Consulting
Consulting — Independent Market Perspective
Experience Matters When Capital Is at Stake
Financial markets offer no shortage of commentary.
What is far rarer is structured, independent perspective built on long experience.
For more than four decades I have analyzed global markets through the lens of Elliott Wave structure, working with professional traders, institutions, and private investors seeking clarity on risk, opportunity, and positioning.
This consulting service gives you access to that analytical process — applied directly to the instruments you are evaluating.
Every chart and commentary is prepared personally by me.
There is no automation, templating, or outsourced research.
Professional Background
My market work spans general banking, global financial markets, and decades of Elliott Wave application across equities, commodities, currencies, and interest-rate markets. I have advised international institutions and professional trading organizations and conducted workshops for central banks and industry associations.
I am also the author of Five Waves to Financial Freedom, written to make a traditionally complex discipline accessible and practical.
This consulting offering reflects that same philosophy:
clarity, practicality, and independence of thought.
The Philosophy Behind the Analysis
Many Elliott Wave discussions emphasize labeling wave counts and alternate counts. While classification has value, it is not the objective.
Wave counts are not objective structures waiting to be discovered. They are interpretive frameworks — mental models used to assess market context. Their usefulness lies in guiding judgment about risk and positioning.
My work, therefore, focuses on a different question:
How can structural interpretation inform participation decisions?
Analysis is constructed to explore:
- Where exposure may be favorable or premature
- Where risk asymmetry may exist
- Where patience may be preferable to action
- Where assumptions may need reassessment
- How alternate structural scenarios affect positioning
Charts are presented not merely to display counts, but to clarify their implications. This reflects the practical orientation developed through decades of engagement with decision-makers whose central concern was never classification, but response.
This same philosophy underpins both my consulting and educational work.
What You Receive
A consulting request results in a tailored chart pack that may include:
- Primary and alternate structural interpretations
- Relevant timeframe perspectives
- Key levels affecting thesis validity
- Commentary explaining context and implications
The depth of analysis is determined by market structure — not by arbitrary limits.
Some requests require five charts. Others may involve twenty.
The objective is insight, not standardized output.
Two Ways to Obtain Analysis
Personalized Analysis — 2 Units
You specify the instrument.
I conduct a dedicated review and prepare charts addressing your request.
- Covers one ticker or instrument
- Requires several hours of focused work
- Typically delivered within 24 hours
- If workload requires additional time, I will inform you promptly and share an initial perspective while detailed work continues
To ensure quality and balance with writing and teaching commitments, I accept only a limited number of requests each week.
Occasional Chart Packs — 1 Unit
From time to time I release analysis on markets of broad interest (such as major indices).
These:
- Follow the same analytical approach
- Are available to anyone wishing to purchase
- Are issued without a fixed schedule
- Are shared when market structure warrants commentary
They provide a lighter-commitment way to engage with my work.
Unit Pricing
Consulting services operate on a unit system to simplify transactions across clients and jurisdictions.
- 1 Unit = USD $75
- Personalized Analysis: 2 Units
- Occasional Chart Pack: 1 Unit
Units are added to your Wavetimes account in advance and deducted when services are delivered.
Unused units are refundable at any time, without question.
Scope of Coverage
Analysis focuses on instruments traded outside India, including:
- Global equities
- Commodities
- Cryptocurrencies
- Foreign exchange
Due to regulatory constraints, I do not provide technical analysis on individual Indian stocks.
Expectations and Boundaries
This service is intended to strengthen structured thinking about market context.
It is not:
- A signal service
- A trading alert system
- Intraday guidance
- Portfolio management
- Guaranteed forecasting
Markets remain probabilistic.
The objective is improved judgment — not certainty.
How to Request Analysis
1️⃣ Add units to your Wavetimes account
2️⃣ Email me with your instrument and question
3️⃣ Work begins once units are available
Starting work after units are in place avoids administrative friction and ensures timely response.
Who This Service Best Serves
This work tends to resonate with:
- Investors evaluating allocation decisions
- Traders seeking structural context
- Elliott Wave students wanting applied insight
- Professionals seeking independent perspective
It is less suited to those seeking rapid trade prompts or continuous interaction.
Closing Perspective
Consulting forms one part of my broader professional engagement alongside writing, teaching, and course development. For that reason, I deliberately limit request volume to ensure each analysis receives appropriate attention.
If you believe an independent structural perspective could assist your decision process, I would be glad to hear from you.
