A short, straightforward walk from opening a brokerage account to placing your first trade — fine as far as it goes, but there's nothing here that sets it apart from the dozens of similarly titled beginner guides on the market. No independent reviews to lean on either. Michael Allen's narration is workmanlike and instructional; nothing wrong with it, nothing memorable.
