This Book Is Incomplete.

This book is making references to Exhibits I cannot see, hence the need for complementary books. If a book cannot tell its story on its own, then I should find one that does.

No exhibits included

had to buy the book to read along as the book mentions many exhibits and does not explain the exhibits.

the book itself is great but the audiobook is almost useless without the exhibits, especially the quizzes which are essential to this book and what sets it apart from Nison's Japanese candlestick book

Where is the reference guide?

This audiobook refers to exhibits that are not available for download with the audiobook. How are we suppose to follow along with examples that we cannot view?

Need a complementary PDF

I sent a complaint via customer service but didn’t receive a response. It’s crazy that this ebook doesn’t include a PDF as other books do. You’re referencing visuals and figures that we do not have access to. This renders the book useless and annoying. Yes we can google them and try to watch along but it complicates the listening experience.

A great listen

All and all it is a good book . just wish the PDF came with it. It would be easier to look at the charts and understand exactly what he is talking about

I Learned A Lot

This audio book was very informative. I didn't have the illustrations, but I'm a truck driver who listens while I drive so I wouldn't be able to see them anyway. But what I will do is get a hard copy of the book and listen again while I read along. I found the questions and answers at the end of the chapter to be especially helpful. I got a lot out of this book and find it a very useful resource for those new to day trading like myself.

The very best

Steve is the Godfather of Candlesticks. When you study Steve's work it is like clearing up bad information you've picked up elsewhere. An absolute must.

No exhibits included

Struggle to finish the book period, I believe exhibits are a big and important part of this book.

NO PDF

The audible book serves little purpose without the PDF to use and learn. The website referenced in a previous review wantwants you to re-purchase the book.

Great book but doesn't work as audiobook

I love Steve Nison and his candlestick books and this book is great at summarising the key concepts and giving an overview of the power of candles. But in order to get the most out of it, you need to see the examples. There is no PDF, which means you can't see any charts and can't even answer half the questions. Therefore, there is no purpose listening to the last few chapters at all.

Because of this major omission, there is no point listening to this book unless you already know the basics of candlesticks. Sadly that kind of defeats the main selling point of the book.

Beware - Rip Off

This Audiobook is basically usless without an accompanying Text version that includes all the relevent charting material that does not come with this Audible purchase. Most reputable Technical Analysis titles come with an accompanying downloadable PDF file. This title does not. You will need to purchase that seperatly for an additional cost of $80. All free PDF's for this book that have been posted on the net are illedgable and usless. Do not waste your money buying this Audio book.
