Reading and understanding charts seemed impossible for me when I initially started at the phase but as soon as I got to learn majority of things, I found it easier for me to understand the graphs and patterns. It usually takes a hell lot of research, Immense knowledge and the will to denote majority of your time in learning at the initial phase.
There are some books which can make it easier for you to understand the charts and patterns but those books would have hundreds and thousands of pages which you have to go though. So it might never be an easy task, but if you have the guts to work harder, than no one can stop you from being a success ahead.
If you want to earn money then you need to go through those thousands of pages because if you are not doing it you can be sure that someone else is and he is going to beat you in the markets, I understand the desire to make money without making a lot of effort but trading is not really the market for that, if you want to be a successful trader then you need to be smarter and have better skills than the majority of the traders and that is not an easy thing to do.
