John Murphy (economist)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

John Murphy is a leader in the field of technical analysis; that of forecasting financial markets through observations on price charts. He has done more to bring the subject to a wider audience than any other analyst, through his books and daily web based commentary. His book ‘Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets’ has become the standard text book for the subject.

Two things have set Murphy apart from other analysts. Firstly, the clear and concise writing style is a rarity in a field where often, the standard of writing is appalling. Secondly, his work on Intermarket Analysis was the first to set out in a formal way the effects that various markets have upon each other.
