Hello again,

I can only say that if you want to make money then I suggest you move it to the top of your list. No joking. It's probably one of the cheapest books to buy (when compared to others) and, if you ask me, it's worth a 'gazillion' times more to you than it costs.

I must just tell you (everyone) that I still find it hard to believe that this book 'fell out of vogue'. If I'm not mistaken, when it was written, it was THE book on technical trading. I can only surmise that it 'fell out of vogue' because newer, supposedly better, techniques and ideas came out and were well advertised. That, coupled with the fact that the systems themselves can be cumbersome to maintain on a daily basis (and the chances of maintaining them on shorter timeframes would be nigh impossible depending on how many instruments you were going to trade), could be another reason. Put it this way: I can identify with the latter because I had the book for a very long time and when I first got it I really thought that the stuff looked 'old' and 'dated' and the systems just looked too time consuming to use (easy way out???). It was only when I landed up (just about) broke that I really started analysing the systems and programming them into my trading platform(s) and using them and I can tell you that all the late nights and frustration are paying off right now.

Anyway: I'm very keen to see what other people ('technical gurus???') have to say about it (Tony???).
