It's the holiday season, and the trading volume in the forex markets is thin. Still, even in these tough conditions, wave analysis can bring you low risk, high-potential opportunities. For proof, watch this free 3-minute clip from a video that Jim Martens, the editor of EWI's Currency Specialty Service, recorded for his subscribers yesterday, December 30.

EURUSD: Patience
Corrections can be very long, protracted -- and frustrating -- affairs.

You may know know that since last week, it has rallied strongly – about 600 pips, so far – pushing the exchange rate back up to $1.30 and robbing the buck of its latest gains. Despite the rally, the "triangle" interpretation of the current picture in the EURUSD that we've talked about on these pages last week still stands...

Down 309 Points, Up 552 Points…Fast Enough For Ya?
Let's not even get into "reasons" why the Dow went bipolar on November 13.

Not that we haven't seen markets like these before. Since at least September, volatility in the stock market has been off the charts (no pun intended.) Still, what we witnessed today (Nov. 13) was staggering even if you didn't have an open position. (God help you if you did.)

Euro Vs. U.S. Dollar (Forex): When News Doesn't Move Markets, What Does?
If news drives forex market prices, how come markets move on slow news days, too?

Forex markets have been volatile lately, and you've probably heard mainstream forex analysts citing various economic and news reports, trying to explaining why. There is one major problem with the premise that markets are moved by the news, though. If you continue this logic, on days when there are no major economic reports, you would expect markets to go sideways. And yet even on those days, the market moves, too. How come?

The Dow: Four Major "Developments"

The only time the phrase “Reply hazy, try again later” is an acceptable response to a question is when you shake a Magic Eight Ball. Now consider these recent news headlines from the mainstream financial media: “Fed Signal Unclear,” “Economic Outlook Uncertain,” “Repercussions Unknown,” and “Stock Markets Remain Mixed.”

Coffee: Wheel Of Fortune
You need some deductive reasoning to apply Elliott wave analysis in your trading.

by Nico Isaac

Mainstream financial analysis usually does one of two things: Waits around for this or that supply/demand report to provide direction to a seemingly delayed market – OR – cherry picks through the day's events for a “fundamental” reason to explain direction that has already taken place. Either way, it ends up missing out on the action.

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.
