Quantum Trading

A cutting-edge guide to quantum trading

Original and thought-provoking, Quantum Trading presents a
compelling new way to look at technical analysis and will help you
use the proven principles of modern physics to forecast financial
markets.

In it, author Fabio Oreste shows how both the theory of
relativity and quantum physics is required to makes sense of price
behavior and forecast intermediate and long-term tops and bottoms.
He relates his work to that of legendary trader W.D. Gann and
reveals how Gann's somewhat esoteric theories are consistent with
his applications of Einstein's theory of relativity and quantum
theory to price behavior.

• Applies concepts from modern science to financial market
  forecasting

• Shows how to generate support/resistance areas and identify
  potential market turning points

• Addresses how non-linear approaches to trading can be used to
  both understand and forecast market prices

While no trading approach is perfect, the techniques found
within these pages have enabled the author to achieve a very
attractive annual return since 2002. See what his insights can
do for you.
