Händler und erfahrene Privatanleger kommen immer mehr zu dem Schluß, daß die traditionellen Prognosemethoden der fundamentalen oder technischen Analyse offenbar zu widersprüchlichen Ergebnissen kommen. Bei den fundamentalen Analysten geht der Markt eher schwach, bei den technischen Analysten geht er fester. Die Folge von solch gegensätzlichen Signalen ist, daß viele Händler und Anleger sich auf eine Kombination von wissenschaftlicher Theorie und Anlagepsychologie stützen. Bill Williams zeigt hier neue Perspektiven der Marktbeobachtung auf. Er kombiniert Elemente traditioneller technischer Chartmethoden mit Chaostheorie und Psychologie. Das Ergebnis ist ein komplexes, fünfdimensionales Handelsprogramm mit ausführlichen Erläuterungen und Beispielen zu Bereichen wie Fraktalanalyse, Oszillatoren und psychologischen Aspekten. (10/98)

Technological innovations are key causal agents of surprise and disruption. In the recent past, the United States military has encountered unexpected challenges in the battlefield due in part to the adversary's incorporation of technologies not traditionally associated with weaponry. Recognizing the need to broaden the scope of current technology forecasting efforts, the Office of the Director, Defense Research and Engineering (DDR&E) and the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) tasked the Committee for Forecasting Future Disruptive Technologies with providing guidance and insight on how to build a persistent forecasting system to predict, analyze, and reduce the impact of the most dramatically disruptive technologies. The first of two reports, this volume analyzes existing forecasting methods and processes. It then outlines the necessary characteristics of a comprehensive forecasting system that integrates data from diverse sources to identify potentially game-changing technological innovations and facilitates informed decision making by policymakers. The committee's goal was to help the reader understand current forecasting methodologies, the nature of disruptive technologies and the characteristics of a persistent forecasting system for disruptive technology. Persistent Forecasting of Disruptive Technologies is a useful text for the Department of Defense, Homeland Security, the Intelligence community and other defense agencies across the nation.
