If technical analysis works so well, why would more and more of the trading community shift their
focus from technical analysis of the market to mental analysis of themselves, meaning their own
individual trading psychology? To answer this question, you probably don't have to do anything more than ask yourself why you bought this book. The most likely reason is that you're dissatisfied with the
difference between what you perceive as the unlimited potential to make money and what you end up
with on the bottom line. That's the problem with technical analysis, if you want to call it a problem.
Once you learn to identify patterns and read the market, you find there are limitless opportunities to
make money. But, as I'm sure you already know, there can also be a huge gap between what you
understand about the markets, and your ability to transform that knowledge into consistent profits or a
steadily rising equity curve.
