    5 out of 5 stars Excellente product!.......2007-02-16

    This is a book clear and very easy to read, for me as physics research, and to my development is very useful.
    Strongly recommended.

    5 out of 5 stars Brain Surgeons Can't Trade Stocks Like Ehlers Can.......2006-07-01

    John Ehlers newest title is sure to make even the brightest of brain surgeons quiver for fear of closing the renal artery prior to completing the operation. Other reviewers may diss this author but his latest book truly reaches for the stars and makes it. The chapters while short, are to the point and exquisitely illustrate the concept being taught. If you are new to trading systems the shortness of the explanations may be too short but for experienced traders and developers of trading systems they are long enough.

    Aspects of many indicators are reviewed with fresh insight added for several new systems not talked about in print before. Removing the lag is the traders dream. Many of the indicators shown do work although errata in the code does spoil some of the implementations given. Ehlers has provided for the keener updates on his website that corrects the mistakes, kudos here for doing the right thing.

    Overall Ehlers has done it again and this book should be a staple in any traders library. As for the wannabees wanting all the answers and sure fire methods, choose brain surgery as your career option. No one said trading would be easy but Ehlers has given more toolsets that a successful trader can use in a concise to the point book.

    5 out of 5 stars Excellent and a must if you desire to succeed.......2005-09-13

    I have been trading for nearly 10 years now and have spent countless amount of time and money on books, systems, software and must say this the best book I have come across. With little creativity one can easy adopt ideas from this book to come up with a profitable mechanical system.

    5 out of 5 stars Holy Grail has failed.......2005-08-31


    The computerization and digital signal processing development let improve classical indicators essentially due to application of modern methods of information processing to prices. Indicators began to smooth better and to delay less. However . First, the prices are non stationary, i.e. the characteristics of filters are varied during the time. Second, as different from technical problems, the kind of a signal and noise distributions for the price are unknown, i.e. nobody know what to filter actually. Third, being filtered by means of Fourier and similar methods prices change the previous values to the addition of the new data: we receive ideal trends under a history data but we can only trade them from right hand to left hand.

    Fourier transformation is based on representation of initial series by the infinite sum of sinusoids with a various phase, amplitude and frequency. Recently wavelet transformations was widely adopted in various areas of data processing in which initial series are represented as the sum of some locally defined functions named wavelets. They are constructed by shifting and vertical and horizontal scaling of certain the prototype function. Wavelet transformation, in essence, is fractal that allows the effective using it in the technical analysis. First, it allows to carry out the multiscale analysis of prices, objectively identify trends on various scales by duration and amplitude, separate traders to various groups: scalpers, day traders, swing traders, position traders and long-term investors. The multiscale analysis can be interpreted as the analysis on various time frames. Second, it allows determine noise as the insufficient for reception of the profit amplitude and frequency movement of the prices that effectively allows filter the price series simply subtracting the lowest scale wavelets from it. Third, the additional filtration of white noise without delay is possible. Fourth, long-term trends are defined objectively. Fifth, wavelets do not contain optimized parameters in construct to standard indicators. Sixth, the used wavelets type is adapted to deal with the time ordered data and does not distorted on the last price values. Seventh, the used wavelet transformation is very effective computationally that allows use it in real time for the large massives of tick data. Eighth, it is effective to use wavelets as input data for neural networks and other methods of forecasting and recognition.

    5 out of 5 stars John Ehlers Does It Again.......2005-08-21

    John Ehlers new book covers much of the same ground but goes beyond his previous book Rocket Science for Traders. Again the reader is given the explanations and theory for his indicators, smoothers and systems along with the Easy Language code for use in the Tradestation platform.

    These indicators can be used as presented or can be easily adapted and combined with countless other indicators that a trader may currently be using. Certainly, the goal of any trader is to identify market tops or bottoms or at least to determine if markets are trending, behaving cyclically or entering a period of sideways or volatile movement. These indicators, alone or combined with others, can help one achieve that goal.

    The reviewers of his previous book that had negative comments I believe, for the most part, missed the point entirely as it concerns John Ehlers subject matter and style. Hence, I am concerned that they will also make the same mistake when considering this book. Some believed the analysis was sophmoric while others were concerned with advanced theoretical questions concerning the mathematics presented. Since traders come from all backgrounds books like these need to be written to appeal to as many of them as possible. An electrical engineer will understand the concepts and why they might apply to equity and commodity markets and then can make any changes he/she sees fit with the code. Other readers that understand the problems with trading in trending vs non-trending markets can skip the DSP discussions and immediately use the indicators presented or use the code that determines cycle length to make their own indicators much more responsive to market conditions. Theoretical arguments aside, even the simple indictors included in this book take one way beyond the world of simple moving averages and stationary stochastics.

    If nothing more, anyone burning the midnight oil searching for a way to beat the markets will be given endless, state-of-the-art ideas to keep him busy for a long time.

                  This digital document is an article from Polymer Engineering and Science, published by Thomson Gale on January 1, 2007. The length of the article is 6302 words. The page length shown above is based on a typical 300-word page. The article is delivered in HTML format and is available in your Amazon.com Digital Locker immediately after purchase. You can view it with any web browser.

                  From the author: This paper describes the use of 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpi-peridinyl-oxy (TEMPO) derivatives for scorch suppression, cure control, and functionalization in peroxide crosslinking of polyethylene. When 4-hydroxy 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl was used for scorch suppression, there was often a loss in ultimate degree of crosslinking. In contrast, with bis(1-oxyl-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpi-peridine-4-yl)sebacate, both scorch suppression and ultimate degree of crosslinking were enhanced. A model study in hexadecane showed that TEMPO radicals terminate with carbon-centered radicals formed as a consequence of peroxide homolysis and propagation steps. This termination occurs preferentially over peroxide-initiated crosslinking and results in TEMPO-grafted polymer. In addition to polymer radical formation, several additional reaction pathways are available following thermal homolysis of the peroxide, including unimolecular disassociation of the peroxy radical to yield a methyl radical and a ketone, and proton extraction from one of several substrates by the peroxy radical to yield an alkyl radical and an alcohol. This study reveals that the reaction rate is limited by the rate of peroxide homolysis, and proceeds to statistical products with little or no preference for any specific species. The implication is that choice of peroxide is a dominant controlling factor over whether the TEMPO derivatives are ultimately grafted to the polymer or are bound to small alkyl radicals. POLYM. ENG.

                  5 out of 5 stars THE BEST introduction to physics concepts and history.......2004-05-20

                  Having studied Holton's Harvard Project Physics textbook as a senior in high school thirty years ago, I was delighted to find this updated textbook by Holton and Brush. I have used Physics, The Human Adventure several times as one of the textbooks for an entry level Introduction to Physics college course that I teach occasionally here at the University of North Florida. (The second textbook for the class, which I believe complements Holton and Brush nicely, is College Physics in the Schaum's Outline Series).

                  Physics, The Human Adventure is excellent! The book brings a mature, historical and philosophical orientation to the presentation of physics concepts. The history and philosophy weaves the development of the physics concepts without ever eclipsing the physics. I have found serious students love the book. The book does not try to present basic physics without utilizing mathematics, but the level of the mathematics is basic algebra and elementary trignonometry.

                  Since most of my students are taking the course as background for continuing in their physics studies in algebra- or calculus-based physics courses, they appreciate the combination of Holton & Brush with the Schaum's outline textbook mentioned above. The students who are in the class for general education purposes are also well served by Holton and Brush; and it doesn't hurt them to work a half-dozen or so homework problems a week out of Schaum's, either.

                  My highest compliment is, often I find myself picking up Holton and Brush just for the fun of it. I can't think of any other physics textbook that illicits this response from me!

                  My only criticism is, in the early chapter introducing kinematics, the authors use speed and velocity in a way that deviates from current usuage. Also, it is standard now to use "g"
                  to represent the (always) positive number 9.8 m/s/s.The authors use g=-9.8 m/s/s/, which is rare indeed. Admittedly, these are minor (if not trivial) matters.

                  I highly recommend this textbook for conceptual/introductory physics courses or for anyone who is interested in physics principles via the history and philosophy of science. This textbook is head and shoulders above all of its competitors. It simply doesn't get any better than this!

                  (I hope Rutgers Press keeps this book in print!)

                              Product Description

                              This historical novel is set in Germany in the 15th century. The lovely Christina is forced to move to a desolate, craggy castle to live with a family of robber barons. Her influence over these mountain "eagles" and her descendants weaves a strange tale. Seven 90-minute cassettes.

                              5 out of 5 stars Very Well Written Christian Story of the Late Middle Ages in Germany.......2006-08-29

                              A very moving story. It traces the life of a woman who lives in a mountain castle outside of Ulm from a young girl to old age. The book also traces the lives and moral struggles of her husband and sons and so was very interesting for both our Middle School/High School son and daughter as well as ourselves. Set in the period before the Protestant Reformation, it provides an interesting portrait of the Emperor Maximilian 1459-1519 and the problem of Moslem corsairs. However, the story itself is fictional and illustrates a period rather than a course of historical events. We have enjoyed a number of Charlotte Yonge books and despite the lack of strong historical content consider this one of her best as an edifying story.

                              4 out of 5 stars I was dissapointed.......2006-06-09

                              I heard that Charlotte Yonge's books were very good, and was dissapointed. It reminds me rather of an Elsie Dinsmore book. Unlike Elsie, the heroine makes mistakes, but the book seems to focus on her morality and virtue rather than a plot, or drawing the reader to Christ. The plot is good, even intriguing, but it all goes to reveal the "exemplary" character of the heroine. If you like the Elsie Dinsmore books, you may like this even more. It is an exjoyable book, but if you think a well-written story should offer something more substantial to the reader that an example of wonderful character, you may be dissapointed, as I was. Overall, with the setting, the medieval time period, and the drama, it is an enjoyable read.

                              5 out of 5 stars Wonderful for a young girl........1998-05-20

                              I am taking a chance that this is a book I read when a child, in the 40s. Or perhaps there was another book with the same title, about a young girl of noble family whose marriage to a prince who lives in a castle atop a high mountain and whom she has never met. The book opens with her journey up the mountain, in fear and trepidation.
