Hi lcranston. I don't know if you've touched on the point above, but something has crossed my mind concerning the charts. Suppose we printed a diagnostic chart of a car engine ticking over, would we see similar patterns when compared to a financial market chart? Obviously, I don't want to...

So, four patterns that look similar, but price only moves on this occassion once the session begins. Once the session begins the price moves up, so I'm assuming these are buying type patterns?? Is this right? I'm not really seeing anything else at this moment in time, and I've only been looking...

Haha I can assure you there's no trolling, just some questions, I just want to find a general consensus in terms of chart trading. You've mentioned price development, this actually sounds like something that I'm looking for. I'm under the impression that the market as whole (contract volume)...

I hope this isn't a stupid question, but why would Joe Ross write a book if he has no knowledge or profits? Surely this would make him the laughing stock of the industry and not the standard?

Hi Saltynuts. I'll stick with with Joe Ross as an industry standard, unless I find him impossible to profit from, or he isn't proven with a large fund or something. Thanks.

Yeh definately, I can certainly see the logic in that. Thanks zdreg!

Hi qxr1011. That's exactly what I'm after, a standard trading method. Xela has reccomended a Joe Ross book which I'm going to purchase immediately, I'll use this book as a template, as my bible.

Hi Xela, and thanks for the speedy reply. Based on the above list and what you have said about the individual books, I'm going to choose the Joe Ross book, Trading the Ross Hook. I'll see if there's a free pdf to get me used to authors style before the actual book arrives. I've got a good...

Ok, so I need a book. Unfortunately there are absolutely tons of them on offer and I'm not sure which is the best for chart trading. Why do the chart trading books differ so much, I don't understand, a chart is a chart I would have thought? Basically, I just want the best book, whereby I read...

Hi SunTrader. The above chart is the other end of the scale, one minute time intervals. I've added volume as an indicator, and I'm currently looking for some kind of logic or reasoning to enter the market. What I have noticed immediately is that you don't seem to get much of a run for your money...

Wow, I didn't really expect much of a response, so thanks to all for the replies. Some, or most, of the information is a little over my head at this moment in time. Here's what I'm thinking. The market basically went up last year in quite a smooth fashion, until the new year, then it kind of...

Hi. First post, so excuse my apparent misunderstanding or inexperience. I've been looking at financial charts for a few weeks just out of interest, but I don't understand why there is so much variation in chart styles? So, I look at any particular chart style and I have to make a decision buy...
