    Description of Using Technical Analysis

    For today's investor a thorough understanding of technical analysis can mean the difference between realizing substantial gains or mediocre returns. For years, professional investors have used technical analysis to produce big profits in the stock market. Now, in Using Technical Analysis, Revised Edition, author Clifford Pistolese shows average investors how they too can reap the benefits of technical analysis. This book explains the rationale for analyzing charts of stock prices, trading volume and moving averages. With this analytical process an investor can detect the buy and sell decisions of insiders and other sophisticated investors.

    Pistolese also provides descriptions of investment strategies which do not work well and cautions the reader against approaches which produce mediocre or negative results. This new edition includes chapters on moving averages and accumulation/distribution analysis. Other key points included in the revised edition of Using Technical Analysis are:

    - Basic and complex chart patterns
    - Identifying long-term trends
    - Self-teaching exercises and a glossary
    - Analyzing trading volume
    - Market timing tactics
