Originally published in 1935, Profits in the Stock Market by H.M. Gartley is one of the most influential and foundational works in modern technical analysis. This legendary volume introduced many of the core principles that later shaped the Dow Theory, Fibonacci analysis, and harmonic trading patterns known today as the “Gartley Patterns.” Written during the formative years of market speculation, the book delivers a comprehensive roadmap for understanding market behavior through price charts, averages, volume, and investor psychology.
Gartley meticulously explains how trends evolve in stages—long-term, intermediate, and minor—and how each can be identified through chart studies and price formations. With over 430 pages and numerous hand-drawn charts, it stands as a monumental reference for traders seeking to master market timing, recognize reversals, and anticipate momentum changes.
Unlike most books of its era, Gartley’s work bridges theory with practice. He demonstrates how to analyze supply-demand zones, trendlines, triangles, moving averages, and gaps—tools that remain indispensable to professional traders. Even decades later, his insights remain relevant to those aiming to read markets through structure and rhythm rather than emotion or speculation. Profits in the Stock Market is not only a trading manual but a timeless guide to disciplined technical interpretation.

This is a classic trading book with extensive studies of the markets during the depression. It takes a long time to work through all the material, there are other books on the market that are updated.

Harold McKinley Gartley had a stock market advisory service in the mid-1930s that had a large public following. This service was one of the first to apply “scientific” methods and research to resolution of the stock market problems: 1)what to buy; and 2) when to buy. This correspondence course is a summarization of Gartley’s findings through 1936. The original course was issued looseleaf, in a green, three-ring binder. Lambert-Gann, Inc. has reissued this course in a more convenient book-format along with a separate package of oversized charts for easy reference against the textual explanations.

If you are a serious investor/trader then this book is for you. Though the primary focus is technical analysis, Mr. Gartley explains the importance of fundamental analysis and the psychological affects that affect the decision-process as well. He explains that you cannot have one without the other if you are a serious investor and you must have all the tools at your disposal if you are going to be successful in the business of investing. The emphasis is technical in nature but very fundamental in utilization of all tools necessary to becoming a successful in the business of investing. Remember investing is not a game, gambling, or hobby. Investing is a Business. If you are in the business of investing, this book is for you.

This is one of the best books I have ever read about technical analysis. Although the charts aren’t what you would call ‘contemporary’ (the 30s and back) the wisdom in it still lives today. It’s a Complete Course, which used to be sold by chapters, but now, bound in a single book you’ll be able to read all there is to it. The law of supply and demand hasn’t changed that much ever since, just the participants in the markets. With all the knowledge within the book you’ll get a series of accompaning charts to help you in your study that show in a nostalgic, although informative way, how to build a trend following system. The trading style devised will be greatly appreciated by everyone who knows the virtues of patience on trading – waiting for the ideal timing with high probability of sucess. Buy this one and you’re trading is almost guaranteed to improve.
