Happy 160th Birthday, Charles Dow

By Susan C. Walker

"The method I employ every day has been around since the 1930s, and it works as well as, if not better than, any newfangled technical analysis method for which you must buy some expensive computer software. My method is a form of technical analysis based on the Elliott Wave Principle, which Ralph N. Elliott worked out via hundreds of hand-drawn charts, well before the dawn of charting software..."

US Stocks Rise As Bernanke's Comments Provide Boost -- VERSUS -- U.S. stocks wavered Friday as comments from Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke reinforced expectations for the central bank to move to prop up the economy.

Financial Markets: Inefficient, Patterned, Predictable
We owe the remarkable discovery of the Elliott Wave Principle to Ralph Nelson Elliott, born on July 28, 1871.

By Vadim Pokhlebkin
7/26/2010 6:00:00 PM

The Elliott Wave Principle's main claim -- and the hardest one to swallow -- is that mass investor behavior is not random, but patterned. And since it's patterned, it is also predictable. This assertion goes against most economic theories, which claim precisely the opposite: that markets are random and unpredictable. The dominant theory among these is the Efficient Market Hypothesis...

Does Elliott Wave Analysis Work on Individual Stocks?
Yes, but with one important caveat.

By Vadim Pokhlebkin
7/28/2009 10:30:00 AM

"Does the Elliott Wave Principle apply to individual stocks?" This question is one of the most frequent that EWI readers ask. To answer it, you have to understand how the Wave Principle works and accept its two basic premises: 1) Markets trends reflect the collective emotions of investors, and 2) Markets are patterned, not random. Of course, these assertions go against the mainstream investment assumptions...
