Marc Chaikin founded Chaikin Analytics LLC after 40 years on Wall Street as a trader, stockbroker, analyst, and head of the options department for a major brokerage firm, to deliver proven stock analytics to investors and traders, based on the Chaikin Power Gauge, a 20-factor alpha model proven effective at identifying a stock’s potential. Chaikin pioneered the first real-time analytics workstation for portfolio managers and stock traders, as well as computerized stock selection algorithms and technical indicators that have become industry standards (such as Chaikin Money Flow).

Chaikin Investments has partnered with NASDAQ and IndexIQ to introduce the Chaikin Power Gauge stock grading system to the ETF industry for the first time. On April 30, 2018, Marc and the Chaikin Analytics team rang the NASDAQ Opening Bell to commemorate the first anniversary of this extremely successful launch. Since their launch in April 2014, the Nasdaq Chaikin Indexes, driven by the Power Gauge Rating, have beaten their benchmarks.

Marc Chaikin’s prediction for the 2022most recent forecast has received 1.5 million views. A momentous occurrence in 2022, according to Chaikin, who spent 50 years on Wall Street, will produce a huge shift in the wealth disparity. “Anyone who owns stocks will be affected,” argues Chaikin, who correctly forecast the 2020 Crash. “Most people will never see it coming for the simple and heartbreaking reason that no one wants this to happen.” Nobody.” Chaikin believes that a new type of technology will disrupt everything. “All of this is a direct effect of 2020,” he continues. Chaikin, a frequent guest on CNBC’s Mad Money, has never shied away from making unpopular forecasts.

Marc Chaikin’sChaikin Money Flow (CMF)

It is a volume-weighted average of accumulation and distribution over a certain period. The typical CMF duration is 21 days. The Chaikin Money Flow theory states that the closer the closing price is to the high, the greater accumulation has occurred. In contrast, the closer the closing price is to the low, the more dispersion has occurred. The Chaikin Money Flow will be positive if the price action repeatedly closes above the bar’s midway on growing volume. In contrast, if the price action continually closes below the midpoint of the bar on growing volume, the Chaikin Money Flow will be negative.

How does this indication work?

• A CMF number above the zero line indicates market strength, while a value below the zero line indicates market weakness.
• Wait for the CMF to validate the price action’s breakout direction via trend lines or support and resistance lines. For example, if price breaks above resistance, wait for the CMF to become positive to confirm the breakout direction.
• When price action produces a higher high into overbought zones, the CMF diverges with a lower high and begins to decline; this is a CMF sell signal.
