“Crypto Technical Analysis” by John Alan Law is a complete beginner-to-intermediate guide tailored specifically to the volatile, high-potential world of cryptocurrency trading. While crypto markets may seem chaotic, this book brings clarity with tried-and-tested technical tools, empowering you to make data-driven decisions across Bitcoin, Ethereum, altcoins, and more.
Written in a clear, jargon-free style, the book explains the core building blocks of technical analysis, such as support and resistance, candlestick patterns, moving averages, RSI, MACD, Fibonacci levels, and trendlines.
