really 3 1/2 starts
A quick overview of some not well known but interesting methods like Drummong Geometry and Schaffer expectional analysis more some interesting insigths on more traditional methods (Gann , P&F, fibonacci, Japanys clouds,..).
Interesting for who needs a basic idea of many different methods.
A wide trasversal knowledge even if very basic is always usefull for new ideas and developing of eveyone's trading framework

Not bad but Not that good too
I have most of constance brown books, But this book is not what I expected. The best thing that you can get out of this book is maybe 3 good chapters and the COMPOSITE INDEX FORMULA that detect RSI divergence failures which is really worth buying the book for !

OK book
Good enough introduction to the basics of some higher-level technical analysis and their thinking, but not very in depth on any of them. You'll have to spend a lot more money (literally thousands) for the in depth, advanced courses that actually teach youohow to use many of these systems - for example, Drummond Geometry or deMark. This book is a good starting place, but nothing more than that.
