Before the internet, before email, and long before social media, professional foreign exchange dealers at the world's leading banks communicated in real time through the Reuters Electronic Dealing System — a closed, secure network accessible only to licensed inter-bank dealers at major financial institutions.
Over more than three decades, Ramki Ramakrishnan built a remarkable following within this exclusive community. Dealers and trading desk heads from institutions such as Credit Suisse, Citibank, Commerzbank, Midland Bank, Lloyds Bank, Rabobank, Societe Generale, Bank of America, ING and many others reached out to him directly through this system — seeking his Elliott Wave analysis, acknowledging the accuracy of his calls, and expressing their appreciation.
The documents reproduced below are authentic records of these interactions. They represent some of the most compelling evidence of Ramki's standing as a trusted analyst among the world's top foreign exchange professionals during the golden era of inter-bank dealing.
