Fractal Market Analysis: Applying Chaos Theory to Investment and Economics by Edgar E. Peters

Summary

Good book on the subject with reasonably clear explanation. College level math a requirement to read the book. Not a book for traders in general. More like a book for academics interested in analyzing market behaviours from afar.

Elliott Wave Principle: Key To Market Behavior by A.J. Frost and Robert R. Prechter

Summary

The book that defines the Elliott Wave technical analysis method. The concepts presented in the book and the supposed confirmation of the principle by the example charts do not follow the principle of scientific method. Elliott Wave is not proved (nor disproved) to be useful for trading by the book although many people may be misled otherwise. I cannot recommend this book.

Investment Secrets of a Hedge Fund Manager: Exploiting the Herd Mentality of the Financial Markets by Laurence A. Connors and Blake E. Hayward

Summary

Good book with clear trading rules. Many statistics and actual examples are there to explain what the trading setups are trying to accomplish. Not a book for beginners as the information provided are quite technical in nature. The language used can be offending to people who cannot put down their ego to see what the other side of the game has been doing to take their money.
