Cover Notes:
A thorough examination of moving average trading systems, timing market cycles, the twelve-day rate of change, and many other topics of interest, such as:

  • The Time-Trend Momentum Trading System.
  • Determining market trends with moving and exponential averages
  • Setting price objectives with multiple moving averages
  • Changing the lead time in moving averages
  • Market momentum: how to use velocity to predict turning points in advance
  • Catching market tums with a channel reverse and filter trading systems
  • Systems for determination of the market’s major trend.

 

Stendahl Notes:
Okay it’s a bit dated … but it introduces indicators and basic systems that are still used in varying ways today. Although it’s a good book I’d suggest reading Gerald Appel’s other book Technical Analysis: Power Tools for Active Investors as it’s a more up-to-date.
