In the years since its original publication, much has changed concerning technical analysis and market indicators. Many new indicators have emerged and are now in widespread use. Other indicators have fallen out of favor. Still other indicators that have been in use for years are being used in new ways or with a new twist. The revised edition of this classic will be much broader in scope and appeal and be more user friendly. The author has painstakingly updated the book and added an immense amount of new material (both indicators and formulas), including: Almost 100 new indicators; Fundamental indicators; Summary of important research findings; An introductory section details such key elements testing and modeling, and offers objective guidance regarding calculating and interpreting technical indicators. The author also included some "basics" material for beginners. The main part of the book lists the indicators in alphabetical order. Each indicator covers a few (two to five) pages and defines what the indicator is, explains the philosophy behind the indicator, who created it, and how to use it. The second edition of The Encyclopedia of Technical Market Indicators is truly comprehensive, covering virtually every indicator, and is sure to become a "must have" for every trader.
