very good!¤ 2) Paperback Book Technical Analysis of Stock Trends by BN Publishing. I bought the book because I think it is of the latest edition (edition 9?). But obviously, it is not, although it is printed in 2008.
Amazon should specify the edition of the book!¤ 3) Paperback Book Technical Analysis of Stock Trends by BN Publishing. This book is the Bible of Technical analysis.
Technical analysis is a financial markets technique that claims the ability to forecast the future direction of security prices through the study of past market data, primarily price and volume.
In its purest form, technical analysis considers only the actual price and volume behavior of the market or instrument, on the assumption that price and volume are the two most relevant factors in determining the future direction and behavior of a particular stock or market.
Technical analysts may employ models and trading rules based, for example, on price and volume transformations, such as the relative strength index, moving averages, regressions, inter-market and intra-market price correlations, cycles or, classically, through recognition of chart patterns.
Technical analysis is widely used among traders and financial professionals, but is considered in academia to be pseudoscience.Academics such as Eugene Fama say the evidence for technical analysis is sparse and is inconsistent with the weak form of the generally-accepted efficient market hypothesis.
Economist Burton Malkiel argues, "Technical analysis is an anathema to the academic world." He further argues that under the weak form of the efficient market hypothesis, "...you cannot predict future stock prices from past stock prices."
However, there are also many stock traders who proclaim technical analysis not as a science for predicting the future but instead as a valuable tool to identify favorable trading opportunities and trends. The assumption is that all of the fundamental information and current market opinions are already reflected in the current price and when viewed in conjunction with past prices often reveals recurring price and volume patterns that provide clues to potential future price movement.
In the foreign exchange markets, its use may be more widespread than fundamental analysis. While some isolated studies have indicated that technical trading rules might lead to consistent returns in the period prior to 1987, most academic work has focused on the nature of the anomalous position of the foreign exchange market.
It is speculated that this anomaly is due to central bank intervention.¤ 4) Paperback Book Technical Analysis of Stock Trends by BN Publishing. The book is the reprint of a old edition date back 1948 with some little update up to 1963. The Amazon´s Search-Inside(TM) refer to another update version of the book (9 ed.). The book´s style and content is very old, the charts are hand-made and frankly speaking now it´s possible to do much better and the calculation of indicators now can be exact. If you are interested to the prehistory of technical analysis a would suggest "Welles Wilder - New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems". Modern and better books are those of Achelis and Colby.¤ 5) Paperback Book Technical Analysis of Stock Trends by BN Publishing. adapt to study the general and global laws of techinal analysis; no for fanatical man, but for who want to create a persoanl knowledge about this discipline¤ 6) Paperback Book Technical Analysis of Stock Trends by BN Publishing.
