About Me
Kevin Klombies is a prolific writer and market analyst. After graduating in 1980 from the
While at Wood Gundy, he began to create the intermarket work that would later become the IMRA newsletter. He recalls starting with a DOS version of Metastock that he used to print out charts, drawing lines on them with a pen and ruler and taping them together upside down (at times).
The first market review that he put together was in 1988 and was based on annual percentage changes in U.S. M1 versus the equity markets. It ended up going from desk to desk right to the Bank of Canada, which said there was, in fact, no relationship between money supply growth and the equity markets (“which probably explains why I have so little respect for central banks,” he says).
Klombies says his broker career was uninspiring, mainly because he spent way too many hours running charts and too little time prospecting for business. He found that what he liked best was analyzing the markets and what he liked least was selling, marketing, and client service. So he eventually left the business and continued to work on the analysis while doing some trading and consulting.

Just saw your watch list. What are your recommendations on each of those? BTW: You must be Ron's son?
Hey Kevin!!! I just signed up to the community and it is looking great. I have been studying FOREX for a couple of years now and I love it with heart and soul. I am in plans of soon obtaining my license 3 exam and also taking classes on Finance/FOREX/Stock Market. I am studying the book FOREX REVOLUTION by PETER ROSENTREICH and I consider the book amazing. I am now in one of the last chapters that speaks on chart analysis... Do you have any advice such as what books to read, web pages to visit (such as stockcharts.com) or anything related? Thanks a lot Kevin for your advice!!! much success, take care!!!
