Let me start by saying that this is a big book - if it were the size of your average book it would probably be around 857 pages. The book is a Q/A session with 16 different technical analysis Gods. Interviews include: Pring, Murphy, Weinstein, and Bollinger.

Overall the interviews contain good information that will fill in missing pieces of your technical analysis foundation. The exception is the first one, because the expert has chosen not to reveal the details of his system, opting instead to just talk about it in general. You can probably skip the first chapter, but after that it's golden. It's like having 15 mentors in technical analysis.

This is an outstanding book on a complex subject. I had to read part of it for the CMT Level 2 exam, but enjoyed reading the rest of the book after that.

With the exception of chapter one, this book goes from very good to great. It is written for those who have read a few technical analysis books and need to see how the professionals have weeded out the many techniques that do not work (90%?). It is interesting to see how famous authors will admit to the interviewer that much of the content of their books is filler and that only these few things have any substance.

Great book and a must read.

Interesting, but much of the information was not usable because of the use of indicators and methods not widely available to the average trader. Many of the 16 top traders have their own niche indicators. Overall the book was good and gave a view of what some super - successful traders do.
