In his first book, A Complete Guide to Technical Trading Tactics, John Person introduced traders to the concept of integrating candlestick charting with pivot point analysis. Now, in Candlestick and Pivot Point Trading Triggers, he goes a step further and shows you how to devise your own setups and triggers—in the stock, forex, and futures markets—based on a moving average approach.

A Must Read for Every Trader!
Review Date: November 30, 2006
Reviewer: Todd Langton, Santa Rosa, CA
John Person's first book, A Complete Guide to Technical Trading Tactics, is a must read for any trader. When I heard his new book, Candlestick and Pivot Point Trading Triggers was published I couldn't wait to get my hands on it. This book exceeded my high expectations! I now have a much better understanding of how to use triggers, set-ups and stops combined with candlesticks, pivots and the moving average approach. I not only have a stronger grasp on candlesticks and pivot points but now I can go way beyond and use Person's proven methods, techniques and formulas in my own trading plan. If you are a trader you need to study and implement the knowledge from this great book.
Probably the best book on trading I've read to date!
Review Date: March 2, 2008
Reviewer: Fletch,
UPDATE: The only annoying thing about this book is some of the organization. For example, the author discusses "high close dojis" and "low close dojis" (which apparently are terms he gave to certain candlestick formations) and does not explain what they are until CHAPTER EIGHT (I believe it's chapter 8). I got so annoyed I just skipped ahead and read what they all were, then returned and picked up to where I left off. Other than that, this book is an outstanding source of information!
I've been studying, practice trading, and trading options now for almost a year and I've been absolutely relentless in my studies...seminars, DVDs, and books. And of all the books I've read, this is probably tied for the single best book on trading (the other book is Trade Chart Patterns Like the Pros by Suri Dudella). What I like is that the examples are recent and relevant and the pictures/charts are clear. Although I'm not into futures, the e-minis or forex, this book covers everything as John Person trades just about everything. And thats another thing, the guy is a trader...wow! Imagine that! A book on trading written by a guy who actually trades! This book has helped my trading more than any other that I've read, and I've read a lot. To those who gave this book a poor rating, I'm curious if we read the same book. If you have any questions, you can email me at headbanger51 at yahoo dot com and be sure to put the title of this book in the subject line or it'll get deleted. Bottom line: INVALUABLE BOOK!
Outstanding Combination of Canldestick & Pivot Points
Review Date: May 18, 2008
Reviewer: Perry Gonen, Israel
This is an exceptionaly well written book. Not only is the reader introduced to a new concept of Pivot Points, but also the combination of using Candlestick charting and special Moving averages gives a very powerful trading platform. John Person has taken a lot of effort to explain all details of his trading platform, but what is more than unusual in books like these, is that he gives dozens of examples with very detailed explanations. This is something rare, but allows the reader to fully understand the theory not only in written words but in live examples down to the last detail.
This book is a must reader for all Traders whether professional or not, as it is an eye opener into a very powerful platform. Even taking parts of this platform into ones own trading systems can be very beneficial. All Kudus to John Persons latest book.
One of the Best

Reviewer: James E. Torguson,
This a well written book that provides lots of background AND the specific steps (entry and exit signals) to make money trading the Forex market. This methods explain also work for the futures and stock market.
I would highly recommend this book for any one that is trading any market and has not used pivot points!
My Favorite Teacher!!!

Reviewer: S. Bigham, Virginia
I bought all three of his books and read this one first. After losing money before, i believe using the pivot point system he teaches, i'll be much more successful. Bottom line is John Person is an excellent teacher and i'll be following his teachings in the future.
