Deciphering The Market Principles of Chart Reading and Trading Stocks, Commodities and Currencies J. M. W. Tadion Jay Tadion’s book makes a significant contribution to the library of works on technical analysis … In addition his work is immensely readable. His exposition of his theories is clear and comprehensible, demonstrating a scientific thesis for the statistical regularity of market movements … An informative and entertaining book — what more could you ask? Anne P. Whitby Head of Technical Analysis, 4CAST Ltd, London Deciphering the Market has been specifically written with the needs of forecasters, traders, economists and technical analysts in mind. It is a book on how to decipher the market and its movements as a cryptogram. It compares a number of uncomplicated and familiar systems and analogies with similar market movements, and by so doing arrives at a variety of forecasting and trading techniques. Being rational and non-dogmatic the procedures described are applicable to all markets but in order to avoid confusion these have been focused, by way of illustration and example, on one single market, namely, the foreign exchange market. Deciphering the Market is divided into five parts. Forecasting, Trading, Indicators, Data and Statistics, and concludes as a light relief with a Postscript which deals with such non-technical and timeless subjects as money neurosis, trading and related stresses.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

Taking a non-biased, scientific approach to the subject, Tadion exposes many of the cherished myths and preconceptions in the field of technical analysis. In their place he offers a refreshingly original and empirical approach to this increasingly popular area of finance.

From the Inside Flap

"I have read many books on the subject of technical analysis and chart reading but this is one of the very best I have encountered for a long time. It is such a pleasure to read this book because it simultaneously reveals a scientist’s crystal clear and disciplined thinking, and yet is written in a style which is easy to understand and is entertaining and amusing … the reader will take Cubic Regression analysis in his stride as if it were a back of envelope calculation." — from the Foreword by Robin Griffiths, James Capel, UK, and former President of International Federation of Technical Analysts.

This review is from: Deciphering the Market: Principles of Chart Reading and Trading Stocks, Commodities and Currencies (Hardcover)
All that I got out of reading this book is the idea that the author is a smart, successful person. I haven't the slightest clue as to how anything contained in the book can be used in my (or anybody else's) trading. Also, it is much less than an entertaining read. Avoid like the flu - unless you are a masochist, or have trouble sleeping!
