Ted Warren’s “How to Make the Stock Market Make Money for You” is one of the most unconventional and insightful market books ever written. Far from the mainstream advice of Wall Street strategists, Warren’s approach reveals how the smart money accumulates positions while the public sells in despair — and how patient, informed investors can profit from these long-range moves.
Warren, a self-taught trader who rose from a working-class background to financial independence, exposes the fallacies of popular trading systems and advisory services. He explains why most investors lose money — not because of lack of intelligence, but because they follow crowd behavior instead of recognizing chart patterns that signal professional accumulation.
Through detailed explanations, real-world examples, and hand-drawn charts, he shows how to identify low-price base formations, false support levels, and bottoming patterns that precede major uptrends. Warren also covers practical tools such as trendlines, volume interpretation, margin use, and stock splits, culminating in his powerful philosophy of letting the market “make money for you” — by aligning with its natural rhythm instead of fighting it.
For traders studying long-term accumulation, investor psychology, and price structure, this classic work remains a cornerstone — inspiring both Wyckoff-style technical readers and modern price-action analysts alike.
✅ What You’ll Learn:
- How to identify stock bases and consolidation zones before big uptrends begin.
- Why head-and-shoulders bottoms and false breakdowns can signal reversals.
- How to interpret volume spikes and trendline breaks for timing entries.
- The truth about short selling, stock splits, and buying on margin.
- The role of patience and contrarian psychology in long-term success.
- Differences between fundamentalists and chartists, and why most fail.
- Ted Warren’s philosophy of buying in lower ranges and holding for years.
💡 Key Benefits:
- Learn a contrarian, accumulation-based strategy still valid decades later.
- Gain confidence by understanding how professionals manipulate prices.
- Avoid the emotional traps that ruin most investors.
- Develop a mindset for long-term compounding rather than quick profits.

The first edition of this book was completely bought up and presumably destroyed, as the information contained is so dangerous to the powers that rock Wall Street. Read it carefully. It is simple to understand, and then apply it. You do not have to wait until the market itself is down, anytime at all is always good if you do what he tells you to do.
If you are already invested, then get this book and never worry again when the market goes into a sell-off.

THE GOOD NEWS–
At least, the book is an entertaining read. It is _valuable_ to learn how to get “The Stock Picture” (from M. C. Horsey Co., Salisbury Md, 410-742-3700.. but the benefit stops there.
WHAT THE BOOK PROMISES–
Ted Warren implies that most stock prices are manipulated by insiders to bilk the public out of investment dollars. If an investor can recognize the patterns, so the thinking goes, s/he can pick out stocks that have been manipulated to a low level, and know how to sell when they are at their peak.
IT DIDN’T WORK FOR ME–
–I studied the book, and got a May 2000 Edition of The Stock Picture. Using Ted’s techniques, I picked out 30 likely stocks, but didn’t buy them. I saved my list, waited a year, then evaluated my picks with the May 2001 Stock Picture. Not one of my picks had become profitable, at any time, in that year.
WHY DID IT FAIL FOR ME?
The Stock Picture includes a chart of the Dow Jones Avg from 1938 to present. From 1957 to 1965, when the author was making money and writing the book, the Dow increased from 416 to 1001, ie., it increased by 2.5 times. From 1993 to 2001, it went from about 4000 to 10,000, again an increase of 2.5 times. The difference is, that from about 1996 to 2001, the DOW has been wildly fluctuating, as never before. Since 1999, the upward momentum has been broken–You can see it plainly in the MC Horsey chart. We are in a volatile, unstable losers market. Ted was in a relatively stable, upward trending market. He couldn’t go far wrong in 57-65. We can’t go right, using the same techniques, today. But, after the next great depression, it may be useful again…

Ted methods truly work. I use his methods to buy and sell stocks. At first I thought this guy must be crazy, but I was wrong. This is not a get rich quick scheme. It is not uncommon to gain 300% or more in a two to three year period. Read this book, follow the principles and you will make money.

Have read a TW book twice in life… in college and failed to see the wisdom… and this book about 5 years ago. Tried my best to learn and also followed a newsletter dedicated to TW market strategies. Three years ago portfolio account started and traded buying at TW breakout points and not before(equal shares in each holding), cutting losses on all stocks that did not follow through after breaking out…letting the others ride. The results as of today: current long 6 stocks up 3%, 103%,196%, 292%,323%,& 1074%. It is not get rich quick, but it does work. Up almost 11 times your money is nice but it is time to let this one go…check 3 year chart on OHB! Judge for yourself!

wow some of the reviews are crazy. this book isn’t about trendlines and triangles this book is about the psychology of the market and how to profit from it. no wonder some of you got nothing from it. this is the most enlightening book on stocks or futures i’ve ever read, the markets made sense after reading it.

Not fully through it yet. But it explains a lot. I’m wondering if our current market applies, but will continue to study and find out.

I won’t go into detail because I don’t feel the need to try and convince someone why it works. I’m making money using Ted’s methods and that’s all I care about. You will not understand the book if you aren’t an experienced trader. However, if you aren’t open-minded, it won’t matter how experienced you are. If you actually learn Ted’s method, you can make enough in the LONG RUN to retire quite happily.

For those people who didn’t give Ted Warren a minimum of 4 stars, they’re either part of the disinformation agents out on the internet that are running rampant as part of damage control to send people away from the real truths out there, or they’re clueless and never traded.

I have not completely read the book. However, there are concepts in the book that shed light as to how the stock market really works. That insight will help you to understand how you should trade. There are sections which may not be applicable today because of the enormous volume generated today due to technology and high frequency trading.

Ted Warren was not afraid to tell the story behind the manipulation of stock prices. He makes a convincing case and provides numerous examples. He is a bit “wordy” and the book is a bit long for the points he’s making. Also, with the faster momentum of today’s market, his timing suggestions may be too long. However, the same principles apply today as to the markets in his day. You just have to adjust your time frames. You can learn some very practical principles from him.

This is a very good book, easy to read. It took longer to receive than I expected. But the wait has been worth it.

This book if you study can make you a lot of money. I make 12,000 dollars on a 2000 investment on a stock called goldfield gv, it had a long 10 year base that I followed for a few years, the trick is holding on for the rise. You can not be a rush which in our world of fast paced 21 century is not easy, simple but not easy. If you study the simple long term charts you can do very well in the stock market.
