Forty-Five Years in Wall Street

Positive Review of Book

There are many new comers in the investing and trading business try to tell you how to nowadays. Gann has done it 50 and 100 years ago. He wrote down his experience and knowledge that every trader and investor should know in a clear and concise language. He is the master. Get to know him and his books first before you learn from anyone else.

Negative Review of Book

This book is extremely boring. It has time series descriptions as: Monday 10.8, Tuesday 9.5, Wednesday 9.7, Thursday 10.2, Friday holiday etc... that could be better presented by a chart. Also his 3 point rule is poorly described. The paper quality is also poor. Only the first chapter is interesting because of the rules (some advice) that you can read cheaply on one of the book reviews. Overall, boring, tedious, expensive and not very informative.
