Synopsis

Imagine that you speak only Mandarin and you want to read Shakespeare.

Somebody has to translate it into your language. This book will present technical analysis to you in your language and in the order that makes sense to you.

Use the first section to get an overall understanding of what technical analysis is all about. Then, taking one chapter at time, see how it applies to what you are already doing. All the concepts presented in the book can be used to supplement your own original analysis.

Technical Analysis: Plain & Simple

will enable all investors to use technical analysis wisely, by fully understanding the theories, terms, risks and successful application.

If technical analysis is so simple, why isn’t everyone doing it?

The simple answer is that most technical terms used in charting confuse rather than enlighten investors. This book enables everyone to use technical analysis; providing a full understanding of the theories, terms, risks and successful application.

Technical analysis looks at actual trades where bulls and bears have put their money where their collective mouths are. There is no revision of data, no ambiguity and no mystical divining of the future. All market and stock selection is based on current, not past, price performance, the predictable behaviour of market participants and the dynamics between markets over time.

Use Technical Analysis: Plain and Simple to learn how to enhance your returns, avoid bad trades and think in term of probabilities.
