It burns well in the Fireplace,
By A Customer
This review is from: Technical Analysis for the Trading Professional (Hardcover)
A thousand extra words were used for each "concept". I was suckered into trying out her service after being deferred to her website for all the "good stuff". I paid [$$$] for a quarter for what I now see is false advertising and I honestly have never seen someone make so many bad observations and be so wrong over any 3 month time frame. I've seen amateurs make more consistent calls at yahoo.A total shame that she holds back all the stuff that she claims works best, but clearly can't even analyze the markets in real time. A pitiful fleecing of the public with outrageous claims in the book and at her site.

Paying for an advertisement teaser for author's seminars?,
By A Customer
This review is from: Technical Analysis for the Trading Professional (Hardcover)
After reading this, I came away with nothing useful; except perhaps a reminder that I need to conserve my time better than reading something like this. It's extremely verbose with some off-the-wall pseudo-scientific meanderings, and left me wondering why she could not have condensed everything she had to say in this book into a very short pamphlet instead of a book. Also, much of it appears anecdotal and extremely subjective with little proof that her "discoveries" work in general. To me, most of the book appears to be an example of fallacious, "the part equals the whole" type of reasoning. In particular, I was extremely disappointed in her supposed "new" ways of viewing indicators. I found nothing new there. And, IMHO, it's unsconscionable for an author to tell you she has one technique that she values above all others, and then tell you that she refuses to tell you that technique. It made me wonder whether the purpose of the book was to inform, or was an advertising teaser to subscribe to her web site and expensive seminars.

This review is from: Technical Analysis for the Trading Professional (Hardcover)
Considering the many great Traders and authors out there who spill their guts to you for $50 bucks a book, it's disappointing to see an author so enamored with WD Gann's veiled secrecy that she would include way too many pages that say something like, 'I will not give this information [the beginnings of the information just introduced] to the public' after leading this same Public into believing they will get those same secrets.That means you and me. You know - those of us who thought we were buying useful information from someone of "Repute." And I am not just referring to the infamous Oscillator. If you are a VERY experienced Trader, you may find some things of interest here. OR you may have your curiosity challenged to do some deep digging on your own. Maybe that is the idea of the book. I did some very deep digging on the Internet after my second (recent) reading. But don't expect to find straight-forward answers to the author's greatest questions - make that, TEASES - here, little Grasshopper. Not until you are worthy to peak behind the Beaded Curtin, (the author's web site and expensive fees) and snatch the Pebble from the Masters hand. Nope. YOU are the "Public" this author so obviously distains. In my opinion, it's extremely rude to tell your students you will not give them what they paid for. If an author has Secrets, fine. Let that fact remain a secret, as well. But don't brag about what you are refusing to divulge to those who pay you. I should note that I bought this book several years ago, and tossed it into the Black Hole of my library. I was recently reminded of it again, so I thought I would give another look, since I was "older and wiser." Nope. This author's attitude still turns me off cold.
