Every candle on a stock chart is a crowd of people buying and selling, drawn as a picture. Once you learn to see the crowd, the hospital screen becomes a story - and the people who use charts to confuse you lose their power.

Read the Chart teaches complete beginners how to read stock charts in twelve short chapters: candles and the four prices, trends, support and resistance (floors and ceilings), volume, moving averages, the few candlestick patterns that actually matter, gaps, ranges and breakouts, indicators used properly (as servants, not oracles), risk management, how tips groups misuse charts, and a five-minute daily routine for reading the whole market. It ends with a 90-day practice plan that uses no real money at all.

Note: This book shares ideas only. It is not a guarantee of results. This book is education, not investment advice. It does not recommend buying or selling any stock, and it promises no profits. Most active traders lose money. Never trade money you cannot afford to lose.

No jargon. No tips. No magic formulas. Just the language of the market, in plain words, with Indian market examples and a small exercise at the end of every chapter.
