Andre Gratian
Expert Market Analyst & Founder of Market Turning Points
When Andre Gratian was a stock broker years ago, a friend introduced him to technical analysis of the market. Consequently, it is not an exaggeration to say that Andre fell in love with this approach! Ever since then, it has become an increasingly important part of his professional life. Gratian has studied the works of Wyckoff, Edwards & Magee, Edward J. Dewey (cycles) and many others. However, one of my most profitable undertaking has probably been to study Point & Figure charting, which he finds invaluable in analyzing stocks and indices. If he were restricted to one methodology, this is the one that he would choose. This well-rounded background has given him what he feels to be a special insight into the stock market, facilitating the recognition of meaningful patterns and the ‘turning points’ in all trends, whether they be short or long term. Andre feels very comfortable discussing the stock market and passing on meaningful information to others. His subscribers include individuals and money managers throughout the world. Moreover, his Newsletters are currently published on several financial sites, here and abroad.

Current Position of the Market: SPX: Long-term trend – The bull market is continuing with a top expected in the low 3000s. Intermediate trend – The intermediate correction from 2872 could nowcontinue until May-June.
SPX could end Friday’s strong rally on Monday and start a minor correction. Cycles are, essentially, negatively biased until the middle of May, so the current structure is a little uncertain -- but will define itself over the next few days...
After extending its recovery to 2789 and pulling back, SPX is again at another crossroad where I must decide on its next path. The bullish choice could take it to a retest of its high of 2872, while additional weakness next week could...
SPX may be close to ending its correction and resuming its rally from the 2540 low. It will first need to face a hurdle caused by some minor cycles bottoming next week and in March. A move back below 2700 would most likely extend the...
After rallying from its 2540 low as quickly as it came down, SPX completed a .618 retracement of its decline and looks ready to move down again. Since there is no distribution at its last Friday high, it is possible that it will have to...
SPX is engaged in the first intermediate correction since the one which bottomed in January 2016, at 1810. Although it found strong initial support at 2533 on Friday and rallied over a hundred points, it is too early to declare that the...
Last week, principally on Friday, SPX (and the market in general) experienced the sharpest and most spontaneous correction in quite a while with little, if any, warning. For reasons stated in the above analysis, I feel that the bias does...
I have seriously underestimated the extent of the uptrend which started with the low of the 7-year cycle at 1810. I was looking for a phase count to take us to a 2660 top, but that turned out to be a short-term stop with SPX only pausing...
SPX entered its projection zone at the beginning of last week, and has begun to show signs of a profit-taking/distribution phase which should eventually lead to the formation of a fairly important top and the deepest correction since late...
SPX is ostensibly approaching a time-price projection; but it could hesitate reaching the final high before having an intermediate reversal, even though it is in sight, unless the move ends in a buying climax which would bring about a...
