Zakamulin’s book, Market Timing with Moving Averages, on the calculation and use of moving averages in the timing of investment transactions is unquestionably the most valuable description and summary available today of a method frequently used but poorly understood. Because moving averages are such an important component of so many technical indicators, trading and investment students, irrespective of their expertise, should read and own this book.

If you are looking for a very detailed analysis of the application of moving averages as buy/sell indicators for broad equity market indices, bond markets and/or commodities then this book should be at the top of the list. The author provides a comprehensive analysis of all the considerations that one must make when designing backtests and forward tests. For me, this book will serve as a reference in the future. Many of the issues a trader has to consider when constructing an analysis of a technical trading rule including how to compare performances for different parameters are very well covered by Zakamulin.

Among hundreds of books always repeating the same concepts, this book provides an extremely original and rigorous analysis of different types of moving averages and their applications to trading. Very recommended!

This is the most comprehensive book on moving averages that I have read. I found it insightful and it added to my knowledge of moving averages. It quantifies what anyone that’s already using moving averages likely already knows. If you know little about moving averages this may not be the book for you, but if you are knowledgeable about moving averages and want to learn more, this book is for you. Happy Trading!
