A catalogue of fiction, trading, and personal-transformation books by Martin Cole.
Fiction
A reflective novel inspired by real events, about a billionaire and a backpacker whose lives collide after an unexpected accident on a New York sidewalk. From Wall Street to the Peruvian jungle, their journey explores success, freedom, purpose, and the questions that quietly follow us through life.
Personal Transformation
A reflective book about purpose, identity, and the search for a more authentic life. Written for readers who sense there is something more beneath success, effort, and external achievement.
Trading Psychology
A book for traders who feel something is wrong with the ordinary explanation of markets. It explores how traders misread price, structure, and intent — and why understanding behaviour matters more than prediction.
Trading
A trading book focused on how market makers operate, how liquidity is engineered, and how traders can begin to understand the market through accumulation, manipulation, and distribution rather than prediction.
Trading Journal
A practical trading logbook designed to help traders track decisions, behaviour, discipline, and results across stocks, forex, options, futures, and more.
Martin Cole has spent much of his life exploring trading, human behaviour, personal transformation, and the questions that quietly shape a life.
Through both fiction and non-fiction, his work examines success, purpose, identity, and the hidden assumptions that guide our decisions.
He lives in New Zealand and continues to write, trade, and explore ideas that sit at the intersection of psychology, meaning, and personal growth.
