Chart Your Way To Profits: The Online Trader's Guide to Technical Analysis

An ad for Prophet charts

This book is really just a handbook for the author's own software - Prophet. It is a primer on all things technical analysis, but that seems to be the secondary purpose of the book.

If you use the Prophet software and are a new trader, this book may be great for you. Otherwise you definitely won't need to read through this... it's actually better to read the author's blog to get a better idea of how he trades.

An okay book

This was my first book about stocks so I can credit it to my beginning. There is one thing I like about Tim Knight and that is his simplicity. His charts have price, volume, and 1 or 2 lines he has drawn. He doesn't fill his charts up with indicators or a million unnecessary lines. Because of this I keep a very simple chart and couldn't be happier about that. Also this isn't the big book of technical analysis. He gives you the popular chart patterns, the psychology behind them, and some examples.

The downfall of this book is that it doubles as a Prophet Chart how to manual. That can be helpful but it takes up to much of the book.

Best Book on Technical Analysis for Prophet Chart Users

The book provides many examples to demonstrate the power of technical analysis. If you are not an expert, this book provides all the features of Prophet Charts and how to use them. Very, very useful is putting it mildly.

A well written book on technical analysis and the use of Prophet Charts. The author does something which many others do not, he simplifies technical study. Worth buying.

Nice read

As a reader of Tim's blog for the last few years, I finally bought his book and am glad I did. Tim's approach to Technical Analysis is simple, yet his concepts really do work. He focuses on just a few of the main TA tools and he really explains each concept in an easy-to-understand language. It was a very refreshing and engaging read after reading other books on TA which confounded me with the numerous concepts that all jumbled into each other after a while. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to learn Technical Analysis, as well as anyone looking to expand their knowledge.
