I began reading a beginner's guide to short-term trading a couple weeks ago and I'm already half-way through it. I did not know who Toni Turner was when I bought the book at B&N, but it appeared to have the kind of info I needed to get a better handle on chart reading, sentiment, and short-term trading techniques.

I recommend it. Very easy to understand and follow.
