The Euro: Up to its “Neckline” in Opportunity
Elliott Wave Junctures’ latest video lesson reveals the form AND function of the head-and-shoulders pattern
By Nico Isaac
5/7/2012 5:45:00 PM
Without doubt, the Head-and-Shoulders chart pattern is one of the most popular within the world of technical analysis. The reason being -- as "old-school" as the H&S may seem to the budding school of high-tech digital chartists, this pattern never loses its value with age. To illustrate its timeless appeal, EWI's senior instructor Jeffrey Kennedy presents his May 4 Elliott Wave Junctures video lesson titled simply, "Head-And-Shoulders."

EUR/CAD Update: Elliott Wave Analysis Still Going Strong
Learn what tools helped EWI's Currency Specialty Service to stay one step ahead of this forex market's biggest near-term turns
By Nico Isaac

If investing in stock markets is akin to riding a slow moving camel through the open desert, then speculating in forex markets is like riding a wild, bucking rodeo bronco. The trick is to stay on through every major near-term twist and turn before face-planting it into the ground below. Today we're walking through one such example of how EWI's forex-focused Currency Specialty Service used Elliott wave analysis to stay in the saddle for the recent down-up-down ride in the Euro/Canadian Dollar cross rate (EUR/CAD).

EUR/CAD Erases 3 Weeks of Gains in One Week's Time: See Why
What helped EWI's Currency Specialty Service foresee an Elliott wave pattern that signaled the start of the powerful turn down?
By Nico Isaac
4/5/2012 2:15:00 PM
How do you decide when to enter or exit a forex trade? Well, let's put a real-world example on the table, shall we? The following chart of EUR/CAD cross rate since mid-March makes an obvious case for the March 30 peak being the best time to have gotten on board this market. From there, the EUR/CAD erased three weeks of gains in one week's time.

The Double-Edged U.S. Dollar? Not So Fast
EWI's Currency Specialty Service provides an objective way to get a strong "hold" on the EUR/Dollar's near-term trend.
By Nico Isaac

Mainstream economists maintain that the US dollar is a sure-fire "safe haven." That means the dollar's demand rises as the global economic picture gets worse. Indeed, we've seen the USD rally during many crises over the past few years, most notably during the worst of the 2007-2009 financial crisis, when even the US economy was not spared.

EURO-ka, We've Got It! Why the Euro Has Fallen
How and why EWI's Currency Specialty Service has stayed one step ahead of the euro's recent decline
By Nico Isaac
3/5/2012 2:00:00 PM
On February 29, the euro rose to its highest level in three months. And, according to many mainstream experts, the euro's rally should have continued on the back of the European Central Bank's allotment of three-year loans to banks. But, instead of finding immediate "support," the euro lost its footing in a precipitous, three-session losing streak before landing at a two-week low on March 5. So much for government "stimulus."

Commodities: A Clear Trend for the Next 20 Years -- Learn What It Is
EWI chief commodity analyst Jeffrey Kennedy's "Unedited: Forecasting" video presents a "very, very big picture view" of commodities for the next two decades
By Nico Isaac

If analysis of financial markets was a stage, then all the "fundamental analysis" players would be doing improv: They react to one unexpected external prompt after another, all the while trying to string together a cohesive story -- often to no avail. Practitioners of Elliott wave analysis, on the other side, would be actual theater actors: They memorize script lines (i.e., Elliott wave patterns) and anticipate how the scenes on stage should unfold. And right now, EWI's chief commodity analyst and Futures Junctures Service editor Jeffrey Kennedy shows you that the "stage" for commodities is set for one of the most dramatic "performances" in recent memory.

Forex markets are no picnic, with their 24-hour-a-day trading. They are also not "anchored" to a hard asset like natural resources, which makes them more vulnerable to constant fluctuations. Not surprisingly, forex media reports are likewise in a constant state of flux. Yet forex markets are NOT impossible to navigate. Elliott Wave International has united two of its top instructors -- Jim Martens, editor of EWI's Currency Specialty Service, and Jeffrey Kennedy, co-editor of EWI's Futures Junctures Service -- for the ultimate "dream team" of teaching how to trade forex markets via Elliott wave analysis.

You may not have realized that in real terms, 6 of the 8 major Asian-Pacific markets Global Market Perspective covers each month still trade below their peaks of the early 1990s -- or even the late 1980s. Does that mean that the Asian bull markets have been a "fake"?
