Well Worth It April 24, 2008
Destiny Z. Fitzgerald (Canada)
Well worth the price and the read. Very technical and precise. You'll need to read it at least twice but the rewards are astronomical: you'll actually begin to understand how to invest with knowledge (not fear) in the game of the stock market.
 Honest effort, but badly written for target audienmce June 12, 2006

First of all, the writing style. Larson's writing style is easy to follow, but the book itself is badly edited, with lots of padding. For example, we learn on P.69 about the 25 day DMA and two pages later the 200 DMA is presented. I had hoped for a better discussion of TC2000's proprietary indicators, MS, TSV and BOP, but the book presents a rehash of the documentation supplied with the software.
More important is the book's target audience. Don't even bother buying this book uless you intend to use Worden's TC2000 charting software. All discussions, indicators and charts are explained using this software as reference. On the other hand, if you have this software, you presumably already have a good understanding of the standard and proprietary indicators supplied with the package, and don't need lengthy tutorials on moving averages and relative strength. In this respect, the book's audience is unclear.
For me, what the book missed was material for the advanced TC2000 user, such as using the software's scanning and programming language capabilities. I assume that Larson himself is an advanced TC2000 user, it would have been nice if he had included some trading strategies making use of the software's advanced capabilities.
Sadly, all this is missing.

Mark has written & spoken of his years of successful trading to thousands across the United States & other countries. I have known him for several years & consider him a sincere giver who is willing to help anyone who is interested in improving their investment skills.
Mark not only can talk the talk BUT he truly can walk the walk. He is proud to display his investment portfolio & does so in many of his investment classes. May God continue to Bless Mark & his family.

A very helpful insight into some of the most commonly used technical indicators for market and individual security price trends. The book offers good explanation of what each indicator is designed to measure and how some of the indicators are used together. Concise, easy to understand and apply---a good resource for anyone investing in paper assests.
THIS BOOK WAS EXTREMELY HELPFUL ESPECIALLY WITH PARALYSIS ANALYSIS IN TRADING OPTIONS. March 25, 2006
