The Elliott Wave Theorist

“As always (at least from the 1990s when I first started following you and EWI and after reading all of your books), I find today’s issue (Sept. 24, 2025) of Elliott Wave Theorist not just fascinating, but genius quality. I always have and always will admire your work. Again, I credit you with unknowingly teaching me Elliott waves and Fibonacci multiples/retracement through all of the books you have published over the last several decades. I am truly amazed at your research, dedication and analysis. The three statues for the Mount Rushmore of stock market technical analysis or just analysis in general: Leonardo Fibonacci, R.N. Elliott, Bob Prechter. Seriously, I’d love to see that happen.” – Dale Woodson, Woodson Wave Report, LLC

“To me, Bob is THE guy when it comes to forecasting and understanding what really moves markets, and sharing that understanding with the rest of the world. After so many years reading Bob’s work, when I get my monthly copy of EWT it’s like getting a letter from a close friend.” – Steve R.

“The vast majority of economists and financial forecasters never lay their reputation on the line…they just roll with whatever the status quo is. You, however, armed with the most fantastic tool mankind has ever seen, take the road less traveled (and I deeply appreciate that). I couldn’t ask for a better captain for my financial ship!” – Kyle C.

“I have been a subscriber and follower of yours and EWI since 2015 and have throughly enjoyed your books and EWT publications.  I have also followed your recommendations to buy gold and silver since early 2024 and short term Treasury Bills which have helped my family immensely.” – Ed W.

“Discovering the EWT, for me, has been one of those life-altering, meant-to-be events.  I respect your work, as well as the clarity and ease in which you explain it, more than I can explain in this email.  You are an artist as much as you are an analyst, which is why you excel in your craft.  Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, you have provided the tools and wisdom to link my personality with understanding how the stock market breathes and I am forever grateful!!” – Brent M.

“The data is just astonishing!” – Rod R.

“You do truly excellent work and are an inspiration to me.  Many thanks for all of your great work.  Although I am a full-time trader, The Theorist is the report I look forward to the most every month.” – Markham G.  

“I keep telling everyone that one day you’ll win a Nobel prize. It’s only a matter of time. Thank you for being a beacon in the night over the years. It’s been an incredibly fascinating journey and without your guidance I would not have progressed much beyond a state of unimaginable ignorance.” – C. Sage

“The man is absolutely a genius. It is a privilege to be a subscriber and to learn from such a person. I must read the monthly newsletters at least 3 or 4 times- I read something new each time, something I missed the time before, the complex subject matter is difficult to convey but I enjoy it when the little light in my head finally comes on and I say to myself, “Oh, that’s what he means.” Keep up the good work!” – Larry O.

“Your insight is incredible and is nothing short of genius.” – Bob C.

“The quality of your publications and their content is unparallel in any of the other publications in existence.” – Nick H.

“You are to be congratulated on your life work, namely, EWT.“ – Julie H.

“Every time I read EWT, it takes me weeks before I come over the overwhelming feeling of realization that how far behind the investment world is. I don’t know how long it will take for people to wake up. But I guess that’s not for me to decide or worry about.” – Mukul P.

“Congratulations for the perfect timing.” – Meftun T.

“I feel have come to truly understand and respect the big picture work you are doing.  Hopefully, I can help pass the baton along to others.   My eyes have now been opened.” – Ron T.

“Prechter never fails to astonish me with his fibo analysis.” – Khaled

“Let me say that, in my view, Elliott Wave Theorist is state of the art market analysis and Bob Prechter is a historical figure in the context of capital markets research.” – Dimitris

“Now, what I have come to learn about myself as a result of years of reading your publications, is that I can read ALL of your work now and immediately “get it” on the first reading, each and every time, while remaining calm, logical and using the information as I see fit for all around me, including the society that would likely reject most of my thinking.“ – R. T.

“Robert Prechter, you are gifted with your words which paint a clear picture of truth and transparency in the readers mind, you take all of us on a wonderful monthly trip… in a way you’re a rock star. Keep up the great work!” – Chris M.

“Your intelligent insight is always appreciated, in fact I am addicted to it.” – Larry O.

“Precter’s analysis is mind-blowing. One thing that makes this man is great that he only sticks to wave counts and has great control over his emotions which lacks in most of Elliott wave analysists.” – Ashish B.

“Sometimes the breadth, depth and elevation of it all goes beyond any words I could find to attempt to describe it — though “epic” comes to mind for both the situation and your work.  I am especially fascinated whenever you put the markets into multi-century (or beyond) perspective.  Intellectually, it is very satisfying.” – Gary G.

“I would like to say that I have been an admirer of Bob’s since the 80’s, when I was a floor trader in Chicago. While I have followed many market guru’s over the years, Bob is perhaps the only one who I have often referred to as a genius. I typically find myself praising Bob’s work and his Theorist letter is my most anticipated read of the month.” – Joseph J.

“Powerful, insightful, packed with valuable info.” – Rod R.

“Thanks for all of the valuable advice on keeping all of your money safe….sleeping at night is quite a nice thing!” – Craig R. 

“In time Elliott & Prechter and Frost etc. will undoubtedly be seen as the ones who discovered the key.  It will be interesting to see how many still refuse to accept it, no matter how accurate.  A funny quirk of human nature, when the answers are staring them in the face.  It’s almost as if they dont want to see.  I guess there are none so blind. Forever grateful and in awe.” – John T.

“I admit it.  I am an addict.  Whew!  I said it.  Although, not all things one is addicted to are bad for you.” – Ron T.

“The most compelling aspect to me is how Bob actually presents himself.  He isn’t your everyday run of the mill newsletter writer but more of a humble very knowledgeable individual on how the stock market functions.” – G. L.

“Your last call was to the penny. Keep up the good work.” – Bob N.

“I feel fortunate to have the benefit of your commentary in The Theorist. Thank you for your writings.” – Tom B.

“Thanks for your interim reports; they are very helpful!” – James T.

“Whether your writings and that of your sidekicks affects my “trading” or not, the reading is always very worthwhile if only for its understanding of modern life.  Thanks, and keep up the good work!” – Ken C.

“I have always been a contrarian thinker when it comes to the financial market, but I have always missed some important part of the picture until I came across the Wave Principle. Now the puzzle pieces have come together and everything begins to make sense… Thank you very much for the many, many years of hard work and sharing all this valuable insights of the market and human nature with me.” – Stanley W.

“Lots of people dismiss technical analysis as a version of the Rorshach ink test — you see what you want to see. So did I. Only after reading Conquer the Crash did I fully appreciate the depth of Prechter’s thesis. It’s plainly more than just parallel lines on a stock price chart. I am now a subscriber to The Elliott Wave Theorist. It may not always be right on the short-term moves, but EW theory is the only market-assessment framework I am comfortable with to get the big picture. I’m glad to have EWT in my arsenal; I only wish I had it earlier.” – Hatim H.

“The combined knowledge from The Theorist and The Socionomist allow me to make better decisions about my future whether it be investments, or household finance, or even disaster preparedness.” – M.A.

“Thanks for sharing your wonderful work and ideas for the modest price of a subscription.” – Gregory A.

“I have noticed that, particularly over the past year, whenever I have become too thoughtful or anxious or worried about something related to investments then “Poof” up pops a new Theorist or Interim Report that seems to DIRECTLY address the very things that I have been thinking or worried about. I do not know if the thought processes are simply in sync or what, but I do want you to know that I greatly appreciate it. More than I can put into words here. I especially appreciate the acknowledgement that there are ‘iffy’ elements in play and at risk, which is far better than an ‘Often Wrong, But Never In Doubt’ attitude; as well as the presentation of various alternative scenarios and the delineations of their possibilities and limits, as well as the examination of the thought processes that go into same. Kudos to all of you.” – Fred S.

“Bob is doing a wonderful job and great contribution to Technical Analysis in the form of enhancing Elliot Wave Analysis and taking it to the next level.” – Sanjay B.

“Your work with Elliott Waves and Socionomics have been formative intellectual influences that I have explicitly and implicitly incorporated into my writing and financial endeavors. Thank you and keep up the good work.” – Robert G.

“I appreciate your lifelong dedication to this field and all of your insights and your company’s outstanding service!” – John C.

“The work of R.N. Elliott– and your continuing elucidation of its application to all activities of man– will one day be seen as on par with the mapping of DNA.” – Earl T.  

“Robert is fantastic in his analysis as well as his understanding of the markets. He is very professional and a good teacher.”  – Tom G.

“The EW Theory has changed my outlook on life in general–I feel more in control of my circumstances.  It gives an order to life in what I perceived as a very chaotic world.  I even tried to chart my own 55 year life in Elliott Waves but soon realized that a chart from THE CREATOR would probably be needed for an accurate wave count.  Thanks to you and Mr. Prechter for your excellence in conveying Mr. Elliott’s work!” – Bruce Wood

“Your work has been an inspiration/education and it puts me one wave ahead not behind. It has organized history and the events that have made history–at least in my mind, and for that I am eternally grateful.” – Frank M.

“Many thanks Bob for having the guts to stick to the facts, rather than the fantasy.” – John B.

“In an era of compromise, your work is refreshing and an enlightenment. In our business, it approaches a precedent. All in all, the effort and time reflected in your books and publications has to be demanding, and is a true testament to professionalism and the work ethic. In my opinion, the Wave Principle is the single best solution to equity investment decision making.” – Sameul K.

“No one’s opinion was more sought after, more influential and more insightful than Robert Prechter’s.” – D. D.

“Over the years I’ve always admired your work–especially your innovative thinking and way with words.” – D. Davis

“Your forecasting is very real, educational and a lifesaver. Keep up the great work!” – Nicholas C.

“Of the numerous writers I’ve endured on matters financial and economic, your work strikes me as the most enlightening, erudite, well-reasoned, and scary–all of which makes for a good read. Evidently you have a high-caliber mind, and you’ve found a good target for it. Either that, or you blow a bundle on ghost-writers. Whichever. I enjoy your efforts, and reading you tends to quell the queasy feelings I get too often, these days, being an American.” – Randy F.

“I’ve never read a more accurate analysis of the US system in all of my years of studying the topic.” – Mark L.

“Your body of work has had a profound impact on how I see the world, and how I manage my assets. I wanted to say from with the utmost respect and appreciation, “Thank You”.” – S.G.

“I owe my gratitude to the legendary Sir Robert Prechter and the entire team at EWI (including Steven Hochberg, Chris Carolan, Mark Galasiewski, Alan Hall, Tom Denham, Pete Kendall) for the good work they are doing and the knowledge that institute is spreading.”

“The Elliott wave team (especialy Robert Precther) have a stunning grip on market forecasting. The best I’ve ever seen. It’s a shame I didnt discover you years ago.” – Mark H.

“I feel extremely prepared and ahead of the curve thanks to your excellent teachings and interpretations of the law of nature. Thinking socionomically has changed my life.  Thanks for keeping it real and telling it as the Principle dictates.” – J.M.

“Bob Prechter has an amazing ability to cogently analyze information from endless & extremely diverse sources, assimilate it, make sense of it, and then translate it into simple market forecasts that even a 5-year old can understand.” – MB

“You have taught me much about markets, and have always pushed yourselves for excellence, while delivering real value for my subscription.” – Rich L.

“You and your team set the standard for objective reporting and analysis. Bravo.” – Joseph J.

“Thank you Bob Prechter – without your guidance and quite a few books of yours that I have read (with yet more to read), novice subscribers like myself would be utterly lost.” – Alex N.

“I’ve been a subscriber for a few years and I’m constantly intrigued by your work.  Thank you for your great contribution to society and education.  Also, thank you for your persistence!” – TB

“Perhaps the world’s best-known technical analyst.” – Martin E.

“I read all your books and I’m a loyal fan of yours. History is going to prove what a GREAT MAN you are.” – Mike E.

“You are by far my favorite analyst.  You are the most original thinker I have ever come across.” – Lance M.

“Thank you for all the knowledge of the Wave Principle you have shared with me through your writings and the preservation of past writings on the subject.” – MN

“Thank you for adding a bit of sanity to financial forecasting.” – Nicholas L.

“Enjoyed the latest Theorist. Simply I just sit and watch the complacency of investors/public and professionals.” – John M.

“Great issue! The crowd’s behavior in all socio and financial areas reported wonderfully. And the stunning degree of the excesses has me slackjawed.”

“Great EWT! Really exciting stuff ahead!” – Lee M.

“For more than 35 years I have been fortunate enough to cover the financial community and market geniuses. Robert Prechter is right up there at the top.” – N. Cavuto

“Bob, when you meet this gentleman, you just know he’s going to be successful in his life. He just has a way about him that people just take to. He’s honest, he’s a very nice person and he’s brilliant.” – D. Diamond
