Beyond Candlesticks
New Charting Methods Revealed

Description:

In 1990, Steve Nison introduced traders in the West to a powerful analytical tool that had long given Japanese investors a competitive edge. Now, with this groundbreaking new book, the 'Father of Candlesticks' further revolutionizes technical analysis with an entire collection of stunningly effective Japanese techniques.

In Beyond Candlesticks, Steve Nison unveils the mysteries of four more of Japan's most closely guarded financial secrets - Kagi, Renko, Three-Line Break charts, and the Disparity Index - incredibly versatile techniques for forecasting and tracking market prices and buying and selling periods.

In addition to instructing readers in these exciting new charting techniques, Nison also takes us deeper inside the mysteries of candlesticks than ever before. Expanding his coverage beyond the futures markets that were the focus of his 1991 classic, Japanese Candlestick Charting Techniques, Nison describes candlestick patterns that can be applied to stocks, bonds, and foreign exchange. He also demonstrates new ways in which candlesticks alone or in conjunction with traditional Western techniques, can be adapted to virtually any trading, investing, or hedging strategy.

Affording Western readers an unprecedented opportunity to acquaint themselves with these powerful, centuries-old techniques, Beyond Candlesticks is a resource that no trader can afford to be without.
