A completely original approach to trading using price bar charts

In Reading Price Charts Bar by Bar, Al Brooks-a technical analyst for Futures magazine and an independent trader-demonstrates how the information gleaned from this method can significantly enhance trading returns, while minimizing downside risk. Written with the serious trader in mind, this book reveals how to read the information content of every bar on a price chart, and manage trades all day long. It also provides a unique understanding of how to visualize entry and exit points as markets are trading in real-time. There is an important niche in technical analysis and price action: the bar-by-bar analysis of price charts. Brooks shows readers how to take advantage of the information this approach offers, and make great trades along the way.

Al Brooks, MD (Roseville, CA), is a technical analysis contributor to Futures magazine and an independent day trader. His approach to reading price charts was developed over a 20-year period in which he changed careers from ophthalmology to trading. He graduated from the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine and received his BS in mathematics with honors from Trinity College.
