Spotting Tops & Bottoms Before It HappensSpotting Tops & Bottoms Before It Happens
Spotting tops and bottoms before it happens is definitely the Holy Grail to making afortune in the capital market. Traders have been trying for ages to devise such a tradingmethod. It doesn’t matter which market you are trading; Forex, Options, Futures or Commodities, you can make a fortune as long as you are able to sell before prices startdropping and to buy just before prices start rising.The problem is, is it even possible?Is it possible to tell when a car is going to stop when the driver’s foot is still on theaccelerator? Is it possible to tell when a thrown ball is going to fall when it is still risingstrongly? Of course not! At least not with any degree of consistency or confidence.If there is a way to predict exactly when a stock would start turning around, why is JimKramer giving it away as a free report? Let’s face it, anyone who tries to predict the stock market has been rewarded with nothing but disappointment. “Top analysts” trying to predict and call a bottom to the stock market has been rewarded only with more downsideand losses. “Top analysts” trying to predict and call a top to the stock market has beenrewarded time and again with nothing more than a total loss of profits as they sell andwatch the market go higher and higher.So, can we now agree that there is no way to “Predict” when the market will hit a top or  bottom before it actually happens?

This means that whileone could not spot a top or bottom BEFORE it happens, one could certainly spot a top or  bottom EARLY in its life cycle!While we could not predict when a car is going to stop when the driver’s foot is still onthe accelerator, we could definitely tell when it has started to happen when the driver’sfoot leaves the accelerator and moves onto the brake pedal. While we could not predictwhen a rising ball would start falling, we could definitely tell when it has started tohappen when the ball stops rising.Yes, there are plenty of technical indications and techniques that you can use to identifywhen a move has started to happen and then take early action but you would definitelynot be able to tell with any degree of reliability when it will happen BEFORE it happens.That is why professionals like myself trade NEAR tops and bottoms and not before them.While I would not be buying in at the absolute bottom or selling at the absolute top, the
