  3. Can anyone reflect on the differences in the chart pattern sections of Trader Vic's two books?

    Thanks

    Edit: The pages are conveniently not in google books' preview, so I will check out the first book from my library. Does the second add/extend anything important? Worth my time at all?

    that is just my opinion? I have a few years behind my belt to believe that is a good foundation compared to the others.. I never really liked crappy chart formation indicators. like the velez books are complete garbage. at least for me.

    like flags pennants breakouts and other formations that is written in most books.

    Most libraries in the US can get you books through the interlibrary loan program. I have been able to read some pretty unaffordable books that way.

  6. I mentioned it in a previous thread, but Price Action Trading by Bill Eykyn is a very helpful book for getting started and developing a structured approach to trading, with a focus on price action and support/resistance (as indicated by the title lol).

    It's somewhat pricey, so see if you can dig it up in the library. In any case, it has a good solid method/appraoch that covers all the bases, so even if you do pay for it, it's money well spent IMHO.

    Check out that interlibrary loan thing though, always good to save a few bucks.

  7. It's not available from the libraries, and I don't have the money for it right now, but I will keep it bookmarked for another time. I appreciate the suggestion.

  8. Cool, no problem. Hopefully it will pop up on the library thing one of these days.

    Good trading.

  9. Anyone have some recommendations on sources on Elliott Wave?

    I've found these on google: http://books.google.com/books?q=elliott+wave&btnG=Search+Books

    I also found the original "The Wave Principle" by Elliott.

    Online sources are fine as long as they are high quality, but I have already done the wikipedia-investopedia thing.

    Thanks,

    Greg
