Just wondering if anybody else had that problem....

Expanded Flat

I also have a question in with EWI and will let you know the answer.
Remember this?
Well, I have an answer from Vadim Pokhlebkin EWI Message Board Editor.

Question: How far can wave C (of supercycle degree)of an expanded flat retrace past the origin of wave A?

Answer: I'm afraid there is not definite number. The guideline in Lesson 4.2 Elliott Wave International - Login says "...wave C ends more substantially beyond the ending level of wave A..."

This can all be read at the EWI message boards. I have to mention the source as per their disclaimer, so herewith.....

The 1.382 level was according to Jeff Kennedy from EWI. The Dow has already exceeded that level. But accoding to the answer supplied, there is no saying as to where it will or can go.

Ez - you need to open a whole elliot wave thread (or any other thread ) in cooliris preview (not an image itself) in order to get good quality - I know it is crazy, but it works - what`s more - when you save to your computer a chart opened this way, an original resolution without resiżing is obtained

GBPJPY short

I haven't seen a GBPJPY chart in here in a while. Looks like a flat just completed with C = 1.618 * A (see yellow line)

This could be an impulsive move down or X of a double. Either way, near an entry point that could be 150-151 target on relatively low risk.

Also, head and shoulders pattern could target 148 (blue line). Seems like more reasons to go short than long with good risk here.

Hi Marketwavez,

I'm not sure what your point of telling me this was supposed to be???

I don't agree that being in NYC has anything to do with trading success. There are as many people in NYC who are successful and as many who aren't as there are in any other part of the world. Your success or failure as a trader comes down to how well you manage yourself as a trader and how you manage your trading business. There are people who are great analysts, but who can't make a successful trade to save their life. And on the otherhand, there are people who are only mediocre at analyzing a market, but who have great success at trading. The difference between the two is in how they each manage their trading businesses. A good business plan can turn mediocre analysis and average trading systems into great success. It doesn't matter how many advanced books you've read or how many seminars a person has been to. Nor does their geographic location play a part. It all comes down to how well you can manage yourself as a trader. Risk and money management are indeed two components of a proper trading system, but there are many more things that must be included to ensure your success as a trader. Risk management alone will not get it done for you.

At the moment I'm in a hot-ass desert in the Middle East trading, when I can, from a loptop computer. I'm doing just as well here as I do when I'm in Jersey or in NYC. Not only is my trading going well here, but I'm able to continue my research into the trading and financial industry here in the desert just as well as if I were in NYC. Geographic location is not a limiting factor to your success or failure as a trader.

-Justin

Justy,

That is true today. However, there was a time BEFORE computers, laptops, etc. when none of what we do today was possible. What we have is a relatively new ability to access information. The computer age and Internet changed the whole concept of trading. Believe it or not none of this even existed as late as 25 years ago.

Ok, now I do agree with Qsx. This is the most weird I ever had read in this forum (well, after that passed Xiao nickname), but still this might be one of the best with his EW charts I had seen in here.

Right. But we all live and trade, today, in the age of computers and with the easy flow of information worldwide. So again, I don't think geographic location has any bearing on successful trading.

EUR YEN

Looking at the EUR YEN ITD chart, comparison of ITD 12 positions to previous two cycles show that the current cycle's ITD 12 high position could already be IN at 134.75. Confirmation of a daily candle close below 132.74 is required to safely conclude it.

Looking at the EUR YEN MTD chart, comparison of MTD 8 high positions to previous two cycles also show that the current cyce's MTD 8 high position could already be IN at 134.75. The same confirmation of a candle close below 132.74 is required for more safety.

In other words, Intermediate and Medium Term top have either already been IN or very near to arrival.

My training comes from my exposure in New York City .......
I am among top talent in person


-------------------------------------------------- --------------
Sure you don't have to be here to trade :

You can trade form anywhere ,
including while on a toilet seat taking a dump .....

------------------------------- -------------------- --------------


I never said you have to be here in New York City , Justy

--------------------------------------------- -------------- --------
I'm only giving you my personal experience

that's all Justy ......

------------------------------------------- -------------------- ---------

and by the way , i was just also saying to you that
some of the successful traders live where you live
on the other side of the river, right in your backyard
( though they commute to work in the city )


--------------------------------------------------------- --------- -------------- -----
Traders come from all walks off life .............. We all know this


May the force be with you , .............. Always ! ..............
