Editorial Review:

Product Description:


A breakthrough explanation of how any investor, regardless of experience, can use technical analysis tools to significantly improve performance



You may consider technical analysis as beyond your expertise and of little tangible value. But evidence proves it can help you achieve your long-term investing goals more quickly. Technical Analysis for the Rest of Us clearly explains basic areas of technical analysis, such as price pattern interpretation and resistance/support levels, and focuses on those areas that are most useful and relevant to individual investors.



This book presents a four-step process for using technical analysis to evaluate your portfolio holdings, sell investments that don’t match your objectives, locate stocks that both meet your objectives and provide superior long-term potential, and reshape your portfolio to improve overall performance.

Rating: - Don't bother.
This book is without merit as a source on technical analysis of securities. It is almost impossible to read on the Kindle owing to the many charts and diagram that are separated from the related text.

Rating: - DON'T USE REAL MONEY TO TRADE WITH THIS BOOK
Very easy to understand, but it lacks depth to use as a real text book for trading. Martin Pring is a much better educator in this field.

Rating: - great intro for tech novice like me
I have always favoured fundamentals until my buddy convinced me to try out technical analysis. Pistolese has written a good book and i feel it is great for a novice like me. Short questions and answers at end of each chapter serve to reinforce self-study. After this, i am itching to try out on the Malaysian equity market.
