Review FROM STOCK TRADER'S ALMANAC 2006: "The best investment book of the year" FROM SFO MAGAZINE, (www.sfomag.com) "Wisdom gained from three decades of studying stock markets and creating timing indicators is what you will find in Gerald Appel's latest book. ... This book is a master technician's superb source of well-crafted ideas for timing indicators." --George A. Schade, CMT About the Author About the Author Gerald Appel has, since 1973, published Systems and Forecasts, a leading technical analysis publication. Appel is legendary for his work in technical analysis and market timing, including the creation of Moving Average Convergence-Divergence (MACD), one of the field's most widely used tools. His numerous books include, among others, Winning Market Systems: 83 Ways to Beat the Market, Stock Market Trading Systems (with Fred Hitschler), New Directions in Technical Analysis (with Dr. Martin Zweig), The Big Move, and Time-Trend III. His company, Signalert Corporation, and affiliates, currently manages more than $550,000,000 in investor capital. Appel has trained thousands of traders through his world-renowned video and audio tapes, seminars, and workbooks. He recently taught a series of four-day international master classes on investing and trading strategies in partnership with Dr. Alex Elder. As Appel puts it, "I have never lost anything by giving ideas away. If people find it useful, it makes me feel good." © Copyright Pearson Education. All rights reserved.

Investors plowed in, the stock market collapsed, and, thereafter, the public remained fearful of stocks for 20 years, although the stock market actually reached its lows during 1931 and 1932.
