Short Description

No single technical indicator is sufficient to trade the markets--so investors must combine technical indicators in a way that conforms to their trading style. This comprehensive guide presents a systematic trading method that takes these issues into consideration. It also examines the value of each major trading indicator and the dynamics of their unique combination. By showing readers how to divide the market into six specific, identifiable phases--each with its own unique characteristics--this book will help investors locate low-risk/high-reward trading opportunities.

" 'Years ago Fortune magazine ran a powerful campaign about its media power under the slogan, 'There is nothing more powerful than a trend.' In reality there is something more powerful than a trend, and that is being able to perceive the beginnings and ends of trends.' That is the succinct and lucid opening to chapter one of Chuck Dukas' and T. Parker Gallagher's new book, The TRENDadvisor Guide to Breakthrough Profits, and I doubt anyone could say it better. ... This book is perfect for those interested in making the trend their friend." -- Elizabeth Thompson (SFO Magazine/May 2006)
