H. Tam, a noted pioneer in exploring the Japanese candlestick methodology * Ideal for anyone who wants to invest or trade in both the futures and stock markets * Includes hundreds of illustrated charts The Power of Japanese Candlestick Charts is a comprehensive and valuable guide to candlestick charting that is perfect for analysts, stock or day traders, and short-term position traders.
