50+ Years of Nailing Market Shifts Leads to One Big Warning VIEW IN BROWSER By Michael Salvatore, Editor, TradeSmith Daily Stocks feel, in some ways, like they’re on the edge of a cliff. And this past week, I had the pleasure of talking with someone whose level of experience is rare and invaluable to have at a time like that. His name is Marc Chaikin, and he’s been analyzing and trading markets for more than 50 years. His career stretches all the way back to Wall Street in 1966, where he cut a path that few traders dared to tread into the world of technical analysis. He went on to manage money for legends like Paul Tudor Jones, George Soros, and Steve Cohen… and built technical indicators that have shaped for decades how professional traders analyze the markets. But what struck me most in our conversation wasn’t Marc’s résumé – it was his perspective. Marc has watched markets evolve from chalkboards and ticker tape… to phone orders… to the internet… and today’s hyper-fast, algorithm-driven environment. | Recommended Link | | | | Futurist Eric Fry has already led his readers to big gains on Amazon stock. But now he says, it’s time to kick that name to the curb and replace it with a company that’s more like “buying Amazon in 2005.” In his presentation, Eric shows why this company could become 700% more profitable in under 2 years. He reveals the name, ticker and full analysis – completely free right here. |  | |
Yet through all that change, he believes one thing is exactly the same today as it was in 1966: Most investors still don’t know when the market is quietly shifting beneath their feet. And Marc’s data and analytics tell him that a shift is coming. In his words — “The character of the market could change in a way most people aren’t prepared for.” We’ve partnered with Marc on a special project to give investors like you an early-warning signal BEFORE it happens. He and our CEO Keith Kaplan will reveal more about this Tuesday, 10 am ET, in the Tipping Point 2026 summit. But in the meantime, for this exclusive interview, I asked Marc about the lessons of his days on Wall Street… the origins of the indicators he built… how he called the major twists of the last few years… and why he’s joining forces with TradeSmith right now. It’s one of the most fascinating interviews I’ve done all year. Click the thumbnail below to check it out. 
If you found Marc’s perspective helpful, you cannot miss what he’s sharing in the Tipping Point 2026 event with our CEO, Keith Kaplan.
