One green, one blue. Gina is young, beautiful, smart, and hoping to
find true love. But one date with the wrong man changes everything. She fights for her life the only way she can: destroy or be destroyed. She moves away and begins a new life with an old past, a past sprinkled with secrets. A chance encounter with her neighbor, Paul, reignites her need to find direction, fulfillment, and love. Has she discovered "the
one" or is he just another man she can't trust? Dark shadows from the past stalk her. Deep insecurities she fought so hard to hide threaten to sabotage her new romance.

I am often asked what is the difference between my books, and which one should I buy first? Here's the answer. Chart Patterns: After the Buy. Focus: Shows
how stocks typically behave after a chart pattern appears. My book, Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns is to human anatomy as Chart Patterns: After the Buy is to human behavior. Chart Patterns: After the Buy shows how a stock acts after a chart pattern appears, so we can use that knowledge before buying to boost the odds of trading success. It covers
chart patterns, but from a different perspective than all of my other books. Read an excerpt on double bottoms from the book (pdf: 1.58 mb). This book is meant as a reference. Encyclopedia of Candlestick Charts Focus: Candlesticks and their performance. This book is the definitive reference book covering 103 candlestick patterns. This is one of the
few candlestick books that tests each candle pattern and reports on that performance in a clear and concise manner. Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns. Focus: The internals of chart patterns. This is a definitive (and popular) reference book on chart patterns, reviewing 53 chart and 10 event patterns packed with performance information, identification
guidelines, failure rates, breakout statistics, size and height stats, volume stats, trading tactics, and more. It peaked at #5 in Australia at Amazon.com. Fundamental Analysis and Position Trading: Evolution of a Trader Focus: Value investing. A primer about value investing (P/E and PSR ratios, book value, cash flow, dividends, and so on) and adding
market timing to a buy-and-hold strategy using position trading. I test each of the fundamentals to see how they perform. The book tells what to look for when selecting stocks to double your money and to find 10-baggers (stocks that rise by 10 times the investment). Getting Started in Chart Patterns Focus: Chart pattern information and trading the
stock market for beginners. This book is a popular, low cost choice for both the novice and expert trader wishing to tune-up the basics. Written as a narrative (not a reference book), it discusses chart patterns and includes details on many of my trades, so you can get a feel for how I use chart and event patterns. This book is more advanced than the
Visual Guide to Chart Patterns described below. Swing and Day Trading: Evolution of a Trader. Focus: Swing and day trading. The book explains how to use chart patterns to swing and day trade, including major reversal times for day traders, plus the opening range breakout and opening gap setups. This book zeros in on the shorter time scales. It
also includes a chapter on horror stories, which is an interesting read all by itself. I interview traders and discuss their botched trades. Trading Basics: Evolution of a Trader. Focus: Information you'll need when trading or investing in the stock market. This book covers subjects like how much money you'll need for trading/investing, position sizing,
scaling in and out of positions, leverage, dollar cost averaging, portfolio composition, how long to hold a stock, with entire chapters dedicated to stop placement, and support & resistance. It has a chapter on 45 tips every trader should know. This book tests each idea to see how well it performs and provides an in-depth look at what you need to invest
and trade stocks. Trading Classic Chart Patterns. Focus: a scoring system for chart patterns. The book introduces a scoring system to help you select the most popular chart patterns that lead to big gains. Visual Guide to Chart Patterns Focus: A beginner's guide to chart patterns This book is an entry level guide to chart patterns, taking you from how
to recognize them, what are minor highs and lows, constructing trendlines (Part I), and into the many varieties of chart patterns (part II), ending with buy setups (part III) and sell signals (part IV). This narrative book has lots of color charts and also includes quizzes, which are difficult but fun to take. One Testimonial Here's a testimonial that's worth
reading not for what he says about my books (which is nice) but about his success trading the markets. Dear Mr. Bulkowski, I'm a 22-year old college student and an options trader. For the last year and four months, before June, I virtually traded options at real time, turning one hundred thousand into five million. Then, at the beginning of the
summer, I opened my first real money account, and have made a little less than 1,200% on my account, never having more than 30% of my entire account invested at one time, never having more than 15% in one stock (now no more than 10%, eventually I'll get it down to having no more than 5%). I got started in charts with Getting Started in Chart
Patterns, I followed that book with Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns, and followed that with Trading Classic Chart Patterns, with the recommendations listed on Dan Zanger's site. I loved those books so much that I bought Encyclopedia of Candlestick Charts, since I'm a fan of charts. I was amazed at how much I had already figured out. You put names
to what I was just observing and statistics that made me even more profitable. I keep both your encyclopedias next to my computer while I go over my stocks ever night, and I see a break out. My parents are mad at you because now they can't claim me on their taxes this year. Just kidding, I bought my dad the boat he always wanted because they
matched my account which gave me a few extra dollars to play with. I hope your trading is doing well and your doing well. Thank You So Much. Your Books Are Awesome. -- Trader01603 Thinking of buying an Encyclopedia? Read this. Occasionally I receive emails thanking me for my website and books. However, it's rare to receive one like what
you'll read next (used with permission). Thanks for the kind words, C.O. Mr. Bulkowski: I wrote to you some 9 years back or so, to tell you of my success trading. Starting with $2k in 2009, by 2011, I had turned it into $430K. Unlike most, my story didn't stop there. I've had only two losing years, 2016 (my father died) and I lost 14%, and 2017, I got
married and I lost 12%. Other years I've had returns that could be called major. I have since traded consistently into the high seven figures. Last year was a golden year for me, where I traded a $10K Vacation account into $530K (as well as seeing a near 1,000% return on my major account--a good come back after two down years.) I'm a 90%
Technical Trader that trades everything. Stocks, futures, and Forex. And I've used your two encyclopedias as my tools to trade those markets clearly. Encyclopedia of Candlestick Charts [pictured on the right] is by far one of the most in depth books I've read on the subject of candlestick charting, and it's also the most accurate, and inaccurate (but it's
what I've used to make the most profit on). Using Candlestick patterns isolated, I've seen continuation moves after an engulfing pattern that should've been a reversal, and each of the failure ,or randomness that you attest to I've seen. This makes the book hugely accurate. But, your analogy of three blind men being no better at finding their location
together, than apart, I believe is wrong. Not the analogy itself, but the argument that taking Candlestick patterns into consideration in a bigger picture. [Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns, 2nd Edition, pictured on the right is the second encyclopedia he is referring to] I began to combine them with basic chart patterns. Broadening ascending and
descending patterns, Inverted cups, Head and shoulders (complex and simple), Bump and Run patterns, double top, and double bottom, and about 6 or so other patterns that I've found along the way that work across markets, and have been hugely profitable. It's been a decade since I've started trading. A decade of reading and studying your books,
watching and comparing things to the markets, and I must say, your two encyclopedias have produced some of the best and most accurate frames of patterns and their reliability that I've ever seen. Just thought I'd share that with you. Heartfelt thank you for all you've added to the trading community. C. O. Chart Patterns: After the Buy Chart
Patterns: After the Buy is a companion book to Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns. I looked at thousands of chart patterns to discover how they behaved after placing a trade. Then I used that knowledge to help predict which chart patterns would outperform. The book covers the most popular chart patterns but also other seldom-discussed patterns, too.

Chart Patterns: After the Buy goes beyond simple chart pattern identification to show what comes next. Author and stock trader Thomas Bulkowski is one of
the industry's most respected authorities in technical analysis; for this book, he examined over 43,000 chart patterns to discover what happens after you buy the stock. His findings are detailed here, to help you select better buy signals, avoid disaster, and make more money. Bulkowski analyzed thousands of trades to identify common paths a stock
takes after the breakout from a chart pattern. By combining those paths, he discovered the typical routes a stock takes, which he calls configurations. Match your chart to one of those configurations and you will know, before you buy, how your trade will likely perform. Now you can avoid potentially disastrous trades to focus on the big winners. Each
chapter illustrates the behavior of a specific pattern. Identification guidelines help even beginners recognize common patterns, and expert analysis sheds light on the period of the stock's behavior that actually affects your investment. You'll discover ideal buy and sell setups, how to set price targets, and more, with almost 370 charts and illustrations
to guide you each step of the way. Coverage includes the most common and popular patterns, but also the lesser-known ones like bad earnings surprises, price mirrors, price mountains, and straight-line runs. Whether you're new to chart patterns or an experienced professional, this book provides the insight you need to select better trades. Identify
chart patterns Select better buy signals Predict future behavior Learn the best stop locations Knowing the pattern is one thing, but knowing how often a stop will trigger and how often you can expect a stock to reach its target price is another matter entirely-and it impacts your trade performance immensely. Chart Patterns: After the Buy is the
essential reference guide to using chart patterns effectively throughout the entire life of the trade. Getting Started in Chart Patterns, Second Edition Chart pattern analysis is not only one of the most important investing tools, but also one of the most popular. Filled with expert insights and practical advice from one of the best in the business, Getting
Started in Chart Patterns, Second Edition helps new and seasoned traders alike profit by tracking and identifying specific chart patterns. Substantially revised and expanded, this new edition of the popular guide now includes additional charts for ETFs and mutual funds. It introduces more than 40 key chart formations, as well as trading tactics that
can be used in conjunction with them. It supplies actual trades (with dollar amounts), along with author Thomas Bulkowski's frank discussion of how trading behavior can affect the bottom line. Interwoven throughout the technical presentations are fascinating anecdotes drawn from the author's quarter-century as a professional trader that vividly
demonstrate how one of the best in the business leverages the power of chart patterns. Getting Started in Chart Patterns, Second Edition Table of Contents Testimonial "I started out in late 2003 with $123,000 in our multiple IRA accounts. My results, focusing exclusively on the Precious Mining Junior Exploration Companies, really took off AFTER I
read your [Getting Started in Chart Patterns] book. By March 2006, our IRA accounts had exceeded $1,000,000. Your explanations of Support & Resistance; Fibonacci retracements; and High, Tight Flag formations really paid off!" -- email from Rich K. of California Endorsements (from the book cover): "When it comes to chart reading, Thomas
Bulkowski can be categorized as a sui generis (constituting a class alone). Combining objective analysis with a fictional element has resulted in a highly entertaining read, one that any trader will benefit from." Jayanthi Gopalakrishnan, Editor of Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities magazine. "Nobody explains the nuts and bolts of how -
exactly - to use chart patterns to make real money in trading like Tom Bulkowski. I always do better in my own trading after reading a Bulkowski book. This is the practical, down-to-earth guidance you have been looking for in books on technical analysis. Bulkowski doesn't give you platitudes - he gives you live examples. Even better, he admits that
patterns don't always deliver what we expect and he quantifies both success and failure rates for the top moneymaking patterns. Nobody writes about chart work better than Bulkowski." - Barbara Rockefeller, independent trader and advisor (www.rts-forex.com), author of Technical Analysis for Dummies. "In Getting Started in Chart Patterns,
Bulkowski offer easy-to-apply advice for looking at charts and making them work more effectively for you in your trading. It is his passion; it probably also will become yours after reading this book. A must for budding technicians!" - Gail Osten, Executive Editor of Stocks, Futures & Options (SFO) magazine.

Fundamental Analysis
This book explains and describes the test results of various fundamental factors such as book value, price-to-earnings ratio, and so on, to see how important they are to stock selection and performance. The Fundamental Analysis Summary chapter provides tables of fundamental factors based on hold times of one, three, and five years that shows
which factor is most important to use for those anticipated hold times. The tables provide a handy reference for buy-and-hold investors or for other trading styles that wish to own a core portfolio of stocks based on fundamental analysis. Chapters such as "How to Double Your Money," "Finding 10-Baggers," and "Trading 10-Baggers" put the
fundamentals to work. The chapter titled "Selling Buy-and-Hold" helps solve the problem of when to sell long-term holdings. Position Trading The second part of the book explores position trading. It introduces market timing to help remove the risk of buying and holding a stock for years. Have you heard the phrase, Trade with the trend? How often
does a stock follow the market higher or lower? The section titled, "What is Market Influence on Stocks?" provides the answer. This part of the book looks at how chart patterns can help with position trading. It discloses the 10 most important factors that make chart patterns work and then blends them into a scoring system. That system can help you
become a more profitable position trader when using chart patterns. Six actual trades are discussed to show how position trading works and when it does not. Consider them as road maps that warn when the road is bumpy and when the market police are patrolling. Eric Andersen writes, "I read "Fundamental Analysis and Position Trading" most

from the preface The three books in the Evolution of a Trader series were written for people unfamiliar with the inner workings of the stock market, but will curl the toes of professionals, too. Research is used to prove the ideas discussed, but is presented in an easy to understand and light-hearted manner. You will find the books to be as entertaining
as they are informative and packed with moneymaking tips and ideas. Use the ideas presented here to hone your trading style and improve your success. Whether you are a novice who has never purchased a stock but wants to, or a professional money manager who trades daily, these books are a necessary addition to any market enthusiast's
bookshelf. Swing Trading The last book of the three covers Swing and Day Trading: Evolution of a Trader. The first part of the book highlights swing trading techniques, explains how to use chart patterns to swing trade, swing selling, event patterns (common stock offerings, trading Dutch auction tender offers, earnings releases, rating changes, and
so on) and other trading setups. It tears apart a new tool called the chart pattern indicator. The indicator is not a timing tool, but a sentiment indicator that is great at calling major market turns. Day Trading Day trading reviews the basics including home office setup, cost of day trading, day trading chart patterns, and the opening range breakout. It
discusses research into the major reversal times each day and what time of the day is most likely to set the day's high and low-valuable information to a day trader. An entire chapter discusses the opening gap setup and why fading the gap is the best way to trade it. Another chapter discusses the opening range breakout setup and questions whether it
works. Ten horror stories from actual traders complete the series. They have been included to give you lasting nightmares. Swing and Day Trading Table of Contents What Is Swing Trading?

Testing Results Trade Entry Trade Exit The Setup Results Closing Position Encyclopedia of Candlestick Charts Thinking of buying this encyclopedia? Read this. Before I get to the slick marketing message, let me give you a few examples of how I use the information in my Encyclopedia of Candlestick Charts book. Imagine that price has been trending
upward for 5 bars and you see a bearish engulfing candle pattern. Looking up the candle in the book, you read that it acts as a bearish reversal 79% of the time (page 308), and that 74% of the time (page 312) price reaches its price target (the height of the candle projected downward). If you then see price begin to falter, like it is thinking of
reversing, you can exit the trade ahead of everyone else. Before I make a trade, I look at the probability of the candle acting as a reversal or continuation, and how far price can be expected to move once I am in the trade (based on the candle height). That information is in my book, and it is well worth the cost of it. Let me give you another example.
For Apple stock (AAPL) on November 13, 2007, I found an above the stomach candle. The book says (page 89) that the candle acts as a bullish reversal 66% of the time. The upward target is 183.39 with a 61% probability of reaching 191.33 (page 93). A downward target is 139.84 with a 53% probability of reaching 130.28. The current close is 169.96.
After a bumpy start, the stock moved up in a straight-line run to 187.70 on November 30, 2007 before pausing for a few days. That is the kind of information you can get from my book, and that is how I put it to good use. It gives me an edge over other traders that do not have such information. In short, it helps me make money. Here is the slick
marketing message: Candlestick patterns are footprints of the smart money and deciphering those footprints properly can bring traders and investors riches. Encyclopedia of Candlestick Charts takes an in-depth look at 103 candlesticks, from identification guidelines, to statistical analysis of their behavior, to detailed trading tactics. Never before has
a book combined a comprehensive list of candlesticks with a statistical review of their performance...until now. This easy to read and use reference book follows the same format as the best-selling Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns. In each chapter of Encyclopedia of Candlestick Charts you'll find: Behavior and Rank shows how each candle is
theoretically supposed to work and how it actually does, with rankings against other candlesticks plus the psychology behind the pattern. Identification Guidelines describe what to look for. Statistics include the following tables: general statistics, height statistics, volume stats, reversal rates, and performance indicators. Trading Tactics discuss
strategies to increase profits and minimize risk Sample Trade walks you through a hypothetical or actual trade using real data. For Best Performance is a quick reference table of selection tips to boost performance Encyclopedia of Candlestick Charts also includes chapters covering important findings, a statistics summary, glossary/methodology, and
a visual index to make candlestick identification easy. Endorsements (from the book cover): "Great research, great organization, and a wealth of information. Not only does Tom identify the best formations, he shows the practical way to trade each one. And, he puts the best results right in front, rather than playing hide-and-seek with the reader. You
don't need to be a chartist to get value from this book. I highly recommend it." -- Perry Kaufman, author of New Trading Systems and Methods, Fourth Edition "Man cannot live on bread alone, and according to Tom Bulkowski's research, one cannot trade by candlesticks alone. Tom's intensive statistical work seeks out the truth in the frequency and
reliability of trading with candlestick charts. His exhaustive and thorough research will give the reader an eye opener to help guide them in their trading decisions. This is a must-read edition of a high-caliber piece of trading literature for every trader who uses candlecharts." -- John Person, author of Candlestick and Pivot Point Trading Triggers and
President of Nationalfutures.com. "When I wrote the Third Edition of Candlestick Charting Explained, I believed I had thoroughly covered every aspect of this respectable analysis technique. Tom has written a solid reference that can easily be used in coordination with other books in this exciting field. The Encyclopedia of Candlestick Charts is a
reference that every technical analyst will want to own." -- Gregory L. Morris, Senior Portfolio Manager, PMFM, Inc, and author of Candlestick charting explained, third edition and The Complete Guide to Market Breadth Indicators.

and reference book (mostly reference). This book was named “The best investment book of the year” by Stock Trader's Almanac 2003 (see page 94 of that book). Trading Classic Chart Patterns has been cited in Candlesticks, Fibonacci, and Chart Pattern Trading Tools by Robert Fischer and Jens Fischer (Wiley 2003, pages 88-89). Translations into
Simplified Chinese and German are pending. In his follow-up to the well-received Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns, Thomas Bulkowski gives traders a practical game plan to capitalize on established chart patterns. Written for the novice investor but with techniques for the professional, Trading Classic Chart Patterns includes easy-to-use performance
tables, vivid case studies, and a scoring system that makes trading chart patterns simple. This comprehensive guide skillfully gives investors straightforward solutions to profitably trading chart patterns. Trading Classic Chart Patterns also serves as a handy reference guide for favorite chart patterns, including broadening tops, head-and-shoulders,
rectangles, triangles, and double and triple bottoms. Filled with numerous techniques, strategies, and insights, Trading Classic Chart Patterns fits perfectly into any pattern trader's arsenal. From the Inside Flap From the author of the Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns comes his latest work, Trading Classic Chart Patterns, a groundbreaking primer on
how to trade the most popular stock patterns. Written for the novice investor but containing techniques for the seasoned professional, this comprehensive guide includes easy-to-use performance tables supported by statistical research. By using a simple scoring system, you'll learn how to predict the performance of a chart pattern almost by looking
at it. If you're new to chart patterns, technical analysis, or to stock market investing itself, the "Getting Started" section provides new ideas on trendlines, support and resistance, placing stops, and avoiding common investment mistakes. As your trading knowledge and experience increase, the "Trading Classic Chart Patterns" section will serve as a
handy reference guide for your favorite chart patterns, including broadening tops, head-and-shoulders, rectangles, triangles, and triple tops and bottoms. You'll quickly learn about the Adam-and-Eve combinations of double tops and bottoms, and how to select the best performers while avoiding the losers. You'll discover: How to use the price trend
leading to a chart pattern as a gauge of future performance Why breakout gaps often improve performance-but by less than you think How tall formations perform substantially better than short ones What a partial decline is and how to buy in early for a larger profit Whether high breakout volume really improves performance How to identify
horizontal consolidation regions that may stop prices dead in their tracks A new tool, called the horizon failure rate, to assess performance over time The scoring system makes trading chart patterns simple. Use the performance tables to score your stock pattern, then add up the scores. If they total above zero, the stock is an investment candidate; if
they are below zero, you'll know to avoid that particular stock. It's that easy! Trading Classic Chart Patterns is a trader's reference that's destined to become a classic. This book is an invaluable resource that provides the obvious answer-Yes!-for every investor who has wondered if trading chart patterns can be profitable. Endorsements (from the book
cover): "No one -- not even the pioneers of technical analysis like Dow, Schabacker, Edwards, and Magee -- has ever published such an in-depth and objective research on chart patterns as Thomas Bulkowski has in his Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns and his new book, Trading Classic Chart Patterns. Bulkowski sees farther, not only because he stands
on the shoulders of those giants, but also because he has the creativity necessary to develop new methods of quantifying the performance of chart patterns and the tenacity required to carry out the laborious research. Highly recommended!" -- Thomas A. Bierovic, author Playing for Keeps in Stocks & Futures: Three Top Trading Strategies That
Consistently Beat the Markets Book Corrections The publisher corrects the books as new printings occur (in theory). If you find a mistake, then contact me, Tom Bulkowski. The following figures have incorrect figure references. For example, Figure 1.18 refers to figures in chapter 2 when it should refer to chapter 1. Here's a list of the figures that
need correction: 1.18, 2.18, 3.20, 4.23, 5.18, 6.15, 8.14, 9.20, 10.15, 15.21, 17.10, 18.10, 22.24, 23.26, 24.21 Page 11: Change "chart patterns" to "candlesticks" in the first paragraph, second sentence: "The percentage of chart patterns with breakouts within a third of the designated..." should read, "The percentage of candlesticks with breakouts

Find: "Gaps in an uptrend (rising window): Price finds overhead resistance" and replace with: "Gaps in an uptrend (rising window): Price finds underlying support" In the last paragraph, find, "Gaps in a downtrend

Change the sentence to read, 'Look for light breakout volume but do not discard an EADB just because the breakout occurs on above-average volume.'

'below' to 'above.' Page 253, in Average formation length, change "a month" to 2 months. Page 268, in Formation end to breakout. Change "Measured from the left bottom" to "Measured from the right bottom" Page 347, Text for the example says the win/loss ratio is 4.75 to 1 but it's actually less because of the entry price (the bottom of the flag). That
lowers the profit potential and raises the risk, so the ratio is narrower. If you forget about the ratio, the method of calculating a price target (the measure rule) is correct.
