Reviews

[Vasco]

Very dense, material-wise. Should re-read to know all the patterns that are not obvious to me (wedges, etc etc.)

[Cliff Stevens]

Seems very well researched and thought out, with examples, and plenty of charts. But sample sizes for discussion of the performance of the chart patterns discussed are pretty small IMHO and I didn't enjoy the goofy dialogue between the fictional mentor/mentee which I appreciate was an attempt at lightening up the dryness of the material, but for me, was just a distraction. I WILL be going back to this as a reference book though because of the awesome catalog of chart patterns in the back! Worthy skim and recurring reference:-)
