User Guide - International Metals Outlook

 
Welcome to the International Metals Outlook. Here you'll find the perspective you need to support sound trading decisions in the metals market. 

The International Metals Outlook presents an in depth examination of the technical conditions of the metals markets. Using the Wave Principle in conjunction with technical analysis, I provide monthly, weekly, daily and intraday forecasts of the outlook for the metals markets.

Our overriding objective is to provide subscribers with a clear and concise picture of where the markets are likely to go and what the probabilities are. When weI have a strong conviction we will let you know, when we are uncertain of the outlook we will also not hesitate to tell you that. The key is to identify high confidence outlooks when they present themselves to put the odds in one’s favor as much as possible. In addition, it is just as important is to avoid those situations when the outlook is unclear and it is best to simply stand aside and be patient.

It is important to remember that Elliott Wave analysis does not provide certainty about any one market outcome; rather, it's an objective means of assessing the relative probabilities of possible future market outcomes. If you are not familiar with Elliott Wave analysis, we would encourage you to spend some time learning the principles and reinforce your understanding by explaining them to a novice. A link to Elliott Wave educational material is located in the upper right hand corner of each web page.

Gold and Silver updates come with intraday charts and commentary throughout the NYMEX Pit session. We update Platinum, LME Copper and Aluminum, and Comex Copper at the beginning of the (New York) day session, and will add additional commentary if market conditions warrant. All metals markets have an end of day commentary with daily chart analysis. Lead, Zinc, Tin, and Nickel are also covered, but with daily-weekly-monthly charts only.

For gold and silver stock investors a daily analysis is provided each morning of the HUI index. Also included are a chart and analysis of Newmont Mining (NEM) and the new gold stock ETF (GDX) will also be included when enough trading history is collected.

We also encourage subscribers to email questions or ideas. We enjoy the feedback, but it also helps ensure that the International Metals Outlook is working as well as it can for you.

Note: At Elliott Wave International, we pride ourselves on independent and objective analysis. These values extend throughout our analytical department, so there is not "house wave count" that each analyst must be in line with. Our analysts are free to interpret and forecast markets based upon their personal experience and skill, using the Wave Principle and supporting technical analysis.

That means on occasion, two EWI analysts may arrive at different conclusions for the same market. Usually an apparent conflict turns out to be simply a matter of analysts addressing a different time frame. Yet there are times when two analysts do differ sharply in their interpretation of a pattern. Such differences are usually resolved in the short run as continuing market action makes clear which of the interpretations is actually unfolding; some resolve more slowly.

We treasure the complete independence and objectivity of our analysis. Thought-provoking research is what EWI is all about. Every day, we strive to meet the exceptional high standards of analysis set forth by Bob Prechter when he started our firm in 1979.
