A gold mine of new information
I've been a trader for about ten years and have spent thousands of dollars on trading books - most of which have proven to have little or no useful content. That's certainly not the case with this book of Connie Brown's which provides alot of new thinking about indicators/oscillators and how we view and actually use them. More importantly the reader is challenged to think about what their favorite indicator is actually telling them at any point in time. Her discussion of the information a plain vanilla 14 period RSI can actually divulge is, in itself, well worth the price. The work on price projection and targets is extremely useful and has had a major positive impact on my trading. As an added bonus, the author shares some new indicators of her own creation and provides the reader with the "easy language" code for TradeStation. There's an awful lot of information in this book and it does take some time to digest. I've found something new and worthwhile every time I pick it up. You will definitely not find a re-hash of the same old stuff. Highly recommended!

Excellent contribution to subject of technical analysis
Technical Analysis for the Trading Professional is a book that I keep close at hand when I am preparing to trade. It's allowed me to look at the use and application of all indicators: oscillators, moving averages, trendlines etc., in entirely new ways. Although the book is advertised as being for the "Trading Profesional" the material is presented in such a thorough way that any serious student will gain much useful knowledge from the pages. If you are a follower of Elliott, Gann or Fibonacci analysis the information provided is a new slant on practical and very useful application of those theories. Its one of the books in my financial library that I recommend as an absolute "must read".

A Treasure for Traders
Hands down, this is my best trading literature VALUE. Just one chapter supported a significant increase in my trading.Its deep, but so was the first 2 calculus courses in engineering school. If its too advanced for you now, better buy it while its still available. The better trading books seem to go out of print quickly (?).
Constance reveals more of her successful trading than most authors that show how to trade from the middle of the chart. I also appreciate the most robust trading software ever made was used with coding examples, TS2000i.
Thanks Connie!
