Reading Price Charts Bar By Bar (by AL Brooks)

March 4th, 2010

I finally got the two books I ordered from Amazon…

  1. Reading Price Charts Bar by Bar (by AL Brooks), and
  2. Trade What You See (by Larry Pesavento and Leslie Jouflas)

Received them yesterday morning… The postman came when I was still sleeping… Luckily he knocked loud and long enough to wake me up… Managed to catch him before he went off…

Anyway, I’ve started reading the first book… It is really a difficult book to read… there’s loads of information in it… The author is obviously an experienced trader who’s passionate about sharing his knowledge… However, because there’s so much information presented on each page, it makes it hard to digest and retain the information… it would be better if the author added more headings, sub-headings, bullet points and charts…

Initially, I gave myself two days to complete the first chapter… Now I’ve decided to give myself a month to complete and MASTER the chapter… It’s easy to finish reading the chapter, but to fully absorb what’s taught will require much more effort… I’ve decided to read and re-read multiple times and make my own notes to fully master the book… This is a good book… and the author definitely deserves such effort from his readers….
