Technical Analysis of Stock Trends, 11th Edition, is a reference work that provides long- and short-term stock trend analysis to assist investors with trading decisions. Originally written by Robert D. Edwards and John Magee and coauthored by W.H.C. Bassetti, the text pairs foundational technical market theory with actionable trading tactics.
The volume examines core analytical concepts, including The Dow Theory, chart reversal patterns, consolidation formations, trends and channels, and the technical analysis of commodity charts. It also explores practical trading strategies such as stock selection, risk levels, and portfolio diversification.
The 2019 edition added tighter patterns and modifiable charts. It also expanded discussion of Pragmatic Portfolio Theory as an alternative to Modern Portfolio Theory alongside an alternative to Dow Theory.
