Richard D. Wyckoff
Richard D. Wyckoff was an American trader, market writer, editor, and publisher. He studied the behavior of large operators and sought to give independent market participants a practical framework for reading price, volume, and the changing balance between supply and demand.
His early work on tape reading developed into a wider body of instruction on market campaigns, accumulation, distribution, and risk control. Wyckoff’s writing remains influential because it combines close observation with a strong insistence on planning and self-discipline.
