TSAA-SF Monthly Virtual Member Gathering TSAA-SF Monthly Event February 4, 2025 (Tue) at 5:00 PM PT TITLE: “A Perspective on Artificial Intelligence and Financial Markets”, by Mike Jones GUEST: DESCRIPTION OF THE TALK: News announcements regarding recent Artificial Intelligence innovations continue to send Financial Markets roiling with very little advanced notice. As new product offerings are brought to market, the shock of disruptive effects are often felt globally throughout the system. For example, the recent Deep Seek announcement had an immediate severe negative impact. It seems to have caught everyone by surprise and come out of the clear blue sky. During these events, and in the wake of their impact, News Commentators and Subject Matter Experts rush to discuss the root causes, which ultimately rely on foundational concepts in Computer Science. Yet, very little time and attention is given to explaining how it all really works. By sharing a few insights into the inner workings of these principles, I seek to illuminate some fundamental aspects of Computer Science so that we can all be better informed consumers of news information.

"Behavioural Inflection Point"
Market sentiment hit a "Behavioural Inflection Point" across risk proxies YTD, already pricing in the so-called "Fed dovish pivot", as RWA cited in a recent CNBC interview. However, there are several growing indications that the market is overly optimistic on economic growth-market valuations and still aggressively positioned for Fed cuts, while vulnerable to either a policy mistake or/and recession risk. Additionally, a triple whammy of headwinds remain, notably momentum unwind from extremes, rotation fragility and cycle asymmetric risk.

Recent Webinar: Anatomy of a Trade Date: Apr 26, 2022 at 5-6 PM Pacific Time (Recording free for dues paying members; become a member here) About Frantz Herr: Frantz Herr is a private investor who bought his first stock in 1974 - a semiconductor company (unfortunately it wasn't Intel!). He pursued his investing passion professionally for three decades as an advisor at Merrill Lynch, retiring in 2017. He learned of Richard D. Wyckoff in an investor chat room in 2016, and has been a fervent student of the methodology ever since. After mentoring with David Weis in 2018, Frantz continued his study with Roman Bogomazov at Wyckoff Analytics. Frantz is certain he holds the record for the number of times taking Roman's Wyckoff Trading Course 2, The Practicum. Frantz has solidified his connection with Wyckoff Analytics over the years. Along with John Colucci, he records a weekly YouTube series "Anatomy of the Trade" in which he and John post analyze completed trades submitted by students of Wyckoff Analytics. Frantz is also the leader of The Process Group, a small membership of elite traders at Wyckoff Analytics devoted to raising their trading practices to the highest level. The program John and I will be presenting could be titled "Anatomy of a Trade - how we post analyze our trades for continuous improvement within the context of Wyckoff methodology" About John Colucci, Jr. John Colucci, Jr. has been involved in stock market and financial analysis for over 30 years. From the early days as a corporate bankruptcy and insolvency attorney, Mr. Colucci poured over financial statements, budgets and cashflow projections to determine the feasibility of financial plans presented to creditors. After early training in forensic financial analysis and fraud detection, Mr. Colucci took an interest in stock market investing from a fundamental perspective. After a series of hard taught lessons beginning in 1987, technical analysis became a bigger focus for investment analysis. After working through the quasi fundamental/technical system developed by William J. O’Neil, Mr. Colucci’s Wyckoffian journey began with the search for meaning in the phrase, “the stock is under accumulation.” After numerous books, blog articles, courses and special events with many of the great Wyckoffian’s of our time, Mr. Colucci is primarily a long/short technical stock and futures trader using Wyckoffian principles--with an occasional financial statement sojourn to celebrate old times. Scanning and filtering are particular passions for Mr. Colucci. TSAA-SF's 2022 Market Outlook - Free Recording Martin Pring presents his financial market and economic Outlook for 2022 in two parts.

Although he has researched other technical indicators and studies, he has stated that he has not found anything that yet that can compare to what, or as much as the RSI offers. Most traders who use the RSI look to it to spot Bullish and Bearish Divergence between price and momentum. Andrew has shown that his "Range Rules" are much more valuable in identifying the trend through the "shift" in the range. Divergences are merely just an overextension of the current move and actually a detour from the primary trend.

True, some TSAA-SF members have been involved for decades, but the newly indoctrinated make up a growing percentage of members and they cite the legacy of knowledge sharing as the biggest benefit of membership. On this characteristic of the TSAA-SF, we pride ourselves greatly. What makes the TSAA-SF unique among IFTA societies? Our identity as a closely-knit group of chartists. Newer members learn from older members, and the camaraderie is noticeable at your first TSAA-SF meeting. In this modern age, and with the harsh realities of the COVID-19 pandemic, we instituted a big push in 2019 to take all of our speaker content online. So far the response has been amazing and we think the 2020 Annual Conference – our 50th Anniversary event – will showcase the value of membership in the TSAA-SF. We hope you will join us!
