Customer Reviews of The Secret Code of Japanese Candlesticks- Unfortunately, the content of the book is not what it suggest and is a more a description of an early form of Elliot Wave Theory. There is very little way in the way candlestick analysis, and illustrations/diagrams/examples of the methods discussed are rather thin.

- I agree with S.W on the "thinness" of this book but that's actually one of the things I enjoyed about it. If you like the fat, heavy and dense books, stay away from this one; I agree. You should fly through this book in a few hours... If you can borrow it for a day, you got it. If you just like the way your bookshelf makes you look, buy something else...About Elliot Wave? Don't know... Of course they are both schools of technical analysis but, to me at least, that's more like fractal analysis taken out of context... the fact that some graphs used to explain it look similar does not imply similar techniques.I'm not so found of technical methods in general, but I have to agree that it is a crucial tool to add to a bigger trading machinery. Interesting thing about these methods is that they actually work NATURALLY as long as there's not too many people using them...
