About this title

About the Author

Joseph R. Hooper has been a property developer, stockbroker, and bank owner. He is the founder of Compound Stock Earnings and is now a financial educator, radio talk show host, and one of the world's foremost experts on covered calls. In the early 1980s, Hooper formed a bank holding company, purchased banks, directed their operations, and then sold them in the early 1990s. Later, he joined Merrill Lynch as a private client advisor, using his Covered Calls technique for client accounts.

Aaron R. Zalewski has a background in the finance industry, where he worked as an analyst within the investment banking industry. Zalewski left that profession to pursue a career as a full-time investor and is now Director at Compound Stock Earnings. He co-host's Compound Stock Earnings' weekly financial talk-back radio program, Unconventional Wi$dom—The CSE Investment Show, and is coauthor of the book Covered Calls and LEAPS: A Wealth Option.

Edwin L. Watanabe retired after thirty years in the commercial design business after learning the Covered Call and LEAPS techniques from Compound Stock Earning's principals, Joseph Hooper and Aaron Zalewski. During his thirty years in business, Ed traded as a hobby and, like many, pursued the frustrating task of trying to find a technical analysis method that consistently worked. While using the CSE Covered Call and LEAPS techniques for retirement income, Ed found himself with ample time to revisit the technical analysis methods that had frustrated him for thirty years. What followed was a three-year odyssey where he reformulated, tested, and back-tested thousands of combinations of indicators. Finally, he stumbled across a combination that consistently worked and began applying that combination to his Covered Call and LEAPS trading—with staggering results. Ed was averaging the highest monthly returns of any of the thousands of successful traders taught by Compound Stock Earnings.

After sharing this new methodology with CSE principals Joseph Hooper and Aaron Zalewski, Advanced Charting became part of the CSE curriculum and has now been taught and applied successfully by thousands of CSE traders. Ed is now Director of CSE's Advanced Charting program, teaching the CSE 2-Day Advanced Charting Seminar and running the CSE Advanced Charting Platinum Selections service. Ed's teachings have now been responsible for the creation of many millionaires and have allowed thousands of CSE clients to retire earlier than they ever thought possible.

From the Inside Flap

Technical analysis (or, in laymen's terms, simply "charting") is the study of a security's past price and volume movements in the hope of predicting that security's future price movements. Technical analysis exploits the fact that market psychology influences the price and trading patterns of a security and that these trading patterns are repeated time and time again.

While the existence of repetitive trading patterns and definitive market cycles has been proven in innumerable studies—technical analysis remains somewhat of a mystery for most investors and traders. The issue is that while the vast majority of investors and traders actually do recognize that technical analysis does work, most people in the market do not know how to correctly analyze a chart.

At last count, there were more than 175 recognized technical indicators. Of these 175 indicators, most traders will use a combination of four to ten indicators in order to assist with buy and sell decisions. However, what most traders don't realize is that each individual technical indicator can be set up with potentially twenty (or more) different time periods. Each time the time period is changed, the indicator will produce a different buy or sell signal. So, with just four indicators, we have the potential for eighty different settings. Each different combination of indicators and settings will produce a different buy and sell signal. Now extrapolate this variety of combinations and settings across 175 indicators and you have 4 million different combinations!

The fact that there are 4 million different ways to set up technical indicators leaves the vast, vast majority of traders in a perpetual state of guessing and testing. The odds of finding the perfect combination of indicators in any one lifetime is zero to none.

Technical analysis works. It works so well that thousands of our clients make upwards of 20% per month using these techniques. In order to make such astonishing monthly returns, traders simply need the right combination of indicators, the right settings, and the right order in which to analyze them in.

This book details a combination of twenty correctly set, proprietary indicators and the order in which you are to read them. This information represents decades of work and millions of dollars in testing, reformulating, development, and real money trading. After you have learned this charting method, you can predict the future price movement of stocks and the overall market with astonishing accuracy. This book is the holy grail of technical analysis. It is the most accurate and predictive technical analysis method ever to be made publicly available. The information in this book is what millions of traders "guess and test" for their entire trading lives, but rarely, if ever, find.
