Description

Successful Stock Signals for Traders and Portfolio Managers lets you combine technical analysis and fundamental analysis using existing technical signals to improve your investing performance. The only purpose of this book is to help you improve your performance in the stock market using technical analysis as step 1 and fundamentals as step 2. Our approach will always seek to make the book a “mountain climber” because learning to invest and trade stocks is an adventure. Any book on the subject should be exciting and challenging.

These qualities are appreciated by every audience, whether professional, educational, small investor, or trader. To accomplish this ambitious objective we will always subordinate the instructions on esoteric technical signals to the more fascinating discussions of individual stocks, and how technical analysis signals would have enhanced your gains in trading or investing in the market using fundamentals.

  2. Andy Heath (verified owner)

    Very interesting table of contents and discussions throughout the book.
    Putting it on my book list and it will be part of my library.

  3. Evelynn Kane (verified owner)

    Excellent examples and plenty of charts make this book a classic for traders and investors. I read it cover to cover.

  4. Alberto Caldwell (verified owner)

    Ok reading. In the end, I felt like it was just copy and paste dribble. I wouldn’t recommend it to a friend.

  5. Aleah Cameron (verified owner)

    I started to dive head first into stocks this year. As a result I quickly realized I was well in over my head. Hence the book… I am still reading it but have learned a lot in a little bit of time. Mainly it has saved me from making costly mistakes.

    Don’t buy another “Bargain Stock” that is just a dying dog. Successful Stock Signals for Traders and Portfolio Managers tells you how. This book explains the basics of technical analysis in a way that even laymen like me can understand. But, T. K. Lloyd’s book does not stop there. This gold mine of technical information is then filtered through a straightforward process of fundamental stock analysis to yield a winning strategy for buy, hold and sell.

    For every dollar made on the stock market there is a dollar lost. For every winner there is a loser. Be a winner. Buy this book.

    I started attending the Massapequa Traders Meetup about 8 months ago, and was very impressed with the organizer Tom Lloyd. When he mentioned that he wrote a book, I decided to buy it.

    Reading this book helped me develop a much deeper understanding of technical analysis. He uses the case study method to teach how to use the weight of evidence to determine buy and sell signals using technical indicators along with moving averages, candlesticks and chart patterns. I found myself able to use various charting systems to apply what I learned. This has been a breakthrough for me in reading and understanding charts. His wealth of experience as a portfolio manager, CPA and teacher combine to make this such a comprehensive and intriguing book.

    If possible, I suggest attending his meet ups as they are very informative, as he is a great presenter and extremely knowledgable.

    Simply a must read book for anyone interested in learning how to invest in stocks successfully. Powerful, yet simple insights and rules of engagement that will increase your profitability in the market. The book clearly pointed out many solutions to problems I had in driving my profitability in line with my goals, such as – avoiding risky investments and better entry and exit points for each of my positions. Not just a book of words, but extremely helpful charts throughout that book that shows you critical signals and how to read and understand the most useful and vital technical stock signals. It’s the first book that I can honestly tell you I have read that have altered my approach to investing. I am more confident that when I enter a trade I have enhanced the probability of success and also know when to make a quick exit if necessary. I have already made better trades and eliminated positions that have not achieved my expectations for more opportunistic trades. Gaining knowledge of how the professional traders and portfolio managers think has now leveled the playing field for my personal investing.

    If you read only one book, make sure this is the ONE you read! It’s a Home Run and I am looking forward to the sequel.

    Although this book was written in a decade ago, the knowledge it presented still works. However, if the quoted charts can be shown in various colors especially multi-technical lines are shown together in a single chart,, then it will be easily to read. A good read book!

  10. Luciano Tanner (verified owner)

    Interesting stories but I would have liked more explanations

    FINALLY, a practical book that shows you how to pick 10 good stocks that beat the index!

    This book finally provides the investor with the information to be on a level playing field with the traders on the street. Not only does it show you the best point to buy (i.e., the buy signals) but it also guides you as to when to sell using sell signals in technical analysis. Knowing when to buy & sell…that’s the difference to better returns.

    Some brokers say technicals are for traders. BALONEY! I have improved every stock return I have based on this book. And I have avoided buying stocks that were too overbought. It gives you another edge over the typical investor.

    A picture says a thousand words, Lloyd teaches you in a case study format, how to look at a stock chart and immediately determine whether “the picture” (i.e., the stock chart) is worth further research into fundamentals, as well as what other buy signals are present.

    After reading this book, you will know why the street is saying the market is “frothy” because you can see it in the SPY chart. You will see when money starts pouring out of a stock on the Chaikin money flow chart. Based on these valuable bits of information, you can plan your investments and trades before you hear it from the talking heads on CNBC.

    You will find yourself saying before every buy, -Does the chart look good?

    The really nice thing about this book is that since each chapter is a separate company case study, you feel as though after the first company is analyzed, you have learned the basics of technical analysis enough to immediately apply it to review your own portfolio’s stocks. Each chapter builds on the previous chapter, teaching more buy and sell signals.

    If you are putting money in the market, this book is REQUIRED READING.
    Happy investing.

    This is a really good book on how to use charts to pick stocks. I ‘ve read at least eight books on technical analysis, and studied several intensively including two editions of Edwards and Magee heavily underlined and marked, two by Murphy, Bollinger, etc as well as many other investment books including classics from pre-1929. This book is absolutely the clearest and easiest to read and use book on investment and technical analysis I’ve read. Reading it is like turning on a light and dispelling the shadows.

    Chapters are short, 15 to 20 pages, focused around a several year period of time in one well-known stock, such as Apple or Google. They offer a few easy to use indicators or “signals” applied to following the ups and downs in that stock– for example, moving averages. Chapter 1 shows you how moving averages would have told you when to buy, hold or sell AAPL for large profits over an extended period of time. Explains why, for a stock like AAPL, it’s safe to “buy on weakness”, and how to do it. The presentation leaves to you eager to apply it to your own stocks .

    There’s power in the simplicity and brevity. You understand what, understand why, and feel confident that you *see* supply and demand in the signals he recommends and can apply them for your purposes, whether trading or long-term investor..

    You can read one chapter and begin to apply it right away, then lay the book it aside, read another chapter next week or next month. You don’t have to crash thru to the end to be able to use each piece. Each point is presented in terms of supply and demand created by fund managers or other investor classes explained in a few sentences, so you know why the signal works.

    All chart books are expensive because of the detailed figures required to illustrate the points. $60 is a lot of money for a book, but you can lose far more than that in a single day on a small account if you make a mistake in the stock market. This book will help you avoid costly mistakes. I believe it is suitable for the novice as well as more experienced investors who are trying to improve their results. You won’t regret buying it.
