Martin Prings Intro
to Technical Analysis
by Martin Pring
A Note from Martin: "Introduction to Technical Analysis is a workbook/CD-ROM tutorial combination. Normally with a book the CD is a "throw away" but with this introductory course the real value is in the CD, in this case it's the book that is the "throw away"!! The course is an audio visual presentation lasting over 7 1/2 hours. It takes the subject of technical analysis from A to Z and is designed for anyone who is just starting to read charts. Many teachers of technical analysis around the world use this course as a simple textbook from which to teach. Subjects covered include, trendlines, price patterns,volume, momentum ,candlesticks and much much more. There is even a interactive multiple choice quiz at the end of each chapter, that automatically scores your results.
When you have watched this CD the graphs at StockCharts.com will literally come alive."
