Review
"…should prove valuable to those already practicing technical analysis and who want to take their trading to the next level." (Investors Chronicle, Friday 28th March 2008)
Product Description
Trading the financial markets is extremely difficult, but with the right approach, traders can achieve success. Nobody knows this better than authors Larry Pesavento and Leslie Jouflas, both traders and educators of traders, who have consistently used pattern recognition to capture profits from the markets. In Trade What You See, Pesavento and Jouflas show traders how to identify patterns as they are developing and exactly where to place entry and exit orders. While some patterns derive from the techniques of Wall Street’s earliest traders and other patterns reflect Pesavento’s emphasis on the geometry of market movements and Fibonacci numbers.. Filled with hard-won knowledge gained through years of market experience, Trade What You Seeoutlines both a practical and sophisticated approach to trading that will be of interest to both novice and seasoned traders alike.
Larry Pesavento is a forty-year veteran trader. He operates a Web site,

Pattern Recognition Guidance, Nov 12 2007
By S. Hogan - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Trade What You See: How To Profit from Pattern Recognition (Hardcover)
"Trade What You See" is an excellent guide to help traders filter through market volatility and media hype. Jouflas' and Pesavento's latest offering is a concise overview of how to look at the markets and identify high probability, low risk trade opportunities. From Fibonacci ratios, AB=CD patterns, to trade management and trading plan, any trader can supplement their own trading style with the basic trade guidelines outlined in this book.
As another review of this book has pointed out, the section "Learning to Recognize Trend Days" is very valuable. This section can be helpful to any trader to take advantage of trend day opportunities. The section is invaluable for countertrend traders who have not yet developed a strategy to recognize and trade trend days. At the very least, simply identifying a trend day can keep a countertrend trader from getting caught in low probability trade situations. Jouflas takes you through multiple steps of a trend day enabling a trader to more easily assess what is happening.
Disclosure: I have followed both Leslie Jouflas and Larry Pesavento for several years. Even so, in reading this book, I found myself brushing up on some areas. Especially the "Trend" section.

A few good ideas but overrated and very disappointing., Feb 21 2008
By Sau Cheung - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Trade What You See: How To Profit from Pattern Recognition (Hardcover)
I've come to trust the reviews on amazon but i have to say that they are way off the mark for this particular book.
After trading for a few years, i've come to the belief that the simplest chart patterns are the best and you can find just about any pattern on a chart if you squint hard enough.
The authors would point out "ABCD" patterns after they have formed.
Perhaps the book was just poorly written but i just dont see the book helping any beginners and very few experienced traders.

Excellent Stock Trading Guide, Dec 9 2007
By Gordon Fowlds - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Trade What You See: How To Profit from Pattern Recognition (Hardcover)
"Trade What You See" provides an excellent overview for an individual who is interested in trading stock and commodity markets. Many books try and guarantee the perspective trader that the markets will provide you with riches and absurd returns. Instead the authors of this book are very careful to not provide the reader with wild exaggerations of potential market trading profits. The readers are provided with a clear and concise explanation of market patterns and the use of Fibonacci ratios in assisting a trader on when to enter and exit the market. Numerous pattern examples are given where the probability for a positive trade is significantly higher than 50% and how a trader should approach these situations.
"Trade What You See" covers in detail how to reduce the risk of losses through the use and placement of stops while minimizing the risk on any given trade. Throughout the book the writers are very careful to point out the pitfalls of trading and how to avoid large losses. The authors cover in detail a sound money management system and place it as the major key to becoming a successful trader. This is why this book is very well done.
There is no hype, just a pragmatic, objective approach to stock trading. Anyone who trades stocks or commodities needs a copy of this book. The book is very useful not just for "day" traders, but long term investors who want to know when to buy and sell stocks and avoid large losses. Even for a person who trades on fundamentals this book is an important guide.
If you purchase this book and follow the provided money management principles, you will certainly minimize your risk of incurring large losses in the stock market. This is why I found this book superior to other books I have read on stock trading.
