John is an Electrical Engineer. He received his BSEE and MSEE from the University of Missouri and did his doctoral work at George Washington University, specializing in Fields & Waves and Information Theory. He has been a private trader since 1976, starting with fundamental analysis. With his engineering training he quickly gravitated to technical analysis of the market. He originally questioned what was magic about a 14 day RSI, or any other period. He concluded there was no unique answer and that variable market conditions must be measured for effective trading.
He discovered Maximum Entropy Spectrum Analysis (MESA) while attending an Information Theory seminar in 1978. He has been a pioneer in introducing the MESA concept into technical analysis for the measurement of short term cycles. John has written the book "MESA, and Trading Market Cycles." He has written numerous articles for Futures and Stocks & Commodities magazines, and has spoken internationally on the subject of cycles in the market. He has now expanded the scope of his contributions to technical analysis through the application of scientific digital signal processing techniques.
