Summary: THE 80% PRICE CURVE PLAN is a practical forecasting method for trading the minor price swings of the stock market. It’s purpose is to serve the trader as an indicator of when to buy and when to sell; to time the tops and bottoms of the many rallies and reactions that occur so often during the progress of a major bull or bear market, and to determine when the minor technical position of the stock market is strong or week.

The principle of the 80% Curve is logically based on a simple formula for measuring the extension of the price movement of the Dow Jones Industrial Average. The purpose is to determine the ratio between supply and demand of stocks at any given time, it being most likely that after completing a move in one direction, the market will retrace a part if not all of its previous move.

Tests have shown that if the signals indicated by the 80% Curve are followed, minor market movements can be traded profitably when the market is in a trading area.

The method is self-contained and complete, and the trader has the choice of trading either the long or the short side of the market, or both, according to personal preference. The 80% Price Curve Plan can be used in connection with the Dow Theory for trading a large or primary market movements. A few suggestions are offered in the text, and no doubt new ways of synchronizing the 80% Curve with the Dow Theory, and other trading methods, will suggest themselves to the student.

Summary: How to Make New Stock Market Profits from Stock Market Profits with the Price Curve Plan and Countertrend Analysis. THE PRICE-CURVE PLAN OF STOCK MARKET TRADING detects strength and weakness in the stock market, near highs and lows of intermediate and major trends. COUNTERTREND ANALYSIS gives selling signals in individual stocks, following periods of strength, buy signals are given subsequent to intermediate declines. Countertrend Signals are obtained directly from price-volume relationship of selected stocks – independent of general market conditions. THE FIRST PART OF THE TEXT describes factors for determining strength and weakness of price-volume relationship in the Dow-Jones Industrial and other Stock Group Averages. It shows how to synchronize the various trading tools, for obtaining buy and sell indications; how to detect intermediate and major signals; and when to buy and when to sell.  The trading tools are: 1. PRICE-CURVE, 2. AGGREGATE VOLUME CURVE, 3. CONTINUOUS VOLUME CURVE, 4. MAJOR TREND CURVE. THESE MARKET TOOLS are complied directly from daily or weekly price changes in the market, and from volume of trading. As far was we can tell, this 1951 edition was the last of his Price-Curve writings which seem to have started in 1940.
