Rating: - Excellent choice for the serious TA student!
I found the book (Technical Analysis Explained) to be extremely helpful in my study of this fascinating subject. I can understand why Technical Analysis Explained is one of two books on the recommended reading list for the Certified Market Technicians Course. Pring has the knack of making what could be a dull subject interesting. This is the kind of detailed background needed to properly watch both the market and specific stocks. The charting techniques presented give the investor and trader far greater insight into future probable price trends and will significantly increase their rate of return.

Rating: - Definitely Overrated
I have math background and am a beginner in this field. This is the first book I read and gave up after the first three chapters. Presentation is somewhat boring and not self-contained. If you want to learn TA, this is not the book to start with.

Rating: - Hugely overrated
This book is a dud. I don't understand how it has gained such a hyped-up reputation. I use technical analysis in managing a small hedge fund and have found dozens of books on technical analysis that are more useful than this one. This book will bore you into a coma with its fuzzy, unfocused babbling and surprising lack of insight. The bible of technical analysis continues to be John Murphy's "Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets."

Just another compilation of technical analysis. a dismal science explained in a long winding way . the book could have been chopped to 150 pages
