The Investors Chronicle Guide to Charting by Alistair. Blair
This book explores charting from the viewpoint of an outsider. It explains in detail how charting theories work and gives you all you need to start practising technical analysis. Unlike other books on the subject, it puts the charting technique inton context. It compares technical analysis with fundamental analysis, and the records of some renowned exponents are examined. In a unique section, technical analysis is applied to recent price charts for each of the top 25 FTSE companies. This identifies both successful and failed recommendations by professional chartists and provides alternative interpretations of these 'live' charts. "Guide to Charting "is packed with purpose-drawn charts and worked examples. Written with the private investor's viewpoint in mind, the book's coverage will also interest the more sophisticated, experienced practitioner.
