H. Tam, a noted pioneer in exploring the Japanese candlestick methodology</li> <li>Ideal for anyone who wants to invest or trade in both the futures and stock markets</li> <li>Includes hundreds of illustrated charts</li> </ul> The Power of Japanese Candlestick Charts is a comprehensive and valuable guide to candlestick charting that is perfect for analysts, stock or day traders, and short-term position traders.

With hundreds of illustrated charts taken from leading international companies, currencies, and commodities, noted author and futures trading expert Fred Tam demonstrates the predictive power of candlestick charting signals and how to properly integrate them with proven Western technical analysis techniques to maximize returns in any market.
