There are a good deal of books on forecasting in the market (e.g.Forecasting
Financial Markets by Plummer). Depends very much on the kind of time series
one is looking at. There is a new book on asset return modelling (Stable
Paretian Models in Finance) which is very mathematical and requires some
good knowledge in the underlying maths stuff. I suggest you also look at the
books in Amazon. Unfortunately I can't give you any good advice since I am
not an expert in the area. Perhaps somebody else on the list is...
