Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For generations, technical market analysts have relied on the Wyckoff method for understanding price/volume interactions–a breakthrough technique created by Richard D. Wyckoff, one of the most influential traders in stock market history. More recently, many technical analysts have also applied the Lowry Analysis, an exceptionally powerful approach to understanding the forces of supply and demand that are the starting point for all macro-analysis. ¿ Now, for the first time, two leaders at Lowry Research discuss how to combine these methods. Drawing on more than 45 years of experience as technical analysts, Richard A. Dickson and Tracy Knudsen introduce a uniquely powerful, objective, and quantifiable approach to applying traditional price/volume analysis. By understanding their techniques, investors can gain insights unavailable through other technical methodologies, and uncover subtle indications of emerging trend shifts before other methods can reveal them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard W. Schabacker's great work, Technical Analysis and Stock Market Profits, is a worthy addition to any technical analyst's personal library or any market library.

Originally devised as a practical course for investors, it is as alive, vital and instructional today as the day it was written. It paved the way for Robert Edwards and John Magee's best-selling Technical Analysis of Stock Trends - a debt which is acknowledged in their foreword: 'Part One is based in large part on the pioneer researches and writings of the late Richard Schabacker.'Schabacker presents technical analysis as a totally organized subject and comprehensively lays out the various important patterns, formations, trends, support and resistance areas, and associated supporting technical detail. He presents factors that can be confidently relied on, and gives equal attention to the blemishes and weaknesses that can upset the best of analytical forecasts: Factors which investors would do well to absorb and apply when undertaking the fascinating game of price, time and volume analysis.

Book excerpt: Trading Time - a double meaning, referring to the allocation of the time to trade, and also understanding the critical information regarding where you are in time when a trade is placed. This facet of time has many characteristics: - The timeframe of the chart that was used?- How critical is the immediate price action directly after the trade is placed?- At what point in time is the trade within the trend, or are we at the end of the trend?- How strong is the trend, based on the time it has existed?- What is the risk and expectation in relationship to time?- What is the dominant and correct time frame to be trading?Obtaining a true measure of expectation in any one period of time is critical to improving the chances of success. Fear and greed can be removed from the equation, providing a framework for the good trader and an understanding of risk and expectation to the new one. This book looks at the characteristics of time in detail, using propriety studies that analyse time through referencing each part of the day to its previous behaviour at similar periods previously. This creates a true measure of momentum, and allows for fixed reference points that understand normal and unusual behaviour in multiple time frames at the same time. This means the trader no longer has to wait for the current bar to finish before he can implement trades, as many of the studies reference the opening price, and not the close, unlike many established momentum-based concepts.New studies such as Oasis Volatility Time Bands, Range Deviation Pivots, Time Average Bands and Trade Flow provide short-term day trading opportunities, giving exact support and resistances as low as the next 10 minutes. These can thenbe connected and quantified with original methods and concepts using Steidlmayer's Market Profile.The secon

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Noted technical analyst John Person outlines a comprehensive method to pinpointing today's best trading opportunities The economy and stock market are heavily influenced by seasonal factors. For example, a strong holiday buying season tends to be bullish for retail stocks or rising energy costs hurt airline profitability. Awareness of seasonal trends in both the economy and stock market can put you in a better position to profit from sectors and stocks that are likely to outperform the overall market. And technical tools can then be used to confirm emerging trends and time entries into these stocks and sectors. Mastering the Stock Market provides authoritative insights into a method for trading stocks based on seasonal trends, sector analysis, and market timing. Taking a top-down approach, the book explains how seasonal supply/demand forces impact commodities and different sectors of the stock market. After learning how to identify stock market sectors and commodity ETFs that are ripe for a big move, you'll quickly discover how to use technical analysis to gauge the strength of the sector or commodity and then identify the strongest stocks and ETFs to trade. Along the way, you'll also learn how to use the author's own indicators, Persons Pivots, to identify support/resistance areas and pinpoint optimal entry and exit points. Outlines a proven technical approach for trading stocks based on seasonal trends, sector analysis, and market timing Breaks new ground in comparative relative strength, trading volume, breadth indicators, and utilizing pivot analysis in conjunction with options expiration days to identify trading opportunities Written by noted technical analyst John L. Person To successfully trade today's markets you need to use a proven approach and have the discipline to effectively implement it. Mastering the Stock Market has what you need to achieve these goals and capture consistent profits along the way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Note: This is the 2nd edition, in color, updated in April, 2021. Please check the cover for the subtitle of Second Edition before placing an order. If you prefer a cheaper black and white version, please expand "See all formats and editions" to find it. Financial markets are essentially time-series data driven events consisting of valleys, peaks, and in-betweens of ups and downs. For more than a century, many pioneers had attempted to come up with various theoretical models to facilitate forecasting and timing market moves. For example, as early as in 1902, or 119 years ago, S. A. Nelson, a friend of Charles H. Dow, attempted to explain Dow's methods in his book titled The A B C of Stock Speculation, which became later known as "the Dow Theory." 20 years later in 1922, William Peter Hamilton carried on and wrote the book The Stock Market Barometer, which explained the Dow Theory in more detail. More recently in the last few decades, the advent of advanced computing technologies helped create numerous technical indicators, such as Relative Strength Index (RSI) by J. Welles Wilder (1978), Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) by Gerald Appel (2005), Stochastic Oscillator (SO) by George Lane (2007), and Bollinger Bands (BB) by John Bollinger (2002), etc. Those powerful theories and indicators have been heavily studied and well-known in the financial circle. However, they are empirical and lack quantitative verifications out of solid backtest results. This book helps fill these vacancies. This text attempts to help explore how one can forecast and time markets more quantitatively. For this purpose, the author developed a model-based system, named AlphaCovaria, to help demonstrate how to use various simplest, readily available technical indicators to forecast and time markets approximately while eliminating subjective speculations at the same time. Centered on various math models, the author's AlphaCovaria system has three main components: an AlphaCurve program for charting, a BTDriver program for running all backtests, and an AlphaCovaria driver for generating buy/sell signals based on symbol profiles learned through backtests. This kind of formula-driven approach is more promising for building more high-performance strategies. The text is made concise and precise of about 100 pages only, as a working method does not need to be wordy. Math models, data and charts can help explain more effectively and convincingly. Also, inspired by those classical models, the author came up with a new indicator named simple cascading indicator (sci), which beat all those classical models in most cases, based on the backtest results with 29 carefully selected symbols and past 15 years' price data. This 2nd edition of the book also shared my live trading experience using real money in my Fidelity and eTrade accounts with my AlphaCovaria system. Such data can be found nowhere else.

Book excerpt: Overview : "A book on Technical Analysis written for the Investor Yes, it is possible to use technical analysis for investing, not just trading! Technical analysis has always been seen as a tool for short-term trading rather than investing. Through this book, the author will share with investors an original approach to technically define the trend for the various time frames - Daily, Weekly, Monthly and so on. The book will reveal the consistent relationship between the time frames. It explains which time frame dictates a market's behavior and shows how to invest better with the knowledge of the larger time frames. The book's second innovation is to help investors integrate technical trend, timing and price indicators for market entry and exit. This approach "integrates" signals from various technical tools rather than rely on signals from a single indicator, whether it be timing or price for entry and exit. This integrated approach has been effectively used by the author for investing for many years. Learn : • Time tested techniques to define a market's trend • To integrate trend, timing and time indicators for optimal market entry and exit in trending and non-trending market environments • About the two-way and three-way relationships between monthly, weekly and daily time frames • How to invest better with the knowledge of the relationship of multiple time frames of markets About the author BC Low (CMT) has been a teacher-cum-practitioner in Technical Analysis since the 1980s.

Download or read book Technical Markets Indicators written by Richard J. Bauer and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1998-11-26 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of technical market indicators has long been a controversial subject, highly regarded by some and treated with great skepticism by others. Yet, the number of indicators-and the number of individual investors and finance professionals using them-continues to grow. Now, more than ever, there is an urgent need for objective testing to determine the validity of these indicators. Technical Market Indicators is a unique study of the performance of many of the most widely used technical analysis indicators. The authors explore in an unbiased, rigorous manner whether these indicators consistently perform well or fail to do the job. They explain which indicators work best and why, providing a clear picture of what the investor is likely to experience when using technical analysis. Unlike other books on the subject, Technical Market Indicators provides a comprehensive testing of indicators that uses a large sample of stocks over a twelve-year time period, encompassing varying market conditions. Instead of using the traditional technical analysis charts, this detailed analysis takes a different approach, calculating numbers based on various relationships and letting the numbers dictate the decisions. This allows the investor to use technical methods without ever consulting a chart. From an objective standpoint, the authors address both the pro and con arguments of using technical analysis and attempt to shed additional light onto the controversy through their systematic testing. They also alert the investor to the many different issues that must be addressed when using technical indicators, including performance measurement criteria, consistency of results, combining indicators, portfolio considerations, and leveraging. This indispensable resource features: * Comprehensive testing of sixty different technical indicators, fully described, including Trading Band Crossover, Relative Strength Peaks, Random Walk Breakout, Candle Belt Hold, and Volume Trend * An explanation of the underlying concepts behind the indicators and their methods of calculation * In-depth results of tests on each individual indicator, with over 250 pages of detailed tables * An examination of trading rules that combine two or more indicators and a report of a sampling of the best combinations * An annotated bibliography. For those new to technical analysis or for the experienced analyst looking for some fresh angles on the subject, this one-of-a-kind resource is the only one you'll need to navigate the increasingly complex maze of technical market indicators. Can technical analysis be used as an effective tool to enhance investment performance? This question is currently on the minds of many investors and traders. The answer can be found in this invaluable, comprehensive resource, which provides a detailed analysis of the most commonly used indicators, explaining in detail which indicators seem to work best, why, under what conditions, and with which kinds of financial instruments. "Do technical market indicators provide useful information to the stock trader or is it impossible to beat a buy and hold strategy? Bauer and Dahlquist tackle this controversy by rigorously testing 60 indicators on 878 stocks over a 12-year period. Their explanations of the indicators, the testing process, and the results are clear and concise. The 12 major conclusions based on this extensive research will provide the reader with plenty of opportunities to follow Bauer and Dahlquist's final advice: 'Keep learning and keep thinking. '" - Tom Bierovic Manager, System Trading & Development Education Omega Research, Inc. "Who says a technician has to use charts? Here is a book that sidesteps traditional technical analysis and describes how tabular data can be more informative." - Ralph Acampora Managing Director Prudential Securities.
