ACCURATE MARKET, SECTOR, AND COMMODITY FORECASTING USING CROWD PSYCHOLOGY, ELLIOT WAVE THEORY, SENTIMENT INDICATORS, AND OTHER PROPRIETARY FORECASTING TOOLS.
The Market Trend Forecast includes short, intermediate, and long-term forecasts using proprietary Elliot Wave analysis coupled with technical indicators and other pattern recognition methods as developed by David Banister, our Chief Strategist. David's amazing work on Gold has been profiled on TheStreet.com with Alix Steel, Jon Nadler at Kitco.com, and multiple websites due to his accuracy.
David believes that markets move based on crowd psychology as evidenced by Fibonacci fractals, wave patterns, and sentiment. David uncovers the clues and finds the probabilities to help with forecasting key pivotal moves at tops and bottoms. Forecasts are provided mostly for Gold, Silver and the SP500 indexes. On occasion, Canadian indices, some foreign indices like the Shanghai Index in China, The HUI Gold Index, Emerging Market Indexes, and various sectors of the markets when warranted.
Unlike other forecasting letters and online services, David is very clear on his forecasts. TMTF provides specific pivot points, reversal areas, and top and bottoming forecasts in all facets of the markets covered. TMTF will also review historical market action to determine if there are factors relating to the current markets that may come into play. TMTF will also discuss counter-intuitive ways of viewing the market technical action. We will look at topping indicators and bottoming indicators most services do not discuss. We will provide links to articles or commentaries that we believe are important to read as well. In short, we will keep you very well armed and prepared for potentially major short term to intermediate term moves that you can profit from and protect yourself with.

Recent Comment on our Gold Forecast from Jon Nadler of Kitco.com
Others focused mainly on chart data and concluded that not only has a top been put into place in gold but that –inevitable upward corrections notwithstanding-the metal is headed for significantly lower value zones. One such detailed analysis –made just three days prior to yesterday’s bloodbath-is certainly worthy of the ‘replay’ button being pushed (maybe several times even) in the wake of the Thursday cave-in. Active Trading Partners’ David Banister appears to have been among the very few who rang the alarm bell prior to the conflagration in the market.

(TMTF advised to short from 1862-1907, then covered at $1724 3 days later!!)

Recent Forecast Samples and Results:
August 2011- David forecasted a likely bottom in the SP 500 between 1096-1100 right after the Standard and Poor's Debt Downgrade news came out with the SP 500 at 1198. The SP 500 bottomed at 1101 that same week, and David stuck with his bottom call the whole way through. Among his public articles were "Bears yell fire in empty theater" which was widely read.
August 2011- David warned in advance of a coming Top in Gold and advised his subscribers to reduce, hedge, or short positions at 1862, 1880, and 1907 pivots. Gold topped at $1910 and fell $155 an ounce in under 48 hours from his top call. Subscribers profited by holding DZZ which shorts Gold at 2x leverage. David had an article on Kitco.com warning of a major correction in Gold 1 day before the crash.
In the late summer of 2010, David forecasted a run in the SP 500 to 1220 when it was below 1080 for his subscribers. Once the SP 500 hit 1227, David then forecasted a sideways to down chopping market for awhile. TMTF had our subscribers riding the market up the entire way from 1074 to 1227 and the entire time advised against shorting the rally.
In late August 2010, David forecasted an explosive move up in Silver. At the time, Silver was at $18.73 per ounce, and his chart and target
specifically predicted $29 per ounce. About 10 weeks later, Silver hit $29.00 on the nose and then pulled back. A stunningly accurate forecast.
In Mid April, David wrote an article for Kitco.com predicting a top in the Markets and an A B C correction would begin to unfold. The SP 500 dropped from 1221 to 1040 over the next several weeks.
In late June, David forecasted on TMTF and Kitco.com and TheStreet.Com that Gold was peaking and would drop materially. Gold dropped $50 an ounce the following day and David remains bearish intermediately on Gold.
In late February 2009, David was one of very few market strategists to turn bullish on the markets with an article on 321Gold.com. He forecasted that the market was about to turn bullish and nobody knew it. He outlined several reasons why using counter-intuitive methodology and Elliott Wave based charts. The Markets all ralled for the following ten months, reaching Dow targets David outlined 10 months before they were hit.
In August of 2009, David predicted a massive move up in Gold and Gold stocks with a 321Gold article. At the time Gold was near $900 and he predicted $1225-$1375 as the next top. The HUI index rallied nearly 40% in the next 4 months and Gold ran from $900 to $1220.
In early December of 2009, David predicted for his ATP subscribers a drop in Gold to about $1,070 US for a pivot bottom. Gold bottomed twice in the next 60 days right near $1,070.
On January 18th, 2010, David wrote an article and forecast that all conditions for a major market top were now in place. The indices all peaked the following day and the DOW dropped 800 points in the next few weeks.

I have known David for a few years and his ability to identify market trends or pivots in advance is impressive. I can't comment on all of his past forecasts, but I do know he is extremely accurate with Gold forecasting and ETF reversals. I have followed his Active Trading Partners service with interest and have seen him consistently make excellent calls. He seems to be developing a very loyal following.
