From the Inside Flap

With recent advances in institutional trading strategies—most notably high-frequency trading and artificial intelligence—generating rewards against high-tech competition has seemed next to impossible. In this updated Sixth Edition of the bestselling classic Trading Systems and Methods, market guru Perry Kaufman provides investors with tools they can use to make large gains, even in today’s complex markets.
For nearly three decades, Trading Systems and Methods has provided investors with basic knowledge (starting with an introduction to technical analysis, statistics, and market charting) and detailed strategies (from behavioral techniques to advanced approaches like neural networks) enabling them to identify big-picture trends and capture extreme price moves. Unlike many books on market trading, Trading Systems and Methods takes the approach that, applied the right way, many systems can be successful under different market conditions. It shows you how to identify and evaluate those conditions, and how to apply the strategies. Tools available on the Companion Website allow for valuable hands-on experimentation, so you can enter the market with a sound plan.

Busy professionals and international traders will especially appreciate this new text.
