  • Adds a New Dimension to your Investment Arsenal.

    This book has made a significant change in how I invest. It's primary advantage is that it gives you a record keeping method that helps you to analyze and learn how to improve your ability to make investments. You analyze both your Winners and Losers. It utilizes the Technical Analysis method of chart reading and the interpretation of chart patterns. He provides succinct but thorough descriptions of using indicators and oscillators, so in that respect it is like other TA books. The record keeping discussions makes it a clear winner. I recommend it as a excellent addition to your investing library!
