books still only provide something of a roadmap relative to understanding your experiences and help strategize on how to learn from them.
Today the SP 500 hit an intraday all time high just like I said it would in June...be testing the "previous high in January."

And what did Sun say about knowing yourself and your enemy? You can't learn that shyte in a book you have to work the principles out for yourself. That takes time effort and desire. Toil long enough and you can become a master Jedi to. lol

"End up in battle." Say what? 'Everything I do is tactical and serves strategic goals.
