I don't want to give the impression there is no value in Bulkowski's
book or in the chart patterns it lists.
If I didn't believe in the significance of patterns I wouldn't
bother with TA.
There are patterns in Bulkowski's encyclopedia worth testing.
It is just that I don't get excited about it because it is a normal
day in the office for me.
I also have a big backlog of promising work waiting for analysis and
testing; all of the patterns are in that queue.
I also use Colby's Encyclopedia of Technical Indicators.
Those two books are my bread and butter reference manuals.
I am waiting on Katz and McCormicks Encyclopedia of Trading
Strategies to complete the set.
They are not the be all and end all but they do provide a solid
foundation.
