Welcome to 21st-century technical analysis! In PredictingAny Market, we are going to shatter myths, gore sacred cows, and build a better mousetrap.
For the past several hundred years, technicians have relied heavily on price and volume studies as the most important factors on a price charr. Don't get me wrong, these are very important. However, they do not give us a complete picture. Time studies are the least understood, yet they are a critically important element in technical analysis. Although traders comprehend price targets very well, most people have very litde idea as to what really causes trend changes. Do you ever wonder why a chart hits a certain price target and lingers for days until finally one day it drops?
Why did it drop on this day as opposed to that day? This area has always been one of the biggest problems for traders. The mission of this book is to close that gap. In the process, we will also open the door ofyour mind so you can have a greater understanding ofwhy price action behaves the way it does. It is a wonderful world of possibilities.
