The value leader

I don't know where you can get an explanation of Point & Figure charting (I've seen it but never could understand this thing), John Murphy's succint, highly readable and technically important Intermarket Analysis (which started a whole field) including the SECTOR rotation section missing from the longer work (and much more readable to boot)!!..., Linda Bradford Raschke's take on the history of TA with a roundup the Great Thinkers, Bernie Schaeffer & Larry Williams 's Treatise on Sentiment, Steve Nison on Candlesticks, Elliott Wave counting, Peter Steidelmayer's Market Analysis (an alphabet soup hand charting method that the Floridian is objecting to but many in the industry consider pivotal), the basic idea behind the mysterious Turtle Trading sysstem's Money Management, and the Options wizard Larry McMillian reviewing how Volatility and Options interact at such a price. Perhaps the only thing missing is the Random Walkers;-) This book is a real joy to own with allot in there to make you stop and re-think. You should get this book if you want to survey the field and then drill down from there. Raschke's first at bat historial review with some of her own TA thrown in for good measure gets you going and the others make it hard to stop. I can honestly say outside of 1 typo/error, this book is flawlessly editted with lots of graphs. I was truly impressed & that's after reading allot on this field. Yes not everything is interesting(I care less about Sentiment) but now I know more about it and can understand why Schaeffer and Williams think its important. But that's the beauty of this book, chockablock information about allot of topics in TA. A good starter, a better review.

Highly Recommended!

In this compilation edited by Morgan Stanley Dean Witter technical strategist Rick Bensignor, a dozen financial experts discuss their individual approaches to technical analysis of the stock market. In the first chapter, equities, options and futures trader Linda Bradford Rasche explains swing trading and the underlying principles of technical analysis, thus providing an important primer for understanding the theories in the rest of the book. This is a complex read, since technical analysis involves using various mathematical systems to examine market trends and swings. Those who follow the market closely will find this engrossing, but amateurs could be daunted. We [...] recommend the book to serious students of the markets - It's not for the casual browser or those who are not mathematically inclined, but its targeted readers will be quite satisfied.

A new perspective on TA

This is an excellent book for both novices and experienced technical analysts and traders. The beginner will discover in a clear and concise way the main ramifications of this discipline, and choose the most appropriate instruments for his style and personality. The seasoned technician will fine tune his approach to the instruments presented in the book. The authors go straight to the point and offer an involving overview. I personally found of particular interest the two chapters dedicated to sentiment analysis, a topic often underestimated in TA books and articles, but one that can add a new dimension to one's trading and investment style. A revised edition could go deeper into the issue of mechanical systems.

FEAR NOT HAVE NOT

Fear not have not simply stands for "fibbonacci,elliot,analysis retracement" which means nothing ventured nothing gained. I've been trading stocks and futures for a long time and this book is informative, insightful and practical. I'm pretty well versed at technical analysis and I think you will definitely find shooting stars other than in the sky. Well worth the price of a trade!Joe Metzger
