This list is in no particular order and is by no means a definitive list. There are many worthy books not listed here. The deeper you delve into trading, futures markets and technical analysis, the greater will become your thirst for knowledge and then the deeper your understanding will be of the older texts. Some of these books are still in print, others have to be tracked down through second hand book dealers and shops. Amazon and Abebooks are good sources. Lastly, for those new to technical analysis, we strongly suggest titles by Murphy, Brandt, Neill, Pistolese and Shaleen (marked '*').
