A Comprehensive Guide to the Theory and Practical Use of the 1-Box, 3-Box, 5-Box and Other Variations of the Point and Figure Charting Method Jeremy du Plessis, CMT FSTA, has produced the most complete work on Point & Figure available. The subject is covered from how it was invented on Wall Street right through to the application of some of the latest techniques. Areas such as On Balance Volume, Bollinger Bands, Market Breadth Analysis, Parabolic Stops are covered as well as sections on Optimisation and Scanning. Box construction, trend lines and Count targets are covered in depth. The 3 and 5 Box reversal methods are explained along with the powerful 1 Box method which has virtually been lost for decades. No element of Point and Figure construction is overlooked. The book also contains some truly groundbreaking work on risk/reward ratios too.

Quite simply, it is the most complete reference on the subject ever produced and a ‘must read’ for any serious investor, trader or fund manager.
About the Author
Jeremy du Plessis trained as an automotive engineer, then an economist, but gave them both up to become a Technical Analyst. In 1983 he founded Indexia Research and pioneered the development of PC based technical analysis software with the Indexia range of technical analysis systems. During the 1980s he developed a number of technical tools and indicators under the banner of Indexia, which are still used in software to this day.
He is an expert on Point and Figure charts, and the Indexia software was the first PC-based system to draw them correctly and clearly in the early 1980s. He lectures the Point and Figure module for the Society of Technical Analysts and sets the Point and Figure syllabus for the International Federation of Technical Analysts. He has taught Technical Analysis, and in particular Point and Figure, to thousands of professional traders and investors over the last 20 years. In 2001, after running Indexia Research for nearly 20 years, he agreed to merge the company with Updata plc, where he is now Head of Technical Analysis and the designer of the Updata Technical Analyst software.
He is a Fellow of the Society of Technical Analysts (FSTA) in the UK, and a member of the American Market Technicians Association (MTA). He is a holder of the Chartered Market Technician (CMT) designation awarded by the MTA.
