William J. O'Neil (1)

The foundation of this classic by William O'Neil is his CANSLIM framework. He adds a richness of other ideas, including learning when to buy, when to sell, and how to develop your own style. The book is also filled with charts throughout, such that you sometimes need set it aside and return later with fresh eyes. The 4th edition includes data back into the 19th century all the way through the 2008 financial crisis. I'm glad I took the recommendation for this book made to me by a master show more technician I work with. show less

I've read a few investment books, and this is the most comprehensive system I've found for determining when EXACTLY to enter and exit positions. The consistent, unemotional method that O'Neil provides has helped me immensely in thinking about and executing my investing strategies.

Worthy guide for future reference. Good reminders about discipling and following a method. Includes: how to read a chart for good time to buy and sell, investor psychology.

I love everything Bill O'Neil writes. His paper Investor's Business Daily blows the pants off any competitor! I can't wait for his next edition!
