For Common Specific Answers & Questions see below
We’ve had a number of people requesting clarification of the recent Elliottician is Moving On Press Release about Elliottician’s future focus on industry professionals and fund managers. We’ve also had a number of people reading only a portion of the announcement before jumping to incorrect conclusions. Here are clarifications and answers to the most common questions received to date. Please read in its entirety. Reference to Recent Announcements: Elliottician is Moving On : Press Release - 21st July, 2008 Elliottician Founding Membership details: RET Mastery Personal Coaching Program details: About Software Trading Systems:Trading systems that have very little or no value are typically sold to the retail trading public. In contrast, trading systems that produce consistent profits are typically sold for appropriately high prices to fund managers and other institutional trading professions.RET has now proven itself to be an institutional grade marketing forecasting and trading system. Delivering on Promises – Beyond the Call of Duty:Over the years, RET owners have received not only free bug fixes and patches, but also additional features, increased accuracy, trading system additions and other multiple improvements – at absolutely no charge.Many RET clients purchased years ago, even before RET included a trading system and have received this additional new technology at no cost. In addition, Elliottician has never charged for technical or other support. All support has always been available to all clients absolutely free of charge. Because existing clients were promised free support, Elliottician will deliver on that promise - even though it is costing Elliottician, in most cases, more to provide this ongoing service than the profit on the original software sale. All existing RET clients will continue to receive free support indefinitely into the future. RET will be maintained and supported, kept operational in the changing MS Windows environment and with changing data suppliers. These changes will continue to be available at no cost to all RET clients - by way of free RET software upgrades and the Elliottician software support hotline. Obtaining Future PowerPacks:Although RET is being maintained, supported and kept operational, it is no longer being developed with any new features. The only future improvements for RET will be the ongoing development of future PowerPack databases – which help RET adapt its pattern recognition to new and different markets.These new PowerPacks will be available to all RET clients – as and when they are released, from time to time, at the same prices as current PowerPacks. Introducing RET Professional – Heavy Duty High Performance Trading Software for Industry Professionals and Fund Managers:Elliottician’s research department continues to develop it's technology at an ever increasing rate. The recipient of all new trading technology from September 2008 is the new Elliottician software product, named RET Professional.RET Professional is specifically designed for industry professionals and fund managers – available at a minimum investment of $100,000 per year, per seat, including RET Mastery personalized coaching. Of course, RET Professional is also available to serious private traders who are able and willing to invest $100,000 per year in this technology. So You Are Not Left Behind:Giving private trader clients access to professional trading software at private trader prices is unheard of in the industry. Even so, we at Elliottician want to reward our loyal Founding Membership clients with access to RET Professional indefinitely into the future – at an affordable investment for a private trader.Obviously there needs to be a cut-off date for joining Founding Membership – which is set at the end of August 2008. The details of Founding Membership can be found at: Elliottician Founding Membership If You Can’t Afford Founding Membership:Here’s the truth:If you are truly unable to raise just $2995 for an entire year’s investment into your financial future - to have full access to industrial grade trading software - you probably should not be trading the markets at all. However, if you are committed and capable of much more, but simply down on your financial luck at the present time, talk with Elliottician’s sales staff about your situation and explore possibilities, such as a part payment plan. There is always a way forward for those with sufficient motivation, tenacity and drive. RET Mastery with RET ProfessionalRET Mastery students are regarded as Founding Members until graduation from RET Mastery. During that time, RET Mastery students gain access to everything our Foundation Members have. Only on graduation will it be necessary to decide whether or not to become a Founding Member.Supporting and Rewarding Loyal Elliott Research Project (ERP2) Participants:Over the years, many loyal Elliottician clients have donated an extraordinary amount of computer time to the Elliott Research Project (ERP2) to help in the ongoing research of Refined Elliott Wave. This research has been used, in part, to create the RET PowerPack databases that help RET adapt to different market conditions. To express our sincere gratitude to all the participants who donated 1,000 hours or more of computing time to this project, we are rewarding those clients with significant discounts for PowerPacks – now and into the future. If you have donated more than 1,000 hours of computer time to ERP2, speak with our sales staff next time you wish to purchase a PowerPack, and see what special deal they can do for you. Founding Membership in a Nutshell:There are two general classes of traders:Class A) Those who invest the most, rarely need support, are a pleasure to deal with, take responsibility for their own decisions, understand the value of the technology they have purchased and generally learn how to trade profitably in very little time. Class B) Those who invest the least, tend to complain a lot, quick to flame, find it difficult to follow instructions, rarely take responsibility for anything, never learn how to trade profitably and cost us the most to support. The most common factor separating these two classes of traders is their level of investment – in time, money and tenacity. Our Founding Membership program filters out Class B traders. Only those willing to invest into their future are joining; which is bringing together our most appreciative and capable clients – those who are a pleasure to serve; those who achieve the most; those who will enjoy and benefit from each other’s company; and those who will make the most of industrial grade trading technology. It is interesting to note that RET Mastery is full of Class A traders.

The Purpose of Elliottician is to continue refining the Elliott Wave Principle and to teach its successful application in forecasting the markets.
Risk Disclaimer: All trading involves risk. Leveraged trading has large potential rewards, but also large potential risk. Be aware and accept this risk before trading. Never trade with money you cannot afford to lose. All forecasting is based on statistics derived from past performance and past performance of any trading methodology is no guarantee of future results. No "safe" trading system has ever been devised and no one can guarantee profits or freedom from loss. No representation is being made that any account will achieve profits or losses similar to those discussed. There is no guarantee that, even with the best advice available, you will become a successful trader because not everyone has what it takes to be a successful trader. The trading strategies discussed may be unsuitable for you depending upon your specific investment objectives and financial position. You must make your own investment decisions in light of your own investment objectives, risk profile, and circumstances. Use independent advisors as you believe necessary. Therefore, the information provided herein is not intended to be specific advice as to whether you should engage in a particular trading strategy or buy, sell, or hold any financial product. Margin requirements, tax considerations, commissions, and other transaction costs may significantly affect the economic consequences of the trading strategies or transactions discussed and you should review such requirements with your own legal, tax and financial advisors. Before engaging in such trading activities, you should understand the nature and extent of your rights and obligations and be aware of the risks involved. All testimonials are unsolicited and are potentially non-representative of all clients. Your trading results may vary from those case studies detailed on the Elliottician website. Elliottician is not a broker or licensed investment advisor and therefore is not licensed to tailor general investment advice for individual traders. Your actions and the results of your actions in regard to anything you receive from Elliottician are entirely your own responsibility. Elliottician cannot and will not assume liability for any losses that may be incurred by the use of any information received from Elliottician. Any such liability is hereby expressly disclaimed.
Hypothetical Disclaimer: All results are considered to be Hypothetical unless otherwise specified: Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under or over compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. Furthermore, only risk capital should be used for leveraged trading due to the high risk of loss involved. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses (and incur account drawdowns) or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading loses are important issues which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program, method or system, which cannot be completely taken into consideration with hypothetical performance results and will affect trading results and your P/L.
