Are you weary of sorting through all the “good news – bad news” dialogue?  The financial media would have you believe that everything is coming up roses.  First it was the green shoots.  Now they tell us the housing market is stabilizing. In other words, it’s not dropping like a rock anymore.  And the credit crisis?  That’s improving too.  From bone-dry liquidity to a molasses-like consistency.  There have also been some positive earnings reports.  Then of course there’s the stock market – roaring ahead to new highs on the move.
 
On the other side of the ledger, there are the dismal unemployment numbers; the foreclosures, with more to come as additional sub-prime mortgages re-set; more bank failures every weekend; and the reality of the residential and commercial real estate market.
 
As you may already know, trading or investing based on the “news” can be detrimental to your fiscal health.  Technical analysis – market forecasting based entirely on price action – attempts to be purely objective.  It presumes to let the markets tell you where they are going.  Elliott Wave analysis takes this approach several steps further:  we use chart patterns to identify tops and bottoms as well as trends and their probable length and duration.  Applied correctly, charts can strip away emotion, bias, and ego.  What’s left is price as the final and ultimate authority, and price unfolds in recognizable and repeating wave patterns.  These patterns represent the prevailing psychology in all time frames.
 
In the current issue of the Elliott Wave Theorist, Bob Prechter presents a clear and compelling argument for a substantial psychological turn in the stock market.  The charts he includes show that history may not always repeat itself but it frequently rhymes.
 
Our “All-the-same-market” theme is evident as well in Bob’s analysis of gold and the dollar.  The premise is that in a deflationary environment, as credit contracts, the lack of liquidity causes people and institutions to sell their assets to get dollars.  This includes gold, oil, stocks, property, everything! 
 
Get instant access to the  Theorist  now and receive a free copy of Prechter’s book The Elliott Wave Principle, the most useful and comprehensive guide to understanding and applying the Elliott Wave Principle.  If you need assistance with your market-timing, our three times a week  Short Term Update  may be helpful.  For longer term coverage subscribe to the  Elliott Wave Financial Forecast – all with our 30-day risk free guarantee.

The Elliott Wave Principle is a detailed description of how financial markets behave. The description reveals that mass psychology swings from pessimism to optimism and back in a natural sequence, creating specific Elliott wave patterns in price movements. Each pattern has implications regarding the position of the market within its overall progression, past, present and future. The purpose of Elliott Wave International’s market-oriented publications is to outline the progress of markets in terms of the Wave Principle and to educate interested parties in the successful application of the Wave Principle. While a course of conduct regarding investments can be formulated from such application of the Wave Principle, at no time will Elliott Wave International make specific recommendations for any specific person, and at no time may a reader, caller or viewer be justified in inferring that any such advice is intended. Investing carries risk of losses, and trading futures or options is especially risky because these instruments are highly leveraged, and traders can lose more than their initial margin funds. Information provided by Elliott Wave International is expressed in good faith, but it is not guaranteed. The market service that never makes mistakes does not exist. Long-term success trading or investing in the markets demands recognition of the fact that error and uncertainty are part of any effort to assess future probabilities. Please ask your broker or your advisor to explain all risks to you before making any trading and investing decisions.
