 Getting Started in Candlestick Charting August 26, 2008
It is very easy for beginner to read understand. It is very good as a quick intro but yet contains specific candlestick analysis that a beginner can use to advantage. Before I read this book I simply had no idea but depended on "experts" who were equally clueless.
 Concise, Comprehensive and Excellent August 17, 2008
I have been educating myself in Trading for just over a year. I have bought waaaaay too many books on candlestick, technical analysis, trading psychology, systems, etc. I might still have bought some of those books but if I purchased this book first, I would have bought far less. The author ties candlestick to technical analysis in simple, understandable and realistic ways. Yes, this book might best for beginning or intermediate traders but I was refreshed on so many basic concepts it kind of bothered me that I had laid waste to them. The author did a great job on the charts--they are contemporary and readily understood. Nice job...so many other books and charts make you break out the magnifying glass just to find the obscure reversal. Good job, good book, good information.
 Good but inadequate July 18, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a good little book for the money. But do not expect it to compete with Nison or Morris books. It is well written and easy on the beginner. Diagrams are good and author's style is easy enough to understand (a big plus). Her attempt to tie in the Candlestick and standard western technical analysis is good but inadequate. At a beginner's level, this is as good a book as any on this subject.
Great trading book May 21, 2008
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This book was very well written. The other books I have read on Candlesticks have basically offered bland descriptions without establishing their relationship to trading. I really enjoyed the way it integrated candlesticks with the other important aspects of trading and showed their relationship to Trend, Volatility, Oscillators and Gaps. It not only gives descriptions of the most profitable candlesticks, it also shows how to use them in conjunction with moving averages, stochastics, divergence and other related trading concepts. This book is the best general trading overview that I have found. As a result of reading the book I feel I am finally beginning to "get it." I only read the book last week and I have already made money by incorporating what I learned into my trades. I have started my second read to reinforce the learning process.
I am planning to order more copies for my friends who need help with their trading.

great job - I thought it was an excellent approach for both a beginner and advanced trader who wants to get started in candlestick trading. As usual you cover many angles there is to know about trading which not only includes the candlestick patterns, psychology, and their little nuances( like tails in a consolidation ) but you also offer added knowledge on trading the markets as well. You give a great roadmap for trading trends by using trend lines, moving averages and swing points to denote support and resistance as well as giving great insight with some helpful filters such as market indicators, volume and the understanding of volatility that the markets go through (ie expansion and contraction). Lastly the section on the risk reward ratio is a topic that every trader needs to be reminded for continued success.
