The second edition of Charles Kirkpatrick's (2011) Technical Analysis: The Complete Resource For Financial Market Technicians is as good as (or even better) than the Fidelity Technical Analyst stated. I went to another Fidelity training session and this book was presented as the best single technical analysis book currently available. The writing style was clear and was accessible to the "intelligent layman." If you happen to have a long-term background in trading as well as a strong fundamental understanding of statistics (especially regression analysis), you will appreciate the depth of coverage and the references to other sources. This is a fine text for a technical analysis course and is also an excellent source of information about many aspects of technical analysis. The text is 671 pages long. The index is 34 pages long. The reference section is 25 pages long. There is a section on basic statistics in an appendix as well as a glossary of technical terms. On a scale of ten I give this book a "ten" and I have never previously given a book such a high rating.

I begin my investment by using the value investing approach. "Securities Analysis" and "The Intelligent Investor" by Benjamin Graham are excellent books on value investing. They taught me how to pick stock based on fundamental analysis and give me great advice on investment - be patient, look for great business with great management, insist on margin of safety, future value is a function of present price, sell to optimists and buy from pessimists. I did make good profits by following Benjamin's advice. However, very often I buy too early when the stock price is falling and I sell too early when the stock price is rising. I can do much better if I had read this book. This book tells me how to measure market strength, why trend analysis is important, when to buy and when to sell by using various indicators, oscillators and patterns, how to confirm signal with volume. Now I can enter and exit a position with more confidence and most importantly, I make more money than before and loss less. I even allocate a portion of money specifically for short-term trading. I highly recommend this book to traders and value investors. Besides, "How to make money in stocks" by William J. O'Neil is a good companion to this book. William's book introduces his CAN SLIM method to pick stock and shows a lot more real life examples of patterns.
After the economic crisis in 2008, I think trend analysis becomes more important in investment as the market fluctuation is more frequent and violent and causes the buy-and-hold strategy less effective. I still use the value investing approach to pick stocks, but I need to act like a trader at the entry point and exit point to improve my profit margin.

If you are an academic looking for a text to start teaching students technical analysis while also explaining history, famous quotes, previous books, etc to make newbie students interested, this is a good book for that. For traders and real technicians who use this information for their work this book is largely fluff and the level of detail it goes into for each technique (when it eventually gets to it) is minimal (a little more than you would find on investopedia pretty much). There are no real examples, there are no real life trading insights, and the book seriously lacks a focus on "Financial Market Technicians" who are apparently the title content of the book. One of the primary things that drive a good product (or a good book) are knowing who it is targeted towards. This is clearly a beginner academic text / reference guide (for students), and a poor resource for Financial Market Technicians. I won't mention other books in this review but there are classic technical analysis books available that provide a much, much more useful resource for folks who actually trade or intend to trade the markets.

There are literally dozens and dozens of books out there on the field of Technical Analysis. If you're new to the discipline or want an in-depth, complete look at the technical nature of the markets this book is a must have in your collection. The first edition of this book was actually on the recommended reading list for Charted Market Technician? coursework. If you want one book that covers virtually every current key area in the field from 17 year market cycles to MACD Oscillators this is a great book. I sincerely think it will pay for itself many times over.
