Arch Crawford is the Editor of Crawford Perspectives (CrawfordPerspectives.com), and has been called "The Street's best known Astrologer" by Barron's.

Arch Crawford started watching the stock market when he was 13 and bought stock the following year. After studying math and physics at the University of North Carolina, he wrote up stock price changes in chalk at the Merrill Lynch office in Raleigh, NC. Transferring to New York later that year, Arch Crawford kept the weekly charts for Merrill's 45 industry specialists, and soon became the assistant to Technical Market Analyst Robert Farrell.

His interest in Astrological cycles was piqued by a front page article in The Wall Street Journal on April 16, 1963. Following extensive research into astrophysical phenomenon, astrology, and its correlation to market performance, Arch Crawford published the first issue of the Crawford Perspectives market timing newsletter in 1977. Arch Crawford also speaks at financial and astrological conferences around the world.

Crawford Perspectives is published on the first Monday of each month. It combines technical analysis and planetary cycles research in timing the stock markets, bonds, gold, and the US dollar. Also available at CrawfordPerspectives.com are Crawford Hotline Updates: three-minute, twice daily telephone briefings with specific buy, sell, and protective stop-loss points for the futures of the S&P 500, NASDAQ 100, gold, and 30-year bonds. A personal consulting service is also available, which includes telephone access to Arch Crawford.

Books related to market timing, technical analysis, and financial astrology are also available at CrawfordPerspectives.com.

There are quite a variety of investment newsletter services available to investors today, which achieve a decent track record. In reality, however, many newsletters have not translated well for most investors that subscribe to them. The reason? Money management. Without the proper position sizing using the right money management tool, you are only dealing with half the formula for success.

Let's face it: if there was one consistently successful investment newsletter, then the word would spread rapidly, and that one investment newsletter would have more customers than the population of China. The reality is that there has never been such a success. Why? Because in the final analysis, 8 out of 10 investors fail due to one simple reason: position sizing.

The majority of investors who subscribe to investment newsletters think that the process is as simple as "Just give me your recommendations and let me become as successful as you are". Unfortunately, as money managers know, entry points account for very little in the overall success of a portfolio. Find out why!
