Hurst's The Profit Magic of Stock Transaction Timing drew attention to cycles and suggested ways to analyze and sum them, many, many analysts (mostly engineers) have taken a swing at making them work on market data—usually with mixed results. One of the few successes to result was maximum entropy spectral analysis, better known as MESA, which Anthony Warren and Jack Hutson introduced to readers of STOCKS & COMMODITIES in 1984. Engineer John Ehlers was exposed to the work of John Parker Burg in seismic analysis at a Toronto conference in 1978 and based the development of his product MESA on Burg's graduate thesis, further explicating the process of cycle analysis in articles in STOCKS & COMMODITIES in the late 1980s. |
