Written by the master of the craft, John Magee, An Introduction to Magee's System of Technical Analysis presents a methodology and philosophy for stock market decision making that he not only developed but that he practiced as an investment advisor for 45 odd years. Co-author of the bestselling Technical Analysis of Stock Trends, now in its eighth edition, Magee gives you a concise guide that reveals time-tested approaches for using technical analysis. You will learn how to make or save thousands of dollars, spot and stay on top of trends, time buy and sell decisions, minimize risks and boost investment profits, construct charts, and spot profitable chart patterns.

Editor/co-author, W.H.C. Bassetti prepares you for the continued study of the concepts and tools developed based on Magee's theories.
