The person who deserves the most credit for the second edition of this book is Ellen Schneid Coleman, Executive Editor at Simon & Schuster. She convinced me that it was time to revise Technical Analysis of the Futures Markets and broaden its scope. I'm glad she was so persistent. Special thanks go to the folks at Omega Research who provided me with the charting software I needed and, in particular, Gaston Sanchez who spent a lot of time on the phone with me. The contributing authors—Tom Aspray, Dennis Hynes, and Fred Schutzman—added their particular expertise where it was needed. In addition, several analysts contributed charts including Michael Burke, Stan Ehrlich, Jerry Toepke, Ken Tower, and Nick Van Nice. The revision of Chapter 2on Dow Theory was a collaborative effort with Elyce Picciotti, an independent technical writer and market consultant in New Orleans, Louisiana. Greg Morris deserves special mention. He wrote the chapter on candlestick charting, contributed the article in Appendix D, and did most of the graphic work. Fred Dahl of Inkwell Publishing Services (Fishkill, NY), who handled production of the first edition of this book, did this one as well. It was great working with him again.
