Two highly recommended video instructors (from personal experience) for people new to candlestick charting and want to get "The Edge":

ClayTrader - Clay's videos are top notch, well put together and sets you up to win.

Steve Nison (The man who bought candlestick charting to America!) - I highly recommend his book 'The Candlestick Course' but even more so, his DVD Mega Package for "CandleStick Charting." If you cannot afford the video series right now, at the very least, get the book.

I was a dart throwing trader for a few years until ClayTrader posted an article about investing in education a couple of months ago. This article started the turn of my mindset. After studying Clay's Robotic Trading videos, I complemented that knowledge with Steve Nison's The Candlestick Course book.

Two weeks ago, with part of my yearly bonus from my job, I picked up Steve Nison's Candlestick Charting Mega Package DVD series. All I have to say is Wow! I am on DVD #1 and Steve is killing it with the in-depth knowledge of Candlesticks and how they show the market of the psychology.

I am also reading 1-2 chapters each day of the following books to help build a knowledge of a top-down approach to investing:

Economics for Dummies (currently reading)
Economic Indicators for Dummies (next on my list after done with the above).

I have read many other For Dummies books that I saw others post about reading to help with their education (Trading, Investing, Technical Analysis, Fundamental Analysis, etc).

I will begin paper trading for some time once I am done with reviewing Steve and Clay's videos along with completing the two books above. I just wanted to share this info as it all started off with dart trading (for mostly losses) and now with the change of mindset along with solid information, I am going to return to the markets ready to make trades, minimize losses and help others along the way.

Never stop learning and growing! Good luck all and God Bless You.
