In 1999, Bob Prechter asked me to edit Monthly Futures Junctures, a brand new service designed to find and recommend the best opportunities in commodity markets. I accepted the role and immediately loved it. Like many analysts, I love the challenge of finding the clearest wave patterns among dozens of markets. But I soon found myself needing to scratch another itch � teaching.
I began my career as a small trader, so I know firsthand how hard it can be to get simple explanations of methods that consistently work. In more than 10 years as an analyst since then, I�ve learned many lessons, and I don�t think that they should have to be learned the hard way. That�s why I decided to start writing Trader�s Classroom sections for Monthly Futures Junctures. The response has been great.
Now, I�m pleased to present The Trader�s Classroom Collection, a selection of my favorite columns from the past two years of Monthly Futures Junctures. I hope that the following lessons will give you some insights into analysis and trading that you won�t find anywhere else. Keep in mind that the collection is not designed to be a comprehensive course or to replace essential Elliott wave resources but should be used in conjunction with the Wave Principle.
