Sometime in late 2007 I ran into a guy who wrote weekly articles about the stock market, using what he called a Super Chart. He’s what’s known on Wall Street as a Chartist, a long established school of thought. He was mentored for several years by an iconic chartist whose name escapes me.
Anyway, his name is Max Whitmore, and he’s the real deal — and a half. He’s the most unassuming guy you’d ever wanna talk to. Yet his record is second to none.
The guy hasn’t missed a major market move since 1965. Those who listened to him before this most reason meltdown still have most of their capital. He’s guest posted at BawldGuy Talking the last two Mondays, and will continue to do so until he and I, along with Tom Vanderwell launch our new site.
Here are the links to his first post, and the one this past Monday.
I began talkin’ about Max a couple years ago. Then the national site who carried his posts in subscription form, dropped him. Their loss. Then something began to happen. Whitmore followers all over the country began to email me from my blog asking if I knew where to find him. They’d subscribed to his stuff, and missed him sorely. This went on for a year at least.
Meanwhile Max and I had become email buddies. I let this be known on the blog and the queries intensified. His followers are the poster kids for loyal. Anywho, go take a look. As I said before, Max Whitmore is the real deal.

Jeff – Interesting information from Max. I actually studied technical analysis for several years and traded my own portfolio for some time using various strategies. I have two questions when I come across any of the multitude of stock market experts. Are they rich? If so, is is it from trading their strategy or selling their newsletters or books? Theory and chart reading are one thing, but implementing the strategies and overcoming your own psychology is another.

John — Max has always, and in semi-retirement still is incredibly successful following his own advice. Excellent point. He’s never made money spending others’ investment capital. In fact, 99% of the time he refuses to tout individual stocks. He simply says where the market seems to be going based upon his many charts.
He still trades for himself several hours daily — with results you and I would kill for. 🙂

Jeff – Cool! I’m eager to read more from Max, and I like his name. I have four daughters and a son named Max!

Jeff,
This Max guy sounds like he could be the real deal. Sounds like it’s a great asset to your new website! I don’t trust guys advice that don’t trade their own portofolio.
Thanks for the intel 🙂

John — Sounds like an omen to me.

Greg — His track record speaks for itself. Also, Max has no ax to grind either way. he interprets what the chart says, and let’s the chips fall. In the time I’ve known him he’s made several calls, all of which played out. When he’s unsure due to ambiguous chart ‘signal’ he says so in plain English.
