Customer Reviews
Tries to sell reader a certain serarch progra,
The book did do a fair job of showing the reader what is possible with a stock search programs; one in particular Telescan (which a trial version was included with my book.) Overall it lent itself too mush to this single program and read like a user manual for it; the book would be pretty much usless if you don't own telescan at a cost of arround $500.
Telescan marketing tool
I was very disappointed in the content and undercover marketing scheme to get signed on to telescan. We need books to enlighten new investors not pay to play.
Learn to analyze stocks with high tech tools
This book is a good guide to the fundamentals of screening and backtesting, using the free software included with the volume. Despite its focus on technical analysis, the book is still easy to follow, as Brown carefully steps through the process of analyzing stocks with high-tech tools
