How charts can help you in the stock market
Jiler does an excellent job of succinctly describing chart patterns. He provides numerous examples as well as detailing the pattern, its reliability and what the pattern means in regards to how trends should react once the pattern is completed. This book is very useful and I can see me reading it over and over again. This book belongs in every investor's library. I very highly recommend this book to any serious investor who wishes to improve his winning percentage through the use of stock charts.

It is my opinion that William Jiler does a great job explaining technical analysis. Pattern explainations are backed by wonderful chart illustrations. Not only is this book a great tool for understanding technical patterns but Jiler explains why these patterns form. I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in technical analysis.

This book is really a classic. It is a classic because it is so good. It doesn't matter that it was written in the sixties; human nature, fear and greed as reflected in stock prices, is the same now as it was then.This is a good book with ideas clearly spelled out and illustrated. It is a great introduction to charting. In my opinion, more modern authors overly complicate charts. It's really about how many buyers versus sellers there are now and in the recent pass.As will all technical analysis, it is often better in hindsight. But that is like driving using your rear view mirror. By the time you are sure, it is often too late. In both cases, you may end up in a crash.It is very difficult in the heat of trading to have any idea where the market will go. Still, there are some things that help you, such as identifying trends and areas of support and resistance. And I like a few indicators such as MACD and stochastics, but they help time a trade if it continues in the same trend. It is still a crap shoot as to what direction the market will take and change the trend.

If the current round of corporate accounting fraud hasn't awakened you up to the usefulness of charting, maybe this book will. After having tried a pure fundamental analysis approach in my investing for years, someone finally convinced me to look at charts, which I considered to be the same level as reading tea leaves -- au contraire. After spening the past two years studying technical analysis, I am happy to report that this is one of the better books on the subject, and inexpensive, too. This book, along with websites like TradingMarkets.com, will give you a fantastic basis in technical analysis.

I have read some TA articles and books before.. but many of them were explaining what would happen when a particular pattern is formed and for me, it was like memorising those patterns. But this book aims to imbibe the basics onto you.. the author gives you the reasons for the expected results eg.. he explained the resistance concept by asking.. how often did you bought a stock, saw that drop down and eagerly waited for the stock to regain the price at which you bought it, so that you can sell the stock with no loss on your part !! I really thought that this was simple logical teaching..The 200 dma behaviour explanations are great !Highly recommendedNB:Given the cost of this, its even more appealing to buy this book
