Technicians only?

Posted at: 2014-12-05 
You've probably already studied Dow Theory, but that's the basics.

Elliot Wave Theory is helpful in defining waves of patterns, as long as you don't try to "predict" anything. Especially helpful when you try to program your newly found trading system.

But Technical Analysis is just a tool, like the computer. It doesn't "predict" anything either. Much of T/A is random noise. Deciphering the significant from the chaff is difficult.

What most traders are trying to do is become consistent. Even if you're wrong half of the time, keeping your losers small with good money management techniques and letting your winners run can be profitable. Risk is the focus first, but good trading strategy is the aim and application, not some indicator. Incorporated into the indicator and rules are good strategies. Developing a rule-based system for trading

The number one reason traders fail? No trade plan. Read this book if you want to get serious about trading helps you become consistent.

Justin Mamis' The Nature of Risk: Stock Market Survival and the Meaning of Life. I believe this book to be foundational to new traders because it discusses, what else?, the nature of risk in the market.

I'm making good profit with penny stock. Check here http://trade-pennystock.checkhere.info

Many new investors are lured to the appeal of a penny stock due to the low price and potential for rapid growth which may be as high as several hundred percent in a few days. Similarly, severe loss can occur and many penny stocks lose all of their value in the long term. Accordingly, the SEC warns that penny stocks are high risk investments and new investors should be aware of the risks involved but you can even make very big money. These risks include limited liquidity, lack of financial reporting, and fraud. A penny stock is a common stock that trades for less than $5 a share. While penny stocks generally are quoted over-the-counter, such as on the OTC Bulletin Board or in the Pink Sheets, they may also trade on securities exchanges, including foreign securities exchanges. In addition, penny stocks include the securities of certain private companies with no active trading market. Although a penny stock is said to be "thinly traded," share volumes traded daily can be in the hundreds of millions for a sub-penny stock. Legitimate information on penny stock companies can be difficult to find and a stock can be easily manipulated.

"How to win at blackjack" by I B da Haus "The ultimate instruction book for suckers and losers" - Las Vegas Gazette

If you buy low and sell high, that means someone else has to buy high, and hope someone will buy at an even higher price from him. Sounds like a con to me.

I'm looking for more books on technical analysis. So far I've read the "Way of the turtles", "The winning edge", "Stock investing for dummies", "The new science of technical analysis", "Fire your stock analyst", "The new Market Wizards", "How to make money in stocks, William Oneal", "Technical analysis, Kirkpatrick 2nd edition", "Trade like an Oneal Disciple", "The great super cycle", "The disciplined trader, developing winning attitudes". "The definitive guide to point and figure charting"

Ive read a good amount but not enough and now Im purely interested in technical analysis. Are there any books you would consider for advanced technicians? Also right now Im half way through the point and figure book and can already tell I want to further study this charting method. Do you have any recommendations for any books on P+F charting?

Also please write a brief description of the book you post.
