"Twenty-nine years ago, Jerry and I wrote a stock market book together. He's still going at it, and once again, he's come up with a very rewarding and profitable book on stocks. I have been reading Jerry's market letter since the early 1970s and he's done a great job while keeping risk to a minimum. I am also familiar with his track record of running "real" money. Again, risk-adjusted, the returns have been very solid. I highly recommend this 'no nonsense' book." - Marty Zweig. "Gerald Appel has no peer in the practice of technical analysis. Not only has he made groundbreaking analytical contributions to the field, but Jerry has used the same trading methods to become one of the most successful money managers on Wall Street. In this masterly text, Gerry shares his favourite timing indicators and strategies, distilled from a more than 30-year career at the top of his profession." - Nelson Freeburg, Editor, "Formula Research". "Experienced investors or beginners should not be without it. Appel draws on over 30 years of experience as an active money manager and publisher of his highly regarded newsletter, "Systems and Forecasts". I can't recommend it enough." - Dan Sullivan, Publisher and Editor of "The Chartist Newsletter". "In "Technical Analysis", the inventor of MACD, Jerry Appel, provides a crash course in timing and beating the market. Appel opens his bag-of- tricks and teaches investors the skills to handle their own portfolios like a pro. Included is a comprehensive chapter on his MACD Indicator, arguably one of the most reliable market timing gauges. MACD-timing triples the results of our "Best Six Months" switching strategy! A must- read for do-it-yourself investors and traders of all sizes." - Jeffrey A. Hirsch, Editor, "Stock Trader's Almanac". "Over the years I have seen gurus come and go, but Gerald Appel has been steady over 30 years. For serious market students, this book contains useful and practical power tools for making money and cutting losses." -
