- The first to do "Evidence based technical analysis"This guy will teach you that a symmetrical triangle has three prognosis:
1. up;

- From the Stock Traders Headquarters libraryThis book covers most trading patterns and explains the statistical chances of each pattern being successful. Includes a scoring system for each pattern. Whether you believe in the probabilities in the book as they relate to each pattern is not important. The patterns themselves are the heart of the book in my opinion.

The author claims that he has tested the significance of his work and yet doesn't bother to provide the user with sufficient information to draw the same conclusions.

So many trading books put forth simple rules to trade and offer no evidence that their rules work. Anyone who's tried trading knows it is anything but simple - if it were, everyone could become a millionaire in their spare time after reading a couple of books or buying ... Read More
