A must-read book for all traders. A set of rules and techniques for a successful trading in order to keep and increase capital. "Trading for a Living" helps you master three areas: Mind, Method, and Money.

No es un libro que me haya llamado la atención. Es un Vademécum de técnicas. Y como todo, no tiene utilidad para saber que puede ser, o no, útil dependiendo de estado general de la situación económica, los ciclos, las tasas. Etcétera. Puede servir para refrescar cierto conocimiento.

Interesting read if you want to get an overview of existing indicators. Not very deep on the individual entries, only one or two pages each. But in general with a reference to other literature, an example chart and a short description.
There is some repetition in the descriptions but for similar indicators this is to be expected and is even helpful if the book is used to lookup something you found in a chart.

A useful book, but not that deep and not very well organized. Come to think of it, it's not really a book in the strict sense of the world. It's more like a manual of technical indicators.
