Students are vulnerable to attack from other students and random individuals who may appear to be harmless on the surface or who may be sending out warning signals. Either way, to save their lives or protect themselves from injury, they must be prepared.

• Improve their chances of survival if they become victimized
• Make changes in their lifestyles that will reduce their risk of being victimized
• Force criminals and bullies to alter their plans against their victims
• Face fear and learn how to control it
• Work with other students, teachers, counselors, and administrators to increase the safety of all

Bullies and other school predators will always exist in one form or another. But students can take steps to make themselves less likely to be victimized. Using anecdotes and examples to demonstrate concepts, this volume provides important survival tips and gives students the confidence they need to protect themselves and feel safe in dangerous situations.

Zen Simple is a book directed at the new investor, or the investor beginning to consider effective methods of investing. It offers perspective on investing methods and presents simple and effective methods drawn from technical analysis and Dow Theory.

This book is a thorough study of the performance of Dow Theory signals since its inception in 1897. The Theory is explained and analyzed and compared to a procedure developed by John Magee mid-twentyth century. John Magee was a prominent analyst and author who co-authored the foundation work of technical analysis, Technical Analysis of Stock Trends, now in its 10th Edition as edited and coauthored by W.H.C. Bassetti.

There are probably as many methods of entering and exiting the market as there are traders. And judging from the average success of the average trader many of these methods are sadly flawed. This book addresses the problem of when to enter, when to exit and -- importantly, why. If there is no sound theoretical basis for a trader's decisions he will be a short term trader. Referring to a short term career. This book is rooted in classical chart analysis as taught by Edwards & Magee in Technical Analysis of Stock Trends. Using these methods the analyst/trader can identify signals when they occur in the market. To the uninitiated a bar chart, or candlestick chart, can look like meaningless chicken scratching. Once the beginner learns to analyze the chart he gains access to a world of information. Breakouts, trendline penetrations, gaps, power bars, meaningful patterns -- all can produce signals of great usefulness and profitability. What a difference from the practices of even professional traders and managers who "buy value" or "buy earnings" or buy on a lunar cycle or a solar flare. By contrast these technical signals, identified within a fully articulated technical "system" offer the trader or investor as much reliability as can be gained in chaotic and treacherous markets. By way of disclosure, no guarantee of success using this book and its methods is offered -- only the knowledge that an edge is gained over less educated and prepared market participants.

Describes a robust and powerful method for setting rising (or falling) stops in trends. Using wave analysis similar to Dow Theory it is a virtual algorithmic, but natural, method for trend following.
