Format:Paperback
This book is not only an excellent resource for beginner investors, but also a great review and tool for those more experienced. Originally written in the '60's, this book has stood the test of time due to its clarity and usefulness. The explanations are very easy to understand. The best part of this book are the many charts that clearly identify the patterns discussed. The system offers a "sell philosophy" as well, something that most other investment systems and news services do not (effectively) offer. Chapter's 8-11 get a little esoteric, and I recommend them only for those really into Chartology. But don't forget the end of the book, as some of the best material is in Chapters 12-17. His explanation of the 200-day moving average is beautiful. I've given this book to many people as a gift and I keep a copy of it for reference.

Helped me to understand how charts can help you understand the investor psychology behind price action as viewed on a candlestick or bar chart with volumes. Excellent adjunct to books like O'Neill's How To Make Money in Stocks.

I've owned this book for 18 years
28 Dec 1999
Format:Paperback
My broker gave me a used hard-back copy of this book in 1981. I still have the book, and he's still my broker. I have probably read it 6 or 8 times, and I use it for reference on a regular basis. Until I discovered that it was not out of print, and was in fact available at Amazon.com, I considered my copy valuable and guarded it as such.
I have found it to be a very simple and straight forward explanation of the predictability and repeatability of the behavior of stock traders. I guess a study of traders in financial markets is timeless, as this book is filled with charts of stocks during the late 1950's and early 1960's. Charting patterns and formations haven't changed since then, and probably never will.
I attribute most of my investing success to this book, and consider it a must for ALL traders and investors.

Chart Analysis Overview.....

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Great book for beginning investors concerned about the TA side investing. I have owned this book for years and still find myself referring back to it on a constant basis. If you follow the market using charts or would like to start then this book is a must. It is extremely informative on the different techniques, formations and patterns to examine when reading charts. It is easy to follow and the examples are very descriptive. It does not get to technical, yet it maintains a clear, concise & knowledgeable approach to the various explanations. This book has unquestionably broadened my horizons & guided my investing success.
