GETTING STARTED IN CHART PATTERNS 2ND EDITION

Chart pattern analysis is not only one of the most important investing tools, but also one of the most popular. Filled with expert insights and practical advice from one of the best in the business, Getting Started in Chart Patterns, Second Edition helps new and seasoned traders alike profit by tracking and identifying specific chart patterns.

Substantially revised and expanded, this new edition of the popular guide now includes additional charts for ETFs and mutual funds. It introduces more than 40 key chart formations, as well as trading tactics that can be used in conjunction with them. It supplies actual trades (with dollar amounts), along with author Thomas Bulkowski's frank discussion of how trading behavior can affect the bottom line. Interwoven throughout the technical presentations are fascinating anecdotes drawn from the author's quarter-century as a professional trader that vividly demonstrate how one of the best in the business leverages the power of chart patterns.

Praise for the first edition of Getting Started in Chart Patterns

"When it comes to chart reading, Thomas Bulkowski can be categorized as a sui generis [constituting a class alone]. Combining objective analysis with a fictional element has resulted in a highly entertaining read, one that any trader will benefit from."
—JAYANTHI GOPALAKRISHAN, Editor of Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities magazine

"Nobody explains the nuts and bolts of how—exactly—to use chart patterns to make real money in trading like Tom Bulkowski. I always do better in my own trading after reading a Bulkowski book. This is the practical, down-to-earth guidance you have been looking for in books on technical analysis. Bulkowski doesn't give you platitudes—he gives you live examples. Even better, he admits that patterns don't always deliver what we expect and he quantifies both success and failure rates for the top moneymaking patterns. Nobody writes about chart work better than Bulkowski."
—BARBARA ROCKEFELLER, independent trader and advisor (www.rts-forex.com); author of Technical Analysis For Dummies

"In Getting Started in Chart Patterns, Bulkowski offers easy-to-apply advice for looking at charts and making them work more effectively for you in your trading. It is his passion; it probably also will become yours after reading this book. A must for budding technicians!"
—GAIL OSTEN, Executive Editor of Stocks, Futures and Options (SFO) magazine

    Very clear explanation of how to read a candlestick chart. This is about how to read a candlestick rather than a list of promising chart patterns. Also contains guidance about successfully avoiding what would be considered positive indications but with wrong timing that will more often than not lead to a loss. Contains sanguin advice about trying to identify "chart patterns" that rings true. Very refreshing advice from an actual trader.

    5.0 out of 5 stars I highly recommend this book to all levels of traders
    Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2015
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    I am not a seasoned stock trader; however, I have read many books on techincal analysis, have taken lessons from pros, attended many webinars, and have been studying the technical aspects of the market for about 2 years. This book covers it all and has brought confidence to my trading. I highly recommend this book to all levels of traders, there's a lot of simple principles of trading you already know, such as double top, support, resistance, etc. but there are a few gems you can still take away from reading this.

    I am excited to start reading Mr. Bulkowski's swing trading book next.

    I think this should be titled, advanced chart patterns. There is a lot of detail in this book and it is hard to pull the value out of all the Phd level statistical chart analysis. I don't think you need to understand chart theory in order to make use of charts. I want techniques not a course in statistics. Tell me how to apply what you just talked about to making money. I think the information could be distilled into a much simpler approach for the layman. I also bought Fred McAllen's book " Charting and Technical Analysis" and I think his book is a much better beginner book.

    Logo de inicio é possível ler 2 ou 3 capítulos para dar um up no conhecimento básico. O autor trabalha com exemplos reais e dispõe figuras dos gráficos em análise. As análises são bem detalhadas e o autor deixa uma coleção de amostras com percentual de sucesso ou fracasso baseado em determinada configuração/situação de compra ou venda. Pra quem já iniciou e não consegue parar de girar, recomendo. Ah, o livro é ecologicamente correto: páginas de papel reciclado!
