My comments are primarily related to making money.
I read a book in 1957 to start making money. 4th Ed of Edwards and Magee. (It is now in 7th ED or so.)
I am only an amateur so I don't regularly circulate among pros or the industry.
I haven't read books 1,2,4,6,7,8,9,13,14,18 on your list. I have several of them because they were given to me.
I am a contemporary of Darvas and frequented his habitats at that time. Making money was very easy in those days; I used TA then and now.
I have a list of books that I used to recommed (34) a few years ago. ET is not oriented to such. And reading is not such a swift way to learn to make money. For example, there is a list of 30 some steps related to making money elsewhere. There are about 8 steps really. I over printed them on that list and then it failed to stick to the thread.
This, then, is a distaff post on books, etc.
Most of the posts here are diverse and not helpful to any extent. If a person were starting from scratch and wanted to learn to make money, the most important thing of all is to not follow in the footsteps of the ET traditions espoused here. You cannot imagine how damaging it is to do that.
By reading posts here and there, it is fairly clear in ES terms that a lot of ET people are wedded to making a daily average per contract of about a point.
I have most of the books and they are not very good, except for a few. They showed up at my place when they were written, mostly. I can't objectively judge them as beginner resources because I am already a person who is making money from the markets. Their overall quality is poor from a general point of view.
Not for making money, but for understanding something about how things work, I would recommend the following.
Edwards and Magee instead of Murphy as a "text".
HTMMIS by O'Neil as a way to learn about the baggage you currently have that will screw you up right off. (See the last chapter entitled 18 Common Mistakes Most Investors Make. Convert it to a lanscape chart and fill in a column periodically that tells you what repairs you still have to make. All 18 mistakes appear everyday in ET in posts.
Get a copy of Echelis, Technical Analysis from A to Z. Get a china marker (sharpie) and cross out all defualt designer coefficients. Replace each and every one with a post PC advent value. You are screwed if you use the original defaults. Use the sharpie to cross out all such defaults you find in any and every other book as well.
Mark up every page of Schwager's books where you read something in quotation marks. Tab every idea in each book with the a name you choose for each idea you find. Put in your journal the page number from Schwager each and very time you happen to write the name of an idea in your journal.
Get franklin's autobiography. There are 13 virtues in it that he practiced, a new one each week and a complete rotation every quarter. Keep in your journal your weekly excuses as to why you do not do as Franklin did because you are so lazy at this point.
Get Chopras SSLS. Reorient yourself from this point on instead of how you currently behave.
Get Idries Shah's KHTK. At some point making money becomes important. You will need to figure out a few things about the concept of making money and how you can relate to that. You can see by the posts that few here know how to do anything. A clue is that they are demonstrating (criptically usually) that they do not have any idea at all.
If you spend some quality effort on stuff, you will find yourself pointed specifically in one direction. This new orientation is the one most people arrive at just before they begin to make money. Almost no one in the trading world does it any other way. What you need to begin will show up when you are ready to ............learn.
Still, I promised to post it short while ago, and I will post it.
