But retrospective explanations don't keep you ahead of the trend. To win in forex, you need <em>forward-looking analysis<\/em>, and you need it before the market moves.<\/p>\n<p>On December 26, the editor EWI's forex-focused <em>Currency Specialty Service<\/em>, Jim Martens, posted this comment <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FX_ElliottWave\" target=\"_blank\">on his Twitter feed:<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FX_ElliottWave\" target=\"_blank\">EWI Forex Insider: @FX_ElliottWave<\/a><br \/>\nNow that we got the EUR rise we expected, the double zigzag rise from 1.3158 to 1.3256 leaves <strong>EUR\/USD vulnerable to a decline.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Then, on the morning of December 27, Jim updated his <em>Currency Specialty Service<\/em> subscribers via this intraday forecast (excerpt):<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"\/\/www.elliottwave.com\/images\/freeupdates\/image\/fofo%2012-127-2012one.GIF\" alt=\"\" width=\"456\" height=\"447\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>EURUSD (Intraday)<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Posted On: Dec 27<\/strong> 2012 10:01AM ET \/ Dec 27 2012 3:01PM GMT<br \/>\n<strong>Last Price: 1.3269<\/strong><br \/>\nThe overlapping rise and possible double top near 1.3309 could lead to a larger correction.
