Item description from seller

Scarce first edition. A concise technical analysis guide aimed at bridging the gap between professional stockbrokers and individual investors. Overall Condition: Near Fine/VG BOOK INFO Published in 1970 by D. H. Mark Publishing Company in Braintree, Massachusetts. First edition, first printing. In the original teal cloth-covered boards with black lettering. With the original white dust jacket with teal and black lettering and design work, including light teal graph paper gridlines. Octavo, 8 3/4" x 5 11/16". Collated and complete: x, 131, [1, blank] pp. Over 100 within text illustrations of charts, graphs, figures and tables. ABOUT THE WORK The book approaches the selection of securities through two main methods: (1) Fundamental or intrinsic value analysis - evaluating a company's underlying worth based on earnings, assets, and other financial metrics. (2) Technical analysis - interpreting stock market price movements and trading volume to predict future price behavior . Lerro and Swayne emphasize that technical analysis is often underdeveloped in standard investment texts, creating a disparity in tools between those trained in brokerage firms and self-directed investors. This book is designed to fill that gap by providing a focused, practical introduction to modern technical charting and market pattern recognition. Various topics are delved into, including bar charting procedures and how to read trends, bends, and angles; identification of support and resistance levels, trendlines, and price formations such as flags, pennants, and head-and-shoulders patterns; use of moving averages and volume analysis to confirm signals; and application of Dow Theory and other chartist principles to interpret market behavior. CONDITION REPORT NF/VG The book is NEAR FINE. Square spine, firm hinges and joints, very tight text block, appears unread. Pages are beautifully clean and bright white. One partially erased pencil mark on FFEP. Negligible rubbing. Foxing to boards, page edges and endpapers else FINE. The dust jacket is VERY GOOD. Foxing throughout dust jacket, verso and recto.
