Day trading needs discipline and planning which I don't have. As a result end up losing. Books can give you tool but not the character.

Normalde teknik analiz konusunda oldukça skeptiktim. Bir varlığın geçmiş fiyat hareketlerine bakıp gelecekte nasıl hareket edebileceğine dair çıkarım yapmanın mümkünlüğü hakkında şüphelerim vardı. Bu şüpheciliğimde ana motivasyonunu tam olarak anlayamadığım bir sürü çizelge formasyonu ve bu formasyonları çizen/geliştiren insanların sistemlerinin başarısının test edilebilirliği konusundaki kafa karışıklığımın da etkisi vardı. Ancak sonradan fark ettiğim üzere bu doğrudan "teknik analiz" denilen şeyin kendisinden ziyade "teknik analiz" ile uğraştığını iddia eden insanları ilgilendiren bir sorundu. Zamanla fiyat hareketlerinin sistematik bir şekilde incelenmesinin ilgili varlığı alıp satan insanların psikolojisi açısından bilgi sağlayabileceğini fark etmem ve insanların psikolojisini anlamanın da genel olarak daha iyi bir yatırımcı olmayı sağlayabileceğini görmemden ötürü teknik analize daha olumlu bakmaya başladım.

Bu benim okuduğum ilk teknik analiz kitabıydı ve kitabın benim gibi teknik analize yeni giriş yapanlar için oldukça iyi olduğunu düşünüyorum. Yazar kendisini bir trend trader olarak değerlendiriyor ve kitaptaki çoğu stratejiyi ve öneriyi vs. de bu bağlamda inceliyor. Kitap temel olarak herhangi bir hissede farklı zaman dilimlerindeki grafikleri değerlendirerek nasıl strateji oluşturabileceğimiz hakkında, ancak bununla sınırlı kalmayıp bir sürü konuya da değiniyor: Trading'de duyguların işlevi, fiyat hareketi ve arz/talep arasındaki ilişki, market fazlarının analizi, olası destek/direnç noktalar��nın belirlenmesi, trendlerin karakteristik özellikleri, hacimden nasıl yararlanabileceğimiz, hareketli ortalamaların trend analizinde kullanılması, farklı zaman dilimlerine bağlı olarak trade planı oluşturmak, risk yönetimi ve bu tür bir sürü ince detaya yer verilmiş kitapta.

No matter if you are bullish or bearish on the markets, if you are a value manager or growth, if you focus on fundamentals or quantitative signals, price is still the most important piece of financial market information. Price is where the rubber hits the road. Technical analysis is the study of price signals. Many investors it as voodoo, but I have always valued the discipline. I find it a useful technique to answer, “what is the market telling me?” We can get so caught up in our views of the market that we do not take enough time to answer this important question.

My knowledge of the discipline has been haphazard, picking up little pieces of information here or there. I recently read Brian Shannon’s book because I wanted to brush up on my execution skills. I am never going to be a technical trader, but I believe that there are technical techniques that allow investors to risk manage their exposure more effectively. The proof is in the pudding but I found the book powerful because I think it will assist me in achieving this goal.

Shannon provides a clear and simple framework through which to assess financial markets and make risk-adjusted investment decisions. I think it has already caused me to be more patient and observational. I know that these are powerful skills in all facets of our lives. Philosophical platitudes like this resonate with me. I view financial markets as the ultimate teacher. Just like in life, we can never be entirely correct in financial markets, but we have to make risk-adjusted decisions given the information available, learn from the feedback, adjust our principles and wake up tomorrow to fight another day as better versions of ourselves.

Book is precise. Since it's from Brian Shannon who is largely credited for popularising Anchored-VWAP; I was hoping to see some of it. There isn't any reference, has a small overview on VWAP.

I now have a pretty good understanding of Moving Averages. I did have some really useful takeaways which we know but don't seem to pay much attention. All in all Brian has done a good job explaining his thinking process and thoughts on technical analysis.

I definitely recommend this book. I hope to see more from Brian.

One of the few books I will recommend to wannabe traders is Brian Shannon's. The book does an excellent job of laying out the fundamentals of trading emotion, why many timeframes matter, why vwap counts, what short selling is (and how to identify if a short squeeze is imminent), and swing trading entry and exit rules. This book is written in a straightforward manner that gets right to the point without getting bogged down in technical jargon. It's all good. For a beginning trader, this book comes highly recommended. Absolutely. Any serious prospective trader should read this book.

Not really for intermediate to advanced traders. I saw the hefty price tag ($76) and thought I’d learn something new but this book has chapters on market/limit orders, support resistance etc. Things that a trader who’s been in the market for 6 months to a year has already learned somewhere else like YouTube. Maybe this was worth it’s price back in 2008 when it was published but definitely not in 2022.

A lot of solid, time-honored trading fundamentals and open-ended enough for a newer trader to understand that there are no absolutes, only adjustments. Only didn't give it 5 stars because SOME of the info is slightly dated and I am looking forward to Brian Shannon's new book as well as the Anchored VWAP indicator.

It is a book for beginner traders. It gives you an overall understanding and techniques that traders should have to be profitable. It is a good initiation book to the world of stock trading. Having the basics of trading is crucial and this books gives you that.

Too expensive for what it is. " The Trading Code " which is 1/4 of its price is much more intensive and more interesting to learn from. Meh

It is a must read for traders. We already know most of them yet reading them all at once in single book, with missing pieces is amazing.

Concepts explained easily. Anyone can pick a stock or trade. The hard part is knowing when to cut and how far to ride a winner. The second half of this book covered that well.

Too many unnecessary and inappropriate analogs up to now. I couldn't see similarities between the analog and the stock market. Those only messes up my understanding. Good book otherwise.

One of the better trading books I've read. You will understand how different market participants think and act and how they move the markets. You will understand how to position yourself, where to put stop loss and what trades to take and when.

I would read this as a companion book to the broader classic books on trading from Minervini and O'Neil.

Highly recommend this book.
