Positive Review of Book Beyond Candlesticks

Steve Nison goes through all of the major Candlestick patterns here. And, he shows you close calls as well. This is great, because the real world does not always have what is in the pretty picture in your book. Nison adds to the value by showing you how to use Candlesticks in conjunction with classic Western Technical analysis. If only he'd added a chapter on Elliott Wave Theory and Candlesticks (lots of reversal Candles at the end of waves). Buy this one instead of his first book if you are only buying one.
