You are looking for books on the application of trading strategies and those are hard to find. Sure, there are lots of books about trading, but few that outline strategies in much detail.

You already have Miner's book. That's a real keeper.

Reminiscenses of a Stock Operator
-- by Edwin LeFevre

Mastering Elliot Wave: Presenting the Neely Method: ...
-- by Neely (Advanced and not for the faint of heart)

Street Smarts; High Probability Short Term Trading Strategies
-- by Raschke and Conners
(Other Conners books are pretty good too)

Hit and Run Trading (two books)
--by Jeff Cooper
(more applicable to bull market wiggle traders this set)

MOST IMPORTANT IMO: I think the best books that a trader can read when they aspire to a new level are the trading psychology books.

Also not to be neglected are the books that interview great traders, like Schwager's Market Wizard books.

Finally, I think market history is important since we are in the unique position of living through a bubble and its collapse.

Devil Take the Hindmost
-- by Chancellor (Excellent, easy read)

Debt and Delusion
-- by Warburton

Manias, Panics, and Crashes
-- by Kindleberger

Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds
-- by MacKay

All mho and if I were a great trader I wouldn't be here on SI. -g/ng
