"Hope is one of the cruelest killers of capital in a novice day trader¿s session. For technical analysis to work for you, you must be totally disciplined: as soon as the reason that you entered the trade is no longer there, you must exit as quickly as possible."--Chris Lewis From the Introduction

A certain and dependable knowledge of price history and developing trends is money in the bank for day traders. On the other hand, traders who choose to rely on hope to determine when to buy or sell¿as in, "I¿ll buy 1,000 shares and hope the price goes up."-¿are destined to quickly and quietly become ex-traders.

The Day Trader¿s Guide to Technical Analysis shows you how to use technical analysis to strengthen your knowledge¿of what has occurred in the past, what should occur next, and how to protect yourself if it doesn¿t. A proven framework around which to base your trading decisions¿for both knowing why you succeed and understanding when you fail¿is demonstrated. Charting techniques for uncovering stocks with high return/low risk probabilities are provided. The techniques are truly profitable, as demonstrated through the author¿s own account, verified by an independent third party.

With The Day Trader¿s Guide to Technical Analysis, your days of guesswork could soon be over. This easy-to-follow and informative book provides active day traders with:
*In-depth explanations of chart reading, Nasdaq Level II screen interpretation, and time of sales
*3 conditions that¿when they occur¿greatly increase the profit potential in a given trade
*Pre-market preparation and stock selection techniques, plus different approaches for opening, middle, and closing periods of the trading day
*Proven strategies to get the best price for any trade, at any time, buy or sell
*Steps for critically evaluating all execution mechanisms open to you¿ECNs, SelectNet, SOES¿and knowing which will give you the best price
*Discussions of trading psychology, with market-tested rules for maintaining discipline while trading
*Information and statistics that all good traders must track on a daily¿and weekly¿basis
