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.

SPX has reached its primary objective of 2400 and pulled back. There is a 2410 adjunct which could still be reached if the index can regain its upside momentum starting Monday. The daily indicators have still not given a sell signal, and...
Renewed stock market momentum beyond the SPX 2300 projection target has brought about and extreme in bullish sentiment which normally calls for a correction. IF, as a cycle analyst is forecasting, we are approaching the peak of the 17-...
“Don’t fight the trend” is a cardinal rule of technical analysis! When SPX reached its 2300 projection, it was expected to pull back, helped by divergences which were showing in various time frames and by topping intermediate cycles...
After Monday’s sharp drop, SPX held at an important short-term support level and rallied after the jobs report came out on Friday. This move is essentially a test of the high, but it could expand into more distribution which could even...

SPX has filled the P&F count which was established last February, at the 1810 low. It would now be normal for the upside momentum derived from last week’s run-up to 2300 to dissipate, as a distribution top is being created. This,...
Last week was not decisive since SPX continued to trade in a narrow, volatile range. The coming one should be if on Monday we rally into a 15-day cycle top and reverse on Tuesday without having reached the ultimate 2300 projection. In...
