Many indicators explained from a healthy philosophical outlook.

an interesting book on the advanced voodoo theories

with Technical Analysis Weirdos and the dangerous Futures Markets

I wouldn't take it too seriously, but there's interesting stuff in the dry advanced stuff
interesting to see what's been done, and other oddball book recommendations, as well as more interesting books on the topics I think are pure voodoo.

A good book for the flaky and freaky stuff

Two stars for at least mentioning testing and few other important, but not all, things. Otherwise would be1. In overall, dated. Trading using idnicators basically is entering on noise.
