    I think wave 5 should fade out around 162.50 long before the drop to 160... at least thats what I am watching to enter long.. have I any chance here?

    So, I am going to wait and see. This is forex, anything can happen.
    But I think your GBPUSD chart is spot on!
    Thanks.

    I dont know how to add a chart here but anyway its only a guess since wave 5 is in most cases an exhaustion wave and shouldnt be strong enough to touch 160

    we dont need to trade every day, do we

    didnt find anything really sure today, however i am watching this one for a potential reversal.. probably tommorow.

    as long as this doesnt drift lower in a fifth wave it is NOT a diagonal and this chart is RUBBISH, but if it does, i will be quite sure the downmove (possibly the whole move from 1,70) has completed.

    in fact, that fits quite well with this eye hitting 5 wave advance in euro/dollar.

    Looks like a wedge, shaped like a wedge, but doesn't count as a wedge.
    An ending diagonal is 3:3:3:3:3 structure.

    Edit: Q's wedge looks like a wedge though...

    Thanks for the chart qsx. Yeah, I agree too...there are times when I don't trade either.

    No sense in "trading to trade" without a sense of direction. I agree.

    Thanks for the chart.

    Forget about all that wedge business
    there is a 38% retracement there ,,,,,,,,,,,,

    Doesn't that count for something ?

    Yeah, I'd agree with marketwavez2 on this...be sure to post a chart since this Elliott Wave forum requires visuals to see counts. It will help everyone as you talk about your chart. Thanks.

    In conclusion....... I would say our chart count is very similar. I included this chart showing what I thought was wave 4, but that 'spike' (noted on the chart) barely penatrated the top of Wave 1. Hence I added the note about ' altered count due to spikes'. The count in Wave 5 also seemed 'iffy' !
    * I was hoping this Forum was about 'Learning' by helping others, especially in this thread "Elliott Waves'. I guess the forum can be anything posters/moderator want it to be. I don't believe it should be a forum to post charts, so others are encouraged to TRADE off of. Besides, most traders don't trade all day.
    Just MHO...............
    JK.
    Your count is, actually, also correct...
    Why ?
    Because the wave 4 can _enter_ the territory of the wave 1.
    What wave 4 can't do is to _finish_ in the wave 1 territory.
    So, when the wave 4 happens to be a triangle (as in your count) then it's possible for the first leg of this triangle to enter shortly into the wave 1.

    Edit: The problem with your count, however, is in the wave "3?"...

    Ravno ...... i see that Jknpa chart is a 425 min bar chart

    is it possible to repost the same chart with 240 min ?


    JKnpa can you please repost a 240 min bar chart ?

    i think doing this can help to see the sub waves a little bit better

    as far as i understand, 425 minutes was the length, or the total period.
    the chart itself is 5 minutes chart.
