The Gartley Trading Method: New Techniques To Profit from the Markets Most Powerful Formation

Wow what’s a book. I spent the whole weekend reading it, focusing on certain sections over and over. The way that it is laid out and way the author goes back and forth between methods can be extremely confusing. First, Elliot waves. Then the gartley. Then a modified gartley. Then another one. I was about to pull my hair out but with enough time was able to digest what the author was explaining. I wrote personal diagrams of each method and studied this like I would a college textbook. I believe that is the way you need to approach this book to learn the methods successfully.You will ultimately learn the way to differentiate the two methods the author teaches. The first is the TCG: Trend continuation method which anything you read today online teaches you. The second is the TRG: Trend Reversal method which is much more rare but has a different method of application and rules. Overall I’m very glad I read this over and over to fully understand the concepts. After a weekend of study I know which method to apply to the markets based off of trying to enter to participate on a trend or how to enter when I see a long term reversal. Highly recommend if you are willing to put in the work.

The book was "ok" overall. It does give you a brief psychology on trading and advice to have some kind of money management, but it was confusing at times the way he explained the Gartley pattern. I was disappointed that there were no specific targets to expect at the completion of a Gartley, such as 61.8% retracement of the CD leg, or the strength of where the completion would occur with different Fib. confluence or anything of that sort. I think the book could've been written in couple pages with the rules on what Gartley himself, Carney, and Pesavento regarded as a Gartley and some examples with the charts showing the pattern.It is a good book as an introduction to the Gartley pattern but will definitely need to read some more information before feeling comfortable.

Good readI am new to stocks and tradingIt would have me helped if i understood technical trading terms before reading this book ..But the main message i got is following a plan is not gambling ,. Before I thought investing in stocks is gambling .

Ross Beck's book on the Gartley pattern and trading methods is straight forward and well written; one of the very best trading books I've read. And, I'm not keen on offering over-praise and am intolerant of most trading books where the authors do not take the time nor the interest to write clearly or adequately proof-read their works for errors. Mr. Beck weaves humor, intellect, and wisdom into the pages of salient definitions, methods, applications, and explanations. His command of the subject becomes obvious not by boasting or bloviating, but rather by the breadth and completeness of his book.

I finished this book while returning home on a C-130 cargo aircraft. I couldn't put it down, and it sure helped pass the time.I had taken some of Ross's online seminars a few years ago and wondered if I really needed this book. However, I'm glad I bought it because not only was it a nice review of some of the past discussions, but there are some updates (the difference between a trend reversal Gartley and a trend continuation Gartley) and more material as well (like a section on Gann). It was a great idea to include a chapter with case studies - examples of how Ross's trading methods worked out on several different trades.Since I was first introduced to the Gartley pattern by Ross in those seminars, I also came across some other traders who trade the Gartley in their own way. I was very pleased to see that Ross included a summary and comparison of the methods of these and others who use the Gartley pattern.I look forward to Ross's next book!

Ross Beck has written a book to which I wish I had read 4 years ago when I started trading, it would have saved me Thousands of Dollars and years of time. Through the writings of this new book, Ross Beck has removed the complicated misunderstandings of Gartley, Elliott and Gann and combined them into a simply trading method that is easy to understand even for the beginner. The book compliments his low cost video course now available with the opportunity for anyone who wants to succeed in the trading business with a reliable mechanism. This mechanism is one that has reduced the risk of failure and increased the opportunity for success more now then ever before. I know of no better method (mechanism) on the market today that could even remotely compare to this one. Without question, Ross Beck has shared with the world a method of tremendous value and I cannot praise him enough. The author also provides a strategy for entry and exit for this success to happen.Respectfully,Peter MikelisLas Vegas, NV

I have tried it on a live account and it performs better than any system that I have tried or bought before.

It's a great book with tons of useful information.

Although I do not trade the methodology describe in this book any more, it is still one of my favourite books and one that I keep in a special place on my selves.If you are an "advanced beginner" looking for some sort of method to your trading, you could certainly to worse than follow this book.It is clearly written, easy to read/follow and if you get it right could definitely help you one your way to be profitable.If you have heard of Gartley and want to learn more about his method, I would definitely recommend this book to you.

Some interesting and truly changing views on not just the Gartley pattern but how to trade them. Currently reading again to digest the information!

Very well explained.I like it.
