For example in the glossary I found no mention of MACD, Moving Averages, Fibonacci, Bollinger Bands, or any of those oscillators used by today's technical analysts. There was no mention of Japanese Candlesticks, instead, all his charts are printed using the OHLC flags (which I've not seen in ages)...........so the moral of my message here is "don't run out and buy that book. I think you will be sorely disappointed.
PS. As I recall from those days when I first subscribed to the IBD Online membership, I believe he more or less plugged his book and then made certain research data available on the IBD website which helped to support the system taught in his book. I think I also recall that after a period of time, that research data disappeared from his web site, and from there I believe his Investing System faded off the earth.............. funny how those things work sometime.
