A well researched book with some useful statistics for many candle patterns. Problem is identifying all of them and concatenating many candles within short distance from one another and trying to infere something. Also, candle recognition should be a bit more explained mathematically, instead of giving a general idea, so it should be better to backtest them.

This is a much needed book in the technical analysis arena, I'm so glad I ran across it and that the author took the time to put it together.
