Diane,

I'm glad to hear some benefits have been conferred.

Here are a few good books:

John Murphy on Chart Analysis
Trading For A Living By Alexander Elder
Wiliam Jiler: How charts can help you in the stock market.

Good luck,

Conservatively Yours,
Raymond J. Norris

Diane,

I had someopne provide this link to me a long time ago, and I still find it one of the best to date (thanks again Todd, that was you, one day way back ago :o)

metastock.com

You'll find an online copy of the book "Technical Analysis From A To Z" presented in online fashion, which makes it easy to take in a little bit at a time, as well as refer to charts while you're testing out the concepts.

Scroll down the page, and simply click on one of the indicators in the left column; you'll get a detailed analysis of the basis of the indicator, examples of how to apply the indicator, as well as under what circumstances the indicator should (and should not) be used.

Best to you, T/A is not "magic", it is hard work, susceptible to inaccuracies (like everything else), and only as good as the person that applies it. If you have the mind to study an indicator a night, looking at maybe 10 charts for a better understanding of how it might assist you, I think in 3 months you could really have a good handle on the subject.

I caution against quick application of T/A with real money, wouldn't be prudent :o)

Good luck, and if you learn to apply rational investing, which combines fundamental and technical analysis, I think you'll benefit immensely.

Regards, JB
