About Ian Cooper

Ian Cooper, an InvestorsAlley.com contributor, has been analyzing stocks and options for advisories since 1999. Over the last 21 years, Ian Cooper has relied on a blend of technical, fundamental and news analysis with stocks, options, and ETFs. He was one of the few that called the bottom and top of housing, the top of subprime and Alt-A, the death of Lehman Brothers and Bear Stearns, the collapse of the U.K. economy and the Dow’s collapse to 6,500, including its recovery. He even called for gold to rally well above $1,000 when it traded under $850. He’s shown thousands of investors just how to exploit “market extremes” for fast, short-term gains with seven indicators that have led to successful calls on the biggest spikes and dips in the stock markets.
