Summary: Excellent Book!
Comment: This is an amazing book - in fact it is one of the better trading books that I have ever read. Mister Nison does an excellent job of explaining the functions of Japanese candlesticks. He begins his book with a brief history of how the candlestick came to exist and then starts with the basics. As the reader progresses, he explains some of the more advanced candlestick formations.
This book has many chart examples throughout the text. Mister Nison does an excellent job of illustrating the formation he is currently explaining. In addition to seeing new material in each chapter, the author also illustrates formations that we discussed in earlier chapters. This helped to engrain some of the more common formations in my head.
I feel that it is important to explain that candlesticks, while powerful, should probably not be used on their own. I feel that they can be a powerful tool when coupled with other technical indicators, such as trendlines. This book does explain how to use candlesticks along with other indicators, moving averages, oscillators, stochastics, volume, and open interest just to name a few.
The final section of the book contains a glossary of all the formations explained in the text. This will prove to be most useful due to the fact there are tons of formations to remember.
All-in-all, I found this book to be most informative. It is fairly expensive but I am sure it is fairly cheap in comparison to the knowledge that will be gained.

Summary: Excellent resource for understanding candlestick charts.
Comment: If you have heard of candlesticks but know nothing about them, look no further, this is THE book for you. In beautiful form and style, Steve Nison brings you into the world of Japanese candlestick charts and patterns. First giving you a fascinating history of the birth of the futures markets in Japan. Armed with that knowledge, Mr. Nison delves into the "psychology" behind the patterns that develope in the chart. He provides a thorough explaination of each pattern, down to it's historic name, and what to anticipate when the pattern unfolds. There is also a large part of the book devoted to using candlestick charts with various indicators i.e., stochastics, moving averages, relative strength, etc. You name it, he's got it. Actual charts are provided to visually enhance Steve Nison's explainations. Not only does he tell, but he showes you using various markets from coffee futures to the S&P market. This book is a must addition to the library of any trader who relies on technical analysis, from the beginer to the master.
