Hey guys, I am an active commodities and index futures trader. I just stumbled on this thread one day and enjoy your posts and anaylsis.. .nice to see someone trading they way I do. I trade the spot a bit but have been difficulty dealing with the spread. Do you guys all trade 15min + timeframe? It seems that I am having to trade the futures vs the spot on lower time frames due the spread and commissions.

I am revising my price projection for a wave Gbp/Jpy I made this morning. I was expecting price to bring us back to 219 to 221 for a wave iv of III. (given that typical wave iv price projections are 38.2% to 50 % of wave iii). But heres the problem. The fear in the markets right now are anything but typical. I should have realized that this morning. I believe wave iv is over and ended at the 23.6% of wave III which was 217.11. Price is not going back to 220 and were in wave V of III. This may be an extended wave V who knows. But this is where I believe were at right now. We still need a new low to confirm that.

Could someone please help me verify if I have done correctly the 33333 wave structure for a symmetrical triangle on this 15min chart?

I also attach my 1hr wave count

Guess notyet except if wave 5 is going to be a diagonal triangle, which could happen, of course. The move lower yesterday was in three waves and never took out support, so looks like a flat is about to develop and today we could see the rally higher. The 4Hcharts, which I look at a lot are begging for some more time/distance higher I think...

hello,

this is my first post to this forum. EG888, one of the guidelines to elliot wave principle is that a triangle cannot form in wave 2. it can only form in wave 4 or wave b or wave x of a complex correction. what I think that is developing in the 1hr chart of the eurusd is a complex correction. coming down to the 15min chart, and applying the rule of alternation, wave a is sharp while wave c seems to be developing into a complex pattern. we can only confirm wave c has ended when we have a five wave sharp decline.

Gbpusd

Here is what I am looking at on the GBPUSD.

If price goes lower than 1.9568 which is the 161.8 Fib projection for wave C from wave A and B then we have a 5 wave impulse and this wave down is a wave 3 and not a wave C.

But if price stays abobe 1.9568, and breaks out of the proposed ending diagonal triangle , then the ABC correction may already be finished.
