The market's bestselling and most comprehensive reference on chart
patterns, backed by statistics and decades of experience
When the smart money trades the securities markets, they leave behind
financial footprints. Combine enough footprints together and you have a
trail to follow. That trail becomes what's called a chart pattern.
Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns, Third Edition expands upon Bulkowski's
immensely popular Second Edition with fully revised and updated material
on chart patterns. Whether you're new to the stock market or an
experienced professional trader, use this book as a reference guide to
give you an edge.
Within the pages of this book, you'll learn how to identify chart
patterns, supported by easy-to-understand performance statistics
describing how well a pattern works, what the failure rate is, and what
special quirks suggest better future performance. You'll discover how
often a stop loss order will trigger at various locations within a chart
pattern, how the chart pattern's performance has evolved over the past
three decades, and how to profit from failure by trading busted
patterns.
