barchart is free and simple with a pretty cool feature called flip charts
Commodity, stock, forex price quotes, charts, and technical analysis.

you can email him at the address below. it took a few days to get a response, but it is well worth the wait. The sections on supply/demand and price/volume are 'priceless.' good luck!

it's like a giant ponzi scheme perpetuated by the gov't and fed bailouts

I try to jump on my schwinn airdyne 2-3 times a week. it's a great all-around full-body exercise. i like it cause i don't have to mess with weights or different routines, like the P90X that my son uses. so if you're looking for something simple and effective, check it out

This is one of the books most recommended by some of the biggest names in trading. Masters of the craft. If they told me Spongebob Squarepants could help take my trading to the next level I would be flipping to Nickelodeon faster than you could say...Spongebob Squarepants.I would say read it, draw your own conclusions, then give your opinions on the book here. You might think it's the worst book ever written about trading. You might think it's one of the best. But the opinion would be yours.
I think it's one of the best books I've read..trading related or not.. In a list of about 10. Not only do I like Jessee Livermore, warts and all, I like the idea of Livermore. I like him standing in front of his mansions in photo's. I like him in the bucketshops outsmarting them. I like him making millions. I like him going broke. Let's face it, he's iconic. He doesn't need to be honest. He doesn't need to be pure. He doesn't need to be anything to anybody. I'm not sure why anyone needs him to be.
I'm currently reading a book called Wolf on Wall Street. In the first 5 pages this guy is high on drugs and flying a helicopter into the ground. Like it or not, Wall Street is the wild west. It's not pretty (well it is shiny) and it's not sending out any appology letters. And that's how I see Livermore.
It's an adult story. About an adult topic. Let us know what you think.
will do. just finished Tape reading and market tactics by Humphrey; it was ok. Currently reading Techniques of Tape reading by Graifer and DbPhoenix's ebook, both of which are excellent :-)

hello folks. total noob here- you guys are all gurus in my eyes! still reading, absorbing information & trying to put together a system before paper trading (stocks) in a couple of months. i've decided to start my 16 y.o. son on the adventure with me. even though i've read more than him, he seems to understand the concepts better (it's funny how the kids run circles around me). we're focused right now on candlesticks, chart patterns and price/volume. so much to learn!

that's a mighty long list. good thing i'm stuck on number one ;-)

synthesizers, photography, math tutoring, foosball, dreamcast & now technical analysis

hmm, this was on my short list of future books to read, but after reading all these comments i think i'll move it to the end of the list. i appreciate all the intelligent responses; i'm glad i joined this forum :-)

i read that insiders can hide volume by using something called 'dark pools.' what exactly are dark pools, and how do we counter this trick? Thanks
