Read this book if you practice trend following & want to hone up your entries.
You may shortlist winning stocks, identify patterns but when and where to enter remains one of the toughest parts.
Pay full attention to exercises and study those charts meticulously.

These are long term Moving Averages, which in my view are irrelevant for short term positional trades.
For my trading strategy, 13-day & 22-day EMAs are more suitable.
If SmallCap dips below these MAs & they get into the bearish sync, I get cautious & reduce my position size.

Read everything written on Wyckoff, Livermore and written by Wyckoff, Livermore.
You would find the roots of all patterns, especially the trend/momentum following ones in their methods.
Once you get the dynamics of Price/Volume, any good book on chart patterns will do.

Any book in which we can read such patterns and the knowledge you have?

I use 4 scanners:
1) Volatility, Volume & daily range compression scanner
2) Punch-Drunk-Love
3) GE Ratio - to track fundamentally strong stocks
4) Recently created one to track Power Play setups.
I get around 150-200 stocks daily & choose the ones with the most potential.
