Pricing

Two publications. Two subscriptions. Neither requires the other.


MarketMap™

$129 monthly. $349 quarterly. $1,290 yearly.

Most services publish on a schedule. Markets do not move on a schedule.

MarketMap™ arrives when the structure changes, three or four times a week, sometimes more when conditions warrant it. You are not reading a Monday recap written to fill a slot. You are reading a live read of where the market is in its cycle, issued when that read shifts.

Every issue is built on the same framework: Market Structure = Price + Volatility + Timing Cycle.

Price alone is Elliott Wave. Sentiment alone is every contrarian letter on the internet. Neither one tells you when. MarketMap™ reads all three together, which is why members are positioned before the move rather than explaining it afterward.

What lands in your inbox:

  • The current cycle position across the seven markets: stocks, bonds, metals, energy, currencies, commodities, crypto. Where price sits inside the structure, not where it closed.
  • Our volatility model predicts market dynamics, the character of the move, not its destination. Our model (TEM) forecasts whether the market is about to expand or contract, trend or range, panic or drift, or go dead in the water, so you know how much force is behind price before you commit to a price level.
  • The timing window. The calendar dates that matter, based on empirical studies of cycles, lunar events, tidal cycles, as well as astrology.
  • The trade posture. What members are positioned for, and the level that invalidates it.
  • Chart work with the annotations, not a wall of text describing a chart you cannot see.

Contrary Thinker has published since 1989. The forecast record is not built on being loud. It is built on being early and being specific about when.

A MarketMap™ subscription includes access to the private Volatility Reports group on LinkedIn and all published updates.

Stop being the person who reacts. Become the person who already knew.

Strategy and Tactics

$129 monthly. $349 quarterly. $1,290 yearly.

Market-timed entry and exit advice across six major markets, in real time, bullish and bearish, as the sequence unfolds. Not scenarios. Not hypotheticals.

Every tactical alert carries the level to watch, the window to engage, the stop that tells you when you are wrong, and a push alert the moment the setup is live.

Subscribers receive email notification when a new publication, cycle update, or tactical alert is posted. We do not flood the channel. The cadence is driven by the cycle, not by a content calendar.

A standalone product. Available to anyone.

Prepay for the 2027 Annual Scenario Planner and receive every 2026 issue plus all published updates.
