In April 2013 the EURUSD forex pair formed a trough that seemed a very likely candidate for the expected 40-week cycle trough, even if it was strictly speaking 18 days early.

Last week I presented a short trade opportunity in the S&P 500 (the ES futures contract) which unfolded in an absolutely textbook fashion, demonstrating again the profit potential of the FLD Trading Strategy (we recently announced that we are bringing the FLD Trading Strategy to our popular Hurst Signals service, so […]
You probably know that I find the interaction between price and the FLD (Future Line of Demarcation) to be the most powerful trading approach to the markets. We launched our online FLD Trading Strategy course in late October of last year, and you can see the very rewarding results of […]
From mid-November last year until the end of May this year the US markets moved upwards in a very narrow channel, effectively etching a straight line onto the chart. It was a frustrating 27 weeks for a cyclic analyst, because of course we rely upon the evidence of the various […]

Hurst’s Principle of Variation tells us to expect that cycle wavelengths vary from their average length, resulting in a dynamic and constantly changing cyclic model. Hurst never discussed by how much a cycle wavelength can vary, and there are times when we cannot say for certain what the magnitude of […]
The ratios between the wavelengths of the cycles in Hurst’s Nominal Cyclic Model are mostly 2:1, in other words each longer cycle in the model has a wavelength twice as long as the cycle shorter than it (with the exception of the 18-month to 54-month ratio). The result is that […]
Two quick reminders: The special offer for the launch of our Hurst Signals (2) service ends this week. The new service has been created in response to the great feedback we received in answer to the question “what do you want from a Hurst service?”. It presents an analysis overview, […]
