Charles Nenner founder of cycle forcaster was bought out by goldman sahcs
Charles Nenner’s work utilizes a unique algorithm that he developed early in his career. It factors-in multiple cycle movements, and includes the Elliott Wave theory as a foundation. From his historical research Nenner has identified and quantified cycle turns for just about all markets.
The basic thesis to Cycle Forecaster is that human interpretation of events and trends does not change over time. Therefore, detailed past analyses–going back many decades–in combination with the Elliott Wave Analysis, Gann Analysis, Oscillator Analysis, and others, can lead to predictive postures for current and future investment decisions.
