Foundation for the Study of Cycles
Live in '25 Conference
The New Case for Cycles
June 12-14, 2025
Highlights
June 12–14, 2025
SUNY Global Center, New York City
In an intimate, highly interactive setting, market legends and pioneering researchers Larry Williams, Peter Eliades, Sherman McClellan, Akhil Patel, Peter Borish, and more shared decades of insights.
FSC all-stars including Dr. Richard Smith, Lars von Thienen, Jake Bernstein, Ray Tomes, Andrew Pancholi, Bill Sarubbi, and Ron William passed the torch to a new generation of cycles explorers, continuing the grand tradition of mentorship and discovery.
Attendees didn’t just listen, they participated, connected, and laid the foundation for a stronger, more unified community. The conference also previewed groundbreaking new tools designed to make cycles analysis more powerful and accessible to all, regardless of background or experience.
From the main stage to the dinner table, Live in ’25 wasn’t just a conference. It was a reunion, a launchpad, and a signal: The next great chapter in cycles science is underway.
Here are some special moments from the event:

So many unforgettable moments at the Live in ’25 conference in NYC last week – but Peter Borish dropping in to share his wisdom with a new generation of cycles explorers was truly a highlight. We’re so grateful for his presence and insight!

Our Live in '25 Presentations
Live in '25 showcased three days of dynamic discussions, expert insights, and abundant networking opportunities.
Peter Eliades
Keynote Speaker
Peter Eliades began his career as a stockbroker appearing as a market analyst on FNN. From 1975 to 2011 his Stock Market Cycles newsletter predicted amazingly accurate stock market highs and lows. Eliades has regularly appeared on Business World, CNBC, Wall Street Week, and Nightly Business Report and has been featured in Barron’s, The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, and Futures Magazine.
Larry Williams
Keynote Speaker
Larry Williams’ career began in 1962 with the stock market crash of that year. Since then, he has authored some of the best-selling futures trading books of all time, including How I Made $1,000,000 Trading Commodities Last Year and has received every major lifetime award in the industry. He is perhaps best known for winning the Robbins World Cup Trading Championship trading $10,000 to $1,100,000, and most every year his students have also won the championship.

Cycles in Science and Nature
The conference kicked off with FSC Science Director Ray Tomes and other distinguished experts exploring Dewey’s legacy and groundbreaking research.
Highlights included:

Our Mission
80 Years of Cycles Research
The FSC was founded on the principle of "understanding cycles and how they can be used for the betterment of all mankind." Our Live in '25 Conference is the realization of that mission. This June, we celebrate three days of true peer-to-peer exchange of knowledge, lively discussion and cycles fellowship.
