STA Monthly Meeting June 2009
Thierry will be explaining how he successfully forecasts the FTSE 100 with e-yield indicators. These are the Bullish Trend Indicator (BTI), 13-day BTI and Top 20 Differential. His approach is based on combining Elliott wave theory with his own indicators. He will explain how these indicators work and how they can be integrated in a simple strategy to produce an accurate forecast. Elliott wave theory on its own can be confusing and these indicators have been developed to confirm the position of the Elliott wave count. Thierry will demonstrate how the BTI can help identify Elliott wave patterns and how to use the 13-day BTI and Top 20 Differential as timing indicators. He will show how these two indicators have a good track record at finding market highs and lows.
Thierry Laduguie’s unique style of analysis is based on Elliott Wave and sentiment analysis. He has developed his own sentiment indicator (ESI) which is used to forecast the short term direction of the FTSE 100 and S&P 500. Thierry is a member of the Society of Technical Analysts and holds the Investment Management Certificate.

Behavioural Finance and Trading Psychology
Why do traders make irrational decisions — even when they know better?
In this eye-opening online Masterclass, Kim Cramer Larsson, a seasoned Technical Analyst with over 25 years of experience, explores the powerful psychological forces that influence financial decision-making. Drawing on his deep expertise in both market behaviour and trading psychology, Kim offers a compelling look at why traders and investors often fall into the same traps — and how to avoid them.
The talk begins with a look at the trader sentiment roadmap, illustrating how collective emotion shapes market direction. From there, Kim delves into the fundamentals of trading psychology, exploring how emotions, the illusion of control, and our natural aversion to loss impact trading performance. He’ll also examine the subtle but critical role that positioning plays in shaping both perception and risk.
One of the central themes is “Pain & Gain – and an Inconvenient Truth,” where Kim explains why discipline in trading is so difficult to master, even for experienced professionals. The session wraps up with a thought-provoking look at the psychology behind market bubbles — from euphoria to collapse — and what these cycles reveal about investor behaviour
