How to Make Money in Stocks, by William J. O'Neil

Bill O'Neil is the founder of IBD, Investor's Business Daily.

In this book he outlines his CANSLIM methodology for investing in stocks. He covers the main fundamentals and technical patterns ("bases") he looks for in a stock. These include cup with handle, double bottom, flat base, etc.

The book also covers O'Neil's background and how & why he founded the paper.

This is a "must read" for all investors, imho.

The lastest edition is the 3rd. Here is the Amazon link for the book.
