MarketMap 2025 Annual Scenario Planner
More bottom line, less explanation.
Prepare for 2025 with the MarketMap-2025 Annual Scenario Planner, scheduled for publication from mid- December to mid-February (ten issues).
Preordering begins today. Contrary Thinker's preliminary outlook suggests that 2025 will be significant for the long-term economic market cycle, converging with ongoing political and geopolitical developments. All of that should be self-evident today, but it is now a matter of timing market changes, which is what the Market Map™ fractal formula aims to achieve
The standalone Annual Scenario Planner provides an unbiased basic investing/trading planner for the coming year across popular markets. Although it may resemble the familiar ten-year decennial (ten-year overlay) chart produced by several market forecasters, the similarity ends there. The Annual Scenario Planner offers a chart used in a similar manner, depicting periods of trading range, of trending periods, and expected changes from these conditions called COTs (change of trends).
Inserted below there are examples of the Annual charts side by side with a chart for the year thus far. To give you a sense of the Annual Planners’ real time use.
Beyond the Traditional
If your interest expands beyond traditional investing and trading, the video embedded below explains how the map’s formula can be utilized for volatility, risk management, and risk trading.
Pre-publication discount: save $100 before mid-December, when the price reverts to $249.00. If there was only one publication to provide a walkaway framework for the year with dates for changes easily highlighted in one’s calendar this is what you are looking for.
Though 2024 is not yet concluded, several predictions from our 2024 scenario planner have already been manifested. For example, Issue #4 January 11, 2024, noted on the market template shown here that market in the second half of 2024 would experience negative influences starting July 22 to August 19. Dissipating into September 26 only for the Dow to come back two months later advancing into 2025.
The fractal seen above is 1941 based on our formula and gives a clue what may be ahead for 2025, but Market Map™ annual planner will be more precise with more data available today.
The high-tech sector traced out a similar second half as suggested above and seen here on the QQQ from mid-year into late summer followed by a recovery.
The annual scenario planner for QQQ seen here fits with the 1941 fractal and runs parallel with the trends and change dates thus far this year. With that in mind and only using the Annual Planner as one’s guide the end of the uptrend from the 8/5/24 low is near a top change of trends being expected November 19, 2024.
When we apply the mapping fractal to the markets that are prim influences of others, like inflation and consumer sentiment there also key trend directions can be forecast along with their approximate dates for trend change.
Inflation Map for 2024
For example, Market Map™ Issue #6 Feb 9, 2024 even from as far back as nine months, the Annual Scenario Planner saw the early inflationary issues fading but coming back in the last quarter of 2024. Which is the case, based on the FRB jawboning into the .50 rate cut on 9/18/25.
Comparing the above scenario for inflation to both real outcome on 20-year rates on the left and the 2024 scenario planner for rates on the right, it’s easy to see how supportive the scenario map can be.
Contrary Thinker has four market analysis services and the Annual Planner is one that can be used standalone by anyone no matter their experience level.
In 2025 there was gigantic leap forward by the creative from Contrary Thinker leveraging thirty years of expertise with Contrary Thinker.
The lead video is about ten minutes and tells you how we have evolved the annual mapping to include VX and why.
With the lead time the new VIX map shows, how much could you have made long the VX futures, the 2x Long ETF UVIX or the ITM calls on UVIX?
All of this is available for a one-time fee of $149.00 before the first issue in December. Afterward, the Scenario Planner will be priced at $249.00. Secure your copy today.
