Long description
Martin Pring's Technical Analysis Explained, originally published in 1985 and now in its 3rd edition, is a perennial best-seller. The 3rd edition has sold more than 47,000 copies. The 4th edition will be coming out in 2002. The Study Guide for Technical Analysis Explained offers an excellent opportunity to capitalize on the strength of the 4th edition. The Study Guide for Technical Analysis Explained will be in the same spirit as Alexander Elder's Study Guide for Trading for a Living and John Murphy's Study Guide for Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets. This much slimmer volume will help readers profit even more from the ideas in Technical Analysis Explained. The author has prepared this study guide, packed with hundreds of questions and charts, to help traders master the essential skills of technical analysis. The chapters in the study guide correspond to the chapters in the main book. Most questions will be multiple choice, and there will be a heavy reliance on visuals, since that is the nature of technical analysis. Answers will be printed at the back of the book. The author tells the reader not only what the correct answers are but why they are correct and why the other answers are wrong. This study guide/work book will test the reader's comprehension of the main text and allow him or her to measure their progress and understanding. Readers will have a better understanding of the base principals of technical analysis that are so necessary to successful trading and investing. The Study Guide for Technical Analysis Explained is the perfect companion piece to the new edition of Technical Analysis Explained and should help bolster sales of the 4th edition through various bundling and packaging opportunities.
