Technical analysis involves learning from history and experience in
order to project into the future. I therefore dedicate this book to the late
William H. Fullman, Jr., Sandie Fullman, James Boyd Taylor, and Doris
J. Taylor, who my wife and I have learned countless lessons from, and to
our children Jonathan William Fullman and Daniel Scott Fullman, who
we have taught and loved using those life experiences.
