Yes, we have added a number of sales links to the webpage lately;
since the response to the voluntary donation link has been light, to say the least
(compared to the hundreds of users of this site), "affiliate links" seem to be a reasonable alternative --
you don't pay any more for items or services when you click through from here,
but we get a small commission which helps offset the costs
of maintaining the site and the information it provides to you.


Response Time in reference to Internet traffic is how long it takes for a chunk of data to travel from point A to point B and back (round trip). A typical response time on the Internet is 200 ms, which is 200 milliseconds (thousandths of a second) = 1/5th of one second.      The Internet Traffic Report monitors the flow of data around the world. It then displays a value between zero and 100. Higher values indicate faster and more reliable connections.

NOTICE
I have finally completed a project that has been on the "back burner" for a while.
We now have a chart set showing about 17 weeks of charts for each of the
DJ-30 component stocks. This is an "official record" of what EWA predicted
each of those weeks -- so it should give us a good idea of how accurate the
"follow thru" is for the EWA predictions.

So far, I've not gone through the charts to see the results myself.
I'm posting it here since the question came up in a TCnet discussion,
which prompted me to finish the project.

The file can be downloaded from here.

Open Outcry • On the Floor of an Exchange

[ about a six minute sound clip that you may find fascinating - about 4 MB ]

I strongly suggest you download the file - by using 'right click' + 'save target as...' -
and play it from your hard drive rather than from the web.

Every business day, the men and women of the New York Mercantile Exchange stand around in huge circles, shouting at each other, setting the price of the world's commodities. Sound artist Ben Rubin created a layered soundscape of this unusual ritual, known as "open outcry" trading. This piece is part of a work commissioned by Creative Time, a public arts organization, to commemorate the reopening of the Winter Garden of the World Financial Center.

Credit for this goes to "The Next Big Thing" radio program on NPR,
broadcast the week of April 25, 2003.

SPECIAL   FEATURES

FirstWave has given some "primers" on using various indicators such as the mobo bands
and his new interpretation of using ADX to spot trends and blahs.
I have extracted these primer segments into small files so they can remain here on the site longer.

[ these files play directly from the website - they don't download ]

latest addition   What the heck is a STAMP pattern? (060809)

latest addition   Primer on the Roses & chocolates phenomenon (060809)

Primer on Using SNAPBACK© patterns
Updated 060809 (includes 060616)
Note: the new section should automatically load and play the older section at the end.

SNAPBACK©
With the understanding that all price movements in all trending markets behave in a wave pattern, we have set out to identify the beginning and end of these waves, until the price trend reverses or ends.

The SnapBack© template identifies temporary price dips versus price top rollovers, or fake-out market rallies.

We have seen trading improve from 60% probability to over 90% using SnapBack© and other WallStreetTeachers' techniques.

(The term "Snapback" is ?2006 by WallStreetTeachers.com)


Primer on Using SOAP and SNAPBACK patterns.

SOAP (Served On A Platter)
The SOAP pattern identifies the high probability of price tops and bottoms on any time period. It is useful in eliminating false buy and sell signals. This concept takes a short-term and medium-term Stochastic, strips off the SD from each of the SKs, and then re-combines the two SK stochastics to give us pure stochastic crossovers.

Primer on ADX indicator

NOTE: Tradestation users may be interested in my TOTALY NEW
and SUPER EASY TO USE combination of the ADX and ±DMI indicators
described HERE
!

New ADX (Advance Decline Crossover)
ADX can be employed to evaluate the strength of a trend, be it up or down. In conjunction with David Elliott's Technical Timing Patterns™ such as SOAP and SnapBacks, ADX can reveal the strength of buy and sell signals that indicate the timing of explosive market moves.

Unique use of DMI indicators

most people would not think of !! [15 min. video]


Primer on MOBO bands (March 17, 2009) [197 MB .mp4]
Secondary primer on MOBO bands.

MOBO (Momentum Breakouts)
Price momentum breakouts give us buy and sell signals.
We get buy and sell signals from price Momentum Breakouts by modifying a standard deviation study to show us when "A" stocks breakout to the upside and when "F" stocks breakout to the down side.
We can also adapt the MOBO settings to other technical indicators for entry and exit signals on any time period.

We have no primer on MAPP patterns.

MAP (Moving Average Price Patterns)
Predictable price behaviors occur around the four major moving averages.
On May 26th, 1896 Charles Dow introduced the industrial average, the Dow Jones 30. Since then there has been a repeatable and predictable price behavior pattern around the four major moving averages and this index. We do away with moving average crossovers, and switch to using a behavioral price pattern to find entry and exit prices, while investing in stock, futures, and indexes on all time periods.
[see a chart with nice "Ice Hole Failure" pattern]


We have no primer on FLAT wave patterns.

Elliott Flat Waves
The indicator that gives you tomorrow's Wall Street Journal today!
This technical indicator has been modified to short term TSV (time segmented volume) time periods to give us waves with flat tops and bottoms, indicating a price reversal on the next time period we are using. We can use this indicator intra-day or for long term directional turns.
