Countless people trade in precious and industrial metals markets. But very few of those people trade gold, silver, aluminum and copper with confidence. As a sector prone to double-digit intraday drops and advances retraced entirely only hours later, the fact is this: those who invest in metal markets are often about as relaxed as a bomb diffuser -- never knowing if cutting the green wire will lead to... Kablamo!

September was a cold, cruel month for those looking up to hard assets for safe-haven rewards. Last month, the Standard & Poor's GSCI gauge of 24 commodities plunged 12% for its biggest loss since the financial slump began in 2008. But, according to some experts, the worst is finally behind commodities. Now, you can see if they're right at absolutely no cost via EWI's Futures Junctures FreeWeek.

EWI's intensive Metals Specialty Service brings you unconventional perspectives on gold and silver

Most analysts and investors spend time debating about this or that "fundamental," which did (or maybe didn't) push the price of gold higher (or lower). But there is a more objective way to analyze precious metals: technical analysis. Editor of EWI's intensive Metals Specialty Service Mike Drakulich employs Elliott waves -- which rely on a defined, objective set of rules and guidelines...

Copper's Next Big Move: It's a Doozy
EWI's Metals Specialty Service reveals where and when copper prices could turn heads

One of the biggest challenges for traditional financial market analysts is how to know whether the current direction of prices -- on the intraday, daily or any other time frame -- is with the larger market trend or against it. "Fundamental" analysis is just not equipped to answer that. Elliott wave analysis, on the other hand, meets this challenge head-on: It provides you with a clear and simple context for price action.

Lately, the financial media has followed around the commodities sector like paparazzi pursues celebrities, tweeting: "OMG! Sugar soars to 30-year high," and "Grain Prices Busted: Corn caught with other crop supply!" In fact, paparazzis do have something in common with the mainstream financial observers: They also focus on the "external" factors. Elliott wave analysis, on the other hand, doesn't look at the externals.

The Charging Bull is the iconic 11-foot tall, 7,000 pound statue cast forever in a charging stance at the corner of Wall Street in New York City -- a powerful symbol of financial optimism and strength. And the fact that the sculpture is made primarily out of copper has never been more fitting.

copper is the metal to beat right now, as prices hover just under a new all-time high. And everyone from miners to scrap metal thieves, ETF founders and day-traders knock each other over to snag a spot on the red metal bandwagon. Frankly, there can be no better time -- when emotions and speculative energies are high -- for clear and objective analysis of copper's winning streak.

In the world of stock market trading, some are "park-bench investors": Those buy-and-holders who sit comfortably on their assets and wait patiently for the scene to change in their favor. And then, there are those who ride the trading "autobahn" -- on which the scene zips by in a blur so fast if you blink, you could miss a major opportunity. For this group, Elliott Wave International offers its exclusive Prime Stocks Flash service.

Fundamental analysis of market behavior suggests a linear, "straight-line," relationship between the news and markets: Factor “X” causes market “Y” to move in direction “Z.” In reality, however, there are more switchbacks along the mainstream financial road than an Alpine ski run.

On Friday, February 5, the words "hammered," "catastrophe" "punished" and "plunged" were used to describe the recent action in Copper prices. As I write, the red metal stands at its lowest level in three-months. This is the complete opposite of the "red hot" performance widely expected of copper for the start of 2010...
