- Great Entry-Level TA Book for the PriceFor the low price, you really can't get a better entry-level TA book. If you're only looking to add a little TA to your fundamental strategy, or only looking to find out what TA is, this book may suffice. For someone looking to start an in depth study of TA, this is a good starting place. After that I would look at Technical Analysis by Kirkpatrick and Dahlquist. However, for an advanced TA trader this book won't offer much.

- Good book on technical analysisThis is acutally a very good book, and one of the stronger parts is that the author explains what actually happens during the formation of different patterns. I would give this book 4 stars but the charts are awful - I have NO idea why the author has chosen this format for the charts...

- Great Introduction: Practical Common Sense, Little Vodoo, No MagicKamich's book is not for the expert technical analyst or a professional day trader.

- Not bad, but not greatDefinately provides a good review of many TA approaches and I really like how Kamich inputs his personal commentary on the market psychology represented by the charts. The big weakness of this book is the lame charts. Considering this is a TA book, which is all about charts, one would think there would be good examples... There are not! I found myself drawing many of the charts he described. In my oppinion, he should have provided them.
Rating:
- A very good balanceKamich provides a very nicely balanced approach, providing a thorough presentation without becoming an encyclopedia of every obscure technical tool available. The book was written long enough after the 2000 peak that the charts provide both bull and bear examples.
