Description of The Investor's Guide to Charting |
Charting is a complex and sometimes derided world, yet it commands an enormous following. A knowledge of the subject is useful for every investor. This fully revised and updated edition of Alistair Blair's Guide to Charting will bring you up to speed quickly and entertainingly.
The Investors Chronicle Guide to Charting is packed with purpose-drawn charts and worked examples and explains in detail how charting theories work. Written with the private investor's viewpoint in mind, the book will give you all that you need to start practising technical analysis. Learn what charts can and cannot show you, how and when to use them, and when to take them with a pinch of salt. Alistair Blair will provoke you into some serious thinking.
