by Constance Brown

THE TECHNICAL ANALYSIS CLASSIC―REVISED AND UPDATED TO HELP YOU SUCCEED, EVEN DURING TIMES OF EXTREME VOLATILITY “This book contains the most advanced methodology I’ve ever seen.”
―GEORGE C. LANE, from the Foreword Required reading for certification in the Chartered Market Technician (CMT) program Over a decade ago, when this groundbreaking guide was first published, the world of technical analysis had experienced vast change. Seemingly overnight, technological advances had utterly transformed the way market analysts performed their jobs. A growing army of professional technical traders, armed with global plug-and-play software, needed to improve their skills of price projection, timing, and risk management to weather the increasing market ranges and volatility. Technical Analysis for the Trading Professional helped them achieve it. The word spread that this practical guide provided radical new uses and combinations of indicators and formulas―and it became an instant classic. By comparison, today’s markets make those of 1999 look simple―so Technical Analysis for the Trading Professional has been expanded to reflect the author’s experiences over the past decade to bring you fully up to date.

Mostly marketing of herself - no real goodies. She claims to have developed a superior trading system, but never reveals all the parameters she uses in this system. A Waste of time. Two starts are a generous rating - especially considering the Price of the book

Constance Brown's Composite Indicator is the best indicator I've found out there, and the only one I use (in conjunction with the RSI, looking for divergences). Though she doesn't give the specs in the book, you can find it elsewhere online...buy it, use it, profit, case closed. Made my money back off the book in one trade, and there will be many more. The discussion of the Composite alone makes the book worth its weight.

This was an ok book. Could have been more informative. But nonetheless, a good book.
