I love this book
5.0 out of 5 stars Helping to see the big picture!
Very valuable and honest insight from Mr. McAllen. The book provides a foundation to use technical analysis and its tools to see the bigger picture of trading and investing. I recommends this book to all serious traders and investors. However I must say that you need, as a reader, to have already a good background of technical analysis concepts and tools to get the most benefits of this book. Highly recommended!
5.0 out of 5 stars "Your potential to profit" by Eric Homan
After having read Ted Warren's book, "Having the Stock Market Make Money for You," (which at one point was bought up by the manipulators and then republished, I wanted to share some insight about Fred's book and Ted's. I found that if the 2 people met, they would almost completely agree on everything. I was amazed! We cannot fault Ted, however, because of the time period in which he lived - when there were the 40's, 50's, and 60's stocks (employment was also limited in terms of funding a brokerage account; he also had the problem of not enough regulation in the industry like an untrustworthy broker skipping town). Ted did not have the myriad of choices in investing/speculating that we do now such as - options and options on futures. Ted used what he had available at the time along with his charting skill and became a millionaire. If Ted had the tools we have now, there is no doubt in my mind that he would have made more money, dealt with any downside better, protected profits better, and become a millionaire faster. Ted did buy and sell stocks as well as futures for about 126 % annualized return. With Fred's book, I found it to be an easy read - I zipped through 70 pages at the pool! I also read it on a flight back to my home town and then finished it this week. (Other books written by Fred are shown at the end) Each new chapter kept me at the edge of my seat as I'd learn something new, confirmed something I already knew, or pondered our current market. It is my belief now that we can't just simply learn about greeks, read the latest crop futures report, or know all the inner workings of Apple - we need Charting and Technical Analysis! At a glance, and with some light further analysis a trade plan can be developed with a high probability of success.
4.0 out of 5 stars I found this book very useful as an introduction to technical (chart) analysis for trading
I found this book very useful as an introduction to technical (chart) analysis for trading. I have read other investing books and often find that it just feels like the author is trying to sell you on their particular brand of strategy and/or use the book as a marketing tool for other investment products that they sell. Fred McAllen thankfully does not do that in this book. You really get a sense that the author is trying to cut through a lot of the BS noise that you get from these market pundits and sham educators and just provide a no-nonsense guide to basic chart analysis. Fred does plug is other books a couple of times, but their mention is minimal.It is worth noting that the book primarily uses candlestick chart patterns for analysis. So if you prefer other types of charts for analysis then maybe look elsewhere. Personally, I am a big fan of candlestick charts so I like it. He does also go a bit into using technical indicators such as moving averages. Overall the book does not go deep into other technical indicators. So if you would like to learn about others I would suggest looking elsewhere.Overall I felt that this book was an excellent basic-intermediate introduction to charting. My only disappointment is that it did not go into quite the level of depth that I was hoping for, but it is still a very good resource and I like the author's style.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great info and easy to understand!
Fantastic book! Well written, easy to understand, I inhaled this book and then bought another Fred McAllen book.
5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic primer to technical analysis
If you want to start trading. READ THIS BOOK ! I read a few books before this starting with stocks for dummies or something along those lines, which essentially advocated for fundamental analysis over technical analysis. I started in feb at the 2021 bubble. Buying in at the highes, checking company financials, making sure they are profitable each quarter with increasing profits, making sure my PE ratios were not too high. All that jazz. Tons of hours researching etc. then coming up with strategies to dollar average down.. March came. Lost half my investment. Worked my way back up. May came. Lost another 75 percent. Something had to give.YouTube and fundamental analysis could only take me so far. I had to learn how to recognize the signs for entry and exit. Man has this book changed my world. At the time of writing. I have pinned up the charts, patterns, and rules etc next to my trading station. watching for the set up, waiting for validation, and entering. Today at time of writing, after re-reading a few chapters, I’m 2-0 in the morning, without being stopped out, and up about 300$ Nothing amazing, however before this i was kind of all over the place, with much smaller profits on my wins. Def read this book if your looking for a great into to technical analysis
5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely
Great book. Not even much of a reader but needed some guidance on tech analysis and I flew through this book. Literally buying his other one Trading the Trends” now. Go for it, good read! Very good teacher.
5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to understand
I originally downloaded this book on kindle unlimited so my expectations were not high. I was surprised at how useful I found it. You can get the same information online for free but this book organizes and consolidates it into one very useful reference source. It is well-written by someone who is confident enough to write about technical analysis without making it too difficult for the average investor to understand.I decided I needed a print copy of this book and ordered the spiral bound edition, which I highly recommend. If you really plan to use this book, order the spiral.
Very helpful
Good reading and good information. Recommend
Great book
Injects lots of knowledge into trading skills. Complete package to understand from basic to advanced. My sincere thanks to Fred McAllen.
Przeciętna
Według mnie jest to mocno przeciętna książka. Cała zawarta w niej wiedza jest dostępna w internecie bez większego wysiłku w szukaniu jej. Z pewnością książka pomoże totalnym żółtodziobom, ale nie jest to wiedza, która spowoduje, że zaczniesz zarabiać na rynku.
Good tips for beginners
I really recommended the book for begginers, it will help you with some usefull tips. I miss a better pictures, they are dark. That's why a 4 star
