Evidence-Based Technical Analysis: Applying the Scientific Method and Statistical Inference to Trading Signals 1st Edition

The book "Evidence-Based Technical Analysis: Applying the Scientific Method and Statistical Inference to Trading Signals" is well received by many readers who have found the information it contains useful in trading. The book is praised for its originality and quality, as it teaches readers about the process by which trading signals are found. The author highlights the problem with data mining bias, which leads to overfitting and model complexity. Readers state that the book is not about testing trading systems, but testing trading signals, and the content is detailed, making it a framework for traders who want to create their own systems. The book is described as a bible, a definitive guide, and a great book for statistical analysis, but some readers claim that it is too verbose in some parts and that it wasted too much space explaining the roots of logical thinking rather than focusing on trading. One reviewer stated that the book questions traditional technical analysis and its validity, which makes it challenging for traders with strong reliance on technical analysis. Although some readers found the book sad for technical analysis enthusiasts, most found it entertaining, informative, and valuable.
