Nice and Easy Language !! And Can be used as the first book by someone who wants to learn Technical Analysis of Stocks/Commodities !!!

[Abhishek Shekhar]

Charting is simplified to get basic idea, but i was looking for more details especially on options. Book is good for beginners. And can certainly help long term and short term traders equally. The examples for each chart pattern are good for learning and application.

if you are beginner and inclined towards learning the basic and useful price patterns forming in the stocks, this might be it. take the notes of the important patterns and also track down it with your own list and do side by side exercise.

price action made simplified in this book and got to know about some of the new patterns as well. happy trading. light read and up to the point.

[Mayank Mishra]

This is a small read, around fifty pages. I'm not sure who the book is targetted at. But if you are a person who started reading trading books or courses and didn't complete,you can pick this up and finish it in a couple of hours and get a good snapshot about what charting and technical analysis of the market entails

[Shajan]

Good book for beginners.. Explaining simple chart patterns without jargons.. I liked it..

[Maria del Pilar]

A lot of studying time with charts, learning from each chart and studying their differences. This kind of book is a manual, reference book, therefore neverending.

[Wayne]

This is the quickest read you'll find on the subject and as a result, it doesn't really give you much. There's a total of 18 chapters that spend a page or two on each subject.

Essentially this is a book that is all about giving you an idea of what topics exist and advertising the more extensive books that the author has written towards the end. It's nothing more than a glorified sales pitch for his other works.

Easy read

[Murilo Spino]

Good for beginers, but if you are an advanced trader, it will not help you much.
