this book really 'fills the gap' by showing them, in easily understandable
and easily implimentable terms, how to do so. I give it my highest
recommendation." - Edward D. Dobson, President, Traders Press, Inc.

Tape Reading and Market Tactics
Humphrey B. Neill / published: June 1984 (Originally Published 1931) / Paperback / Unknown pgs. |
|
| Humphrey Neill, the celebrated sage of Saxton's River, Vermont, has inspired generations of contrarians. His advice to investors: Beware of the crowd, don't be swept up by euphoria or down by despair. When everyone thinks alike, watch out. They're probably wrong. Neill's sharp thinking and homespun aphorisms are no less appropriate today than when he began to formulate the theory of contrary opinion three quarters of a century ago. In fact, Neill's ideas formed the basis for the Contra Fund that Fidelity Management established in 1967 and still manages today. |

The New Science of Technical Analysis
Thomas R. DeMark / published: September 1994 / Hardcover / 264 pgs. |
|
| DeMark has spent 23 years trading stocks and futures and studying markets and is considered a major innovator in the field of technical market analysis. An expert on market timing and chart and trend analysis, he definitively and clearly explains his own methods and the new market indicators he has created and uses. He discounts as being too subjective many of the popular trend analysis techniques and suggests that they only seem successful in retrospect and fail to generate buy and sell signals adequately. His system is purely analytical and mechanical, and DeMark himself admits that it is unconventional and unorthodox. He does suggest, though, that his ideas may be applied universally to any event of a cyclical nature. |

Using
Technical Analysis : A Step-by-step Guide to Understanding and Applying
Stock Market Charting Techniques
Clifford Pistolese / published: March 1994 / Paperback / 253 pgs. |
|
| A Reader's Comments: This is a practical book about Technical Analysis written by an investor with over 30 years of experience who has "been there and done it". The book has a section with exercises. If I had a complaint, it would be that the patterns shown in the example charts are too clear; things are not that crystal clear in real life. Anyone who reads this book should also read "Trading The Plan" by Robert Deel. Both are very practical. |
