"Prediction is difficult, especially of the future."
-Niels Bohr, 1922 Nobel Laureate in Physics

   
  
We are endowed from birth with ample hindsight. Foresight on the other hand must be developed,especially if one is working in the financial or energy markets. Values for the S&P 500 Index or for Crude Oil cannot be predicted on the basis of luck, fundamental analysis or any combination of the two. To predict prices with consistency and accuracy the price action must be analyzed directly.Technical analysis is the field of study that aims to predict the duration and extent of price trends. And the forecasts arise from the study of the price action itself.

The United-ICAP technical advisory service builds on over twenty-five years of continuous study of the financial and energy markets and, prior to that, on post graduate physics research in complexity theory and turbulent systems.

The verdict of our long experience with the markets is clear and compelling. A properly constructed system of technical analysis correctly employed can be used to predict price trends and key supportand resistance points. To those from a background in fundamental analysis and ‘the efficient markethypothesis’ the notion that a financial market can be predicted may exhaust ones reserves of credibilitybefore one has even observed the system at work. So our advice is to reserve judgement until onehas seen the system at work for a couple weeks. One needs to follow our analysis in real time. So we offer a FREE THREE WEEK TRIAL subscription to our technical analysis service. This web-site is the delivery mechanism.

For those whose background is in fundamental analysis we must emphasize that technical analysis is not another way of doing fundamental analysis. It is a completely separate and unique approach with its own tools, terms, language and grammar. Fundamental analysis is useful is judging the relative strength of market supply and demand factors. The strength of technical analysis is price prediction. Different tools for different jobs. Our service focuses on price prediction using the tools of technical analysis. The other purpose of the free trail period is that it enables those new to technical analysis
