    at KNIGHT TRADER BLOG wrote a review of MY BOOK.

    Here is an excerpt
    “Brian Shannon’s book technical analysis through multiple time frames is a modern day version of Stan Weinstein’s trading principles applied to 21st Century technology. Brian takes difficult technical analysis concepts and explains them in a way that makes them easy to understand and comprehend.”

    Read the entire review HERE and be sure to check his blog each day for trading ideas.

    I’m still having difficulties with getting recordings done on my new computer, but here are some stocks I will be looking at during the first couple days of the coming trading week. Again, these are just what appear to be low risk/ high potential profit setups, they are not recommendations. There is still a lot of opportunity in many of the volatile shipping and solar plays for aggressive intraday traders.

  • 10 Questions

    Charles Kirk recently reviewed my book and he asked me to answer 10 questions that he had after reading it. You can find the Q&A ON HIS SITE Charles is truly a class act and one of the original blogs which inspired me to start one of my own. I doubt that anyone who reads this blog is unfamiliar with the Kirk Report, but if you are not, then be sure to visit regularly. Thanks Charles!

    Not many traders, and fewer authors, truly understand the psychology behind charts, but Brian has a special talent to explain that through his insights born not from theory, but battle tested experience and successful trading—this is rare. Most technical analysis books focus on pattern recognition, but this book explains WHY markets move and HOW patterns form as a result, and without this understanding it is impossible to see deeper into the charts where the real value exists—this most excellent aggregation of insights takes you deep, real deep, into the heart of the matter where profitability exists. Brian’s book is an instant classic.

    will be available on Friday



    Brian stresses the two keys to successful trading — discipline and finding a trading style that suits your style and personality. Without those two concepts, most traders fail. With that in mind, this book has several excellent technical analysis systems, but the chapter on Risk Management is really the key. All traders should find this book to be useful and rewarding.

    One of the first reviews, more details this week.

    I always believed Brian Shannon had the “Right Stuff.”
    Whether it was his stock picks, his eclectic blog posts or when he would shower us with his market intelligence in our chatroom. Now comes his outstanding book, “Technical Analysis using Multiple Timeframes.”
    This is a subject that is very dear to me and I practice it every day in our own firm proprietary trading. You might say, and in a way, Brian and I are kindred spirits.
    But, I must call this masterpiece a true Grand Slam. This book is a MUST READ for all HIGH ALPHA Traders.
    As always, great job well done, Brian !
    All the best;
