I endorse this book. I have read more than 10 books on TA and I still feel this book is the best

Prop fund manager here. Please use this. I want more money, and the liquidity you provide helps me attain this goal

I have this on my bookshelf. Retail traders lose > 90% of the time. I wouldn't encourage this. The odds are just staying within the index. A lot of studies have confirmed this / academia. I've done both, did far better in the index with 0 effort. All that excess time trading should be learning math to pump one's career or personal finance or tax mitigation strategies. Trading for many can be a rabbit hole that leads no where (or worse, to ruin). Do some videos of risk of ruin & Martingale betting systems!

I’ve seen investors blow up their portfolios with valuation analysis and technical analysts make millions. Don’t be stupid — learn as much as you can about everything.

Love this book. Very comprehensive. Specific TA price configurations and moving averages are predictive, more often than not, some more than others. Combined, one CAN get an edge in the market. You can and should back test that method on past market action, to confirm that edge. Then monitor the performance of your market edge, because it will eventually lose effectiveness. Rinse and repeat with a new method. People who don't like TA and say it doesn't work truly have not done their due diligence. The best approach is a combination of fundamental and technical analysis, taking into account market psychology, and having an ear to the ground for sudden shocks to the system that can move the market quickly. Study smart, and go make money.

It's like saying astrology is better than nothing. Sometimes nothing is better.

Technical Analysis is like astrology that tracks possibility of events based on planetary alignment with stars. Follow it at your own peril. Value investing is the way to go

[russellschaeffler]

It is a great book to study, then look for when the patterns don't work and learn to fade them.

If you want to gain expertise at driving on a winding mountain road using only what you see in your rear view mirrors, then TA is for you!

[tecnition]

Please talk about the strategies within the book that you resonate with most. Would love your opinion on this, thank you!

[GrumpierByTheDay]

You should check the books by Al Brooks. Master of pure price action.

I’d say intuition after enough of studying a company and then investing for the really long term in something you understand, is far better than learning technical analysis. You can try spending loads of time delving deeply into stocks astrology and alchemy, I’ll do real investing. You keep your inverted scrotum patterns on stock charts.

What about Benjamin Graham’s book, The Intelligent Investor?

[SuperNovaJinckUFO]

Do you have any personal experience with the techniques from that book? I'm interested

[sushan]

If there are any Indians here.. can you please verify that this book is worth for indian market?

Invertir es una de las cosas más difíciles que hay. Además desde finales de los 90 está tan automatizada que es difícil por no decir imposible, competir contra las inteligencias artificiales que gobiernan los mercados. Nos podemos consolar leyendo libros de teorías de juegos y así aprendemos muchas matemáticas. Nadie gana dinero mirando gráficos que suben y bajan. No hay patrones, solo hay AI y mucho dinero. Siempre gana la AI

Have you ever read the mathematical ideas of Professor Jose Arguelles?

[Starlight]

Thank you so much sir just searching for this!!
