I've come across a couple of references to Munehisa Homma and his book "The Fountain of Gold â The Three Monkey Record of Money". He was an eighteenth century rice trader and reputedly the inventor of candlestick charts. Does anyone know if this was ever translated into English? It looks like a fascinating read but I can find no trace of it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homma_Munehisa
