Martin J. Pring entered the financial markets in 1969, and has since become a world-renowned leader in technical analysis as applied to the global investment community. In 1981 he founded Pring Research, and began providing research for financial institutions and individual investors around the world. Since 1984, Martin has published the Intermarket Review, a monthly market review offering a long-term synopsis of the world’s major financial markets. Martin pioneered the introduction of videos as an educational tool for technical analysis in 1987.

He writes a monthly educational column on the basics of technical analysis for Stocks and Commodities Magazine, and his articles have been featured in Barron’s, which describes him as a “technician’s technician.” Martin has been quoted in the Wall St. Journal, International Herald Tribune, the New York Post and Los Angeles Times newspapers, as well as the National Review. He is widely acclaimed by his peers and has received the Canadian Society of Technical Analysts‘s Jack Frost Memorial Award as well as the CMT Association’s coveted Annual Award. He has also been made an honorary member of the Swiss Association of Market Technicians.

For many years, Martin’s primary interest has been educating students of technical analysis in the basic and finer points of this discipline. He enjoys mentoring students of technical analysis from the college level to professionals already in the field, sharing the wealth of knowledge he has gained through his own experience and research. In this regard, he has spoken on technical analysis to the Darden Business School, Golden Gate University, and University of Richmond, VA.
