Mastering the Stock Market / Wiley Trading Series (PDF)

Noted technical analyst John Person outlines a comprehensive
method to pinpointing today's best trading opportunities

The economy and stock market are heavily influenced by seasonal
factors. For example, a strong holiday buying season tends to be
bullish for retail stocks or rising energy costs hurt airline
profitability. Awareness of seasonal trends in both the economy and
stock market can put you in a better position to profit from
sectors and stocks that are likely to outperform the overall
market. And technical tools can then be used to confirm emerging
trends and time entries into these stocks and sectors.

Mastering the Stock Market provides authoritative
insights into a method for trading stocks based on seasonal trends,
sector analysis, and market timing. Taking a top-down approach, the
book explains how seasonal supply/demand forces impact commodities
and different sectors of the stock market. After learning how to
identify stock market sectors and commodity ETFs that are ripe for
a big move, you'll quickly discover how to use technical analysis
to gauge the strength of the sector or commodity and then identify
the strongest stocks and ETFs to trade. Along the way, you'll also
learn how to use the author's own indicators, Persons Pivots, to
identify support/resistance areas and pinpoint optimal entry and
exit points.
