Read "The Intelligent Investor" instead.

Hmmm? I didn't realize that was a technical analysis book? What kinds of TA methods does it focus on?

Just the greatest and most effective TA method ever, the "not using TA" method.

DC, I know you're a FA investor, but have you ever worked on or studied TA extensively?
I believe both methods can compliment each other. FA can provide you with set-ups and TA can privide your entries and exits.
TA, when used properly, can act like a looking glass mapping the patterns of buying and selling which often points towards impeding moves.
Completely disregarding TA surely will make you lose some edge when using FA for set-ups.

I'm not holding positions above IV, nor am I selling at well below IV. I've been doing this long enough to know I have no insight into price patterns.
