TSAA-SF's 2022 Market Outlook - Free Recording

Martin Pring presents his financial market and economic Outlook for 2022 in two parts. In the first video (link here), he shows his iconic Econometric Technical Analysis research on the current position and possible future direction of stock markets, both domestic and international. In part 2 (link here), he turns his attention to the forces impacting inflation trends, commodity prices, interest rates, the U.S. dollar, and gold.

For a number of years it has been a tradition for Martin Pring to present his outlook for the year ahead to the TSAA-SF membership at Golden Gate University. In recent years it has become a virtual event.

This event has been offered, without charge, to the public to raise awareness to the Technical Securities Analysts Association of San Francisco (TSAASF.org) and the wonderful events that are offered throughout the year and this year that tradition continues. You are encouraged to become a member of this storied organization if you have a passion for financial markets, trading and Technical Analysis.

TSAA-SF free event: Andrew Cardwell

Date: Feb 9, 2021 at 5-6 PM PST 

Andrew Cardwell:

Andrew started his work with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) in May of 1978. 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.

“Old School is New School”

With 50 years of perspective, we approached the theme of this year’s anniversary conference as though we’ve been members the whole time! 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!

Speakers include:

• John Bollinger, CFA, CMT - Creator of Bollinger Bands
• Linda Raschke - Author of “Trading Sardines” with over 35 years of trading experience
• Arthur Hill, CMT - Chief Technical Strategist and main author at TrendInvestorPro.com
