$37.40
Charting the Major Forex Pairs: Focus on Major Currencies by James Lauren Bickford and Michael D. Archer is a practical and visually rich guide for traders seeking to master the structure and behavior of the world’s most traded currency pairs. As an extension of their earlier work on technical visualization, this book focuses on the unique chart characteristics, volatility patterns, and trading personalities of each major currency pair—including EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, USD/CHF, AUD/USD, and USD/CAD.
Bickford and Archer take readers deep into the visual dynamics of forex markets, emphasizing that each pair has its own rhythm, volatility cycles, and technical “signature.” Using hundreds of annotated charts and historical studies, they reveal how price movement patterns evolve based on fundamental forces such as interest rates, geopolitical sentiment, and global liquidity shifts.
The authors teach traders how to identify recurring formations—trend continuations, reversals, breakout traps, and consolidation structures—within specific pairs, making it easier to anticipate behavior and manage trades effectively. Practical sections on support and resistance mapping, pivot zones, and trendline confluence help readers interpret price action in real time, while case studies demonstrate how different pairs react under news shocks and macroeconomic shifts.
What sets this book apart is its pair-specific approach. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all trading system, Bickford and Archer show that each pair demands a customized strategy aligned with its behavioral DNA. From the high momentum of GBP/USD to the stability of USD/CHF, readers learn to recognize which setups are more likely to succeed for each currency context.
Deeply grounded in technical precision and trader psychology, this book helps readers refine their analytical vision and adapt to market diversity with confidence. Whether you are a developing forex trader or an experienced technician, Charting the Major Forex Pairs offers a clear, disciplined path to understanding the subtleties of currency behavior and improving your edge through the art of visual analysis.

Waste of money on my part

I wish I had read the review by who stated that it was totally worthless. I agree. It is almost a crime to ask money for something like this – but maybe even more a sign of stupidity to buy.

I got this book some time ago now and at the time i had not read many books on the subject of technical analysis or trading in general. I was demo trading forex and doing ok and wanted to have a greater insight into the forex world.
I remember thinking it wasn’t a good book at the time and left it on the book shelf, i didn’t want to post anything at the time as i hadn’t really read any other books on the subject and couldn’t readily compare this book. I recently came back across the book and decided to read it once again and give it a second chance. I now feel disgusted that this book (if that’s what you want to call it) is even still being sold.
It took about 1 hour to read the 220 pages of rubish information and even worse charts that are of poor picture quality and take up at least half of the pages.I know this is a book about charting and so expected there to be alot of charts, but the charts look like they have been copy and pasted and poorly fit to the pages they are on with little information to what they are showing or their significance. There are very basic history summeries of each of the popular currencies, with poor quality pictures of the actual currency notes and coins. There is very little actual information to be had from this dire excuse for a book.
