Most share traders try to find a system that is right most of the time. As a result, they spend their time alternating between being a marginal winner and a marginal loser, and searching for more superior systems. Successful trader and author Nick Radge argues that it does not matter which indicator, time frame or software package is superior ?they are nothing but tools. What does matter is minimising your losses and maximising your profits. In Adaptive Analysis for Australian Stocks, Radge explains how to use price action to make the most of your winning trades and, importantly, to quickly recognise a losing trade and exit your position. Radge breaks down and provides new insight into common market theory, including Elliott wave theory, micro patterns, risk management and exit strategies. This theory is then applied to the price action of Australian stocks, always with the same focus ?making more when you win and losing less when you lose.

Praise for Applied Risk Analysis

You have a real option to buy almost any book-you should exercise your option and get this one!"
-Glenn Kautt, MBA, CFP, EA, President and Chairman, Monitor Group, Inc.

Author: Aronson

Evidence-Based Technical Analysis is a breakthrough book in that it rigorously applies the scientific method and recently developed statistical tests to determine the true effectiveness of trading strategies, rules or systems discovered by data mining. Traditional technical analysis – as currently practiced – is more like a faith-based folk art than a science, the author asserts. These subjective interpretive methods cannot be back-tested or evaluated, yet many believe that they are effective. The author explains that because of various cognitive biases and illusions, such as hindsight bias, illusory correlations, etc., people often adopt beliefs that are unsupported by evidence or even contradicted by evidence.

A modern approach to equity valuation

Understanding the key ingredients that combine to affect price/earnings (P/Es) is of crucial importance to the investment process. In Franchise Value, Martin Leibowitz tackles the imposing task of determining what really has an impact on P/Es. The author shows why he subscribes to the conventional logic that the P/E gauges the market's assessment of the firm's future. He then introduce readers to the franchise-value approach to analyzing the prospective cash flows that determine a company's P/E. The franchise-value approach to valuation enables the analyst or investor to break the firm into two key component parts and to value those components. The franchise value approach is original and insightful, and with this book, readers can begin to implement this approach to perform better equity valuations.
