The Joy of Charting Returns!

By -

A few years ago, i wrote a book called Joy of Charting, which was a combination introduction to technical analysis as well as a guide to SlopeCharts.

It was originally just an eBook, but I’ve updated it and printed it up as a good-looking 234 page honest-to-God printed book which I am giving away free to anyone who signs up for any of Slope’s paid memberships.

Printing the book and shipping to you is something I’ll pay for – – all you need to do is sign up for a package (even the humble Bronze monthly!) and tell me where you’d like me to ship it, and you’ll have it in a couple of days! Click here to choose your package, and the book is yours!
