Product Description
Profitable Candlestick Trading Pinpointing Market Opportunities to Maximize Profit Misunderstood by investors for years, Japanese Candlestick charting and analysis has been described as too complicated to learn and too labor-intensive. Now, Candlestick trading expert Stephen Bigalow dispels these notions and demystifies the process of this valuable and successful technical analysis tool in Profitable Candlestick Trading: Pinpointing Market Opportunities to Maximize Profit. In accessible and easy-to-understand language, this book bridges the gap between past wisdom and contemporary practice to give any level of investor a complete understanding of this proven, profitable, and time-tested investing technique. "A superb exposition of Japanese Candlesticks: the oldest method of technical analysis developed more than 400 years ago. The book offers a thorough review and evaluation of this increasingly popular method of market analysis. A great source of information both for an experienced trader and a novice in this field."

 Not the best November 16, 2008
ML (Singapore)
I've read two intro texts to candlesticks. This one and Nison's first book.
The current book is not really bad, but Nison's book is much better. So in my view the choice is easy.
In the current book there are a lot of patterns listed with three or four candles and they seem very much adhoc, I don't really buy the underlying reasoning. Bulkowski has analysed these patterns in "Encyclopedia of candlesticks" and he finds that many of these patterns are very rare. Bulkowski put everything through his computer and found that some patterns occur maybe 100 times out of 100,000. To name and label such rare patterns is silly and borders on the dishonest. Especially since they are not that extraordinary the 100 times they occur.
I have written several short reviews on trading books. The best way is to compare the score on the books I've read. Many reviews on amazon.com are just glorious 5 star reviews. I use all five categories; sorry but everything isn't "great". Books rated 5 are very good. Books rated 4 are good solid books well worth reading. Books rated 3 can be bought by some people who read a lot or have very specific needs. Books rated 1 or 2 I would not recommend buying or reading. Naturally all in my humble opinion.
 Too many typos create much confusion... September 3, 2008

Too many typos in this book. Book refers to bulls when it means bears making some sections a confusing mess. At this price the book should've been carefully proof-read before release.

This is a great book for beginners and the more experienced alike. An excellent reference manual to have on the bookshelf. It's the sort of book you dip into for info and not the type you would read from cover to cover. Also, it explains matters in an easy to digest format. With so many books available on the subject, I think this book is a good investment.

I was doing poorly in the stock market. I read this book and I started to see success. Candlestick signals are a wonderful way to do technical analysis. I wish this book would have crossed my path sooner. Steve makes this book easy to understand and follow. Learn how and when to enter and exit stocks. Also learn how to manage you money for sucess.
 Great Information But....... August 17, 2007

I'm very pleased with the information contained in the book. However, most of the information contained in the book can be found on the authors website for free. Just google Stephen Bigalow and check it out for yourself, lots of info in the forum at that site as well. I read some other reviews (at another site) that recommended his second book over this one as the basics can be found at his website (and several others) and you can get more into the theory in the other book. With that said I still recommend it and would say its a 5 star rating based on the information. I use it every night while doing my research for the next trading day. Anyway, just something to know. Seems most days you can find just about anything on the net if you look hard enough. May all your days be bullish kickers!
