So, David, those are the other three books in your top five? :) E -----Original Message----- From: David Taggart [mailto:dctag@mavericktrading.com] Sent: Monday, July 01, 2002 6:48 PM To: canslim@lists.xmission.com Subject: RE: [CANSLIM] Earnings Confidence Well I would have to put in Reminisces of a Stock Operator, Winning on Wall Street Zweig, Small-Cap dynamics Pradhuman, How to Trade in Stocks Livermore, Fooled by Randomness Taleb, Education of a Speculator Niederhoffer, Alchemy of Finance (the second and third time I had to re read it because I didnt reall get it) Soros, Technical Analysis from the Schwager on Futures series and Tech analysis of the Financial Markets by Murphy kinda tie for my favorite Tech analysis books, A Zebra in Lion Country Wagner. BTW I would include the market wizard books and Darvas. There are a lot of good books on the market and unfortunately a lot of useless info along with some plain old crap. I might do some book reports here when I can get to it. Happy Trading, David Taggart P.S. If you ever see a book that you deem expensive but your local Borders doesnt have it go ahead and do a special order at the bookstore. It is a little known fact that you get to browse and examine the book before you decide if you even want it. If you dont want it it doesnt cost you a cent and they keep it. - -----Original Message----- From: owner-canslim@lists.xmission.com [mailto:owner-canslim@lists.xmission.com]On Behalf Of J.

PS- Not fair to mention Market Wizards or Darvas's book as they're on everyone's list.... PPS- This is not completely off topic as MW has interviews with WON and Ryan, while Darvas's system bears some similarities to CANSLIM. - ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Taggart" <dctag@mavericktrading.com> To: <canslim@lists.xmission.com> Sent: Monday, July 01, 2002 5:35 PM Subject: RE: [CANSLIM] Earnings Confidence > My basic interpretation of GARP is the P/E should be 70% or less of the 3 > year growth rate.
