Best candlestick book I've read:
I've read Bigalow's first book and Bulkowski's "Encyclopedia of Candlesticks". Steve's book is much better that these two books. Actually, you only need one book to learn the candles.

Quite nice:
A very good book. Tells about all the different candle signals....i think all of them. I stopped using candlestick charts cuz i of how i am trading now and i dont see any advantage with the candles. THey trick me too much. But if you are interested in candles you need to buy this book. And really, you can see all the same signs using bars if you pay attention. Great book!!
Japanese Candlestick Charting Techniques:
Japanese Candlestick Charting Techniques, Second EditionThis Second Edition is the basic "Bible" on candlesticks. Most traders will have/need this on their reference shelf.
Satisfied with the book:
Steve Nison is truely the father of Japanese Candlestick into the western. He explained why candles are made and how the candle can be a signal to get into a trade and when to get off. The convergence of East and West makes my trading more manageable and honestly, I have "profit"-ed after reading this book. Very highly recommended!
