    Patience is virtue. The sooner we learn this all, sooner we can start walking to the bank. Good Luck to all of us—
    The trick is to wait the price meet ur limits, instead of one jumping in.. however scalps is a totally different scenario and is not everyone's cup of tea

    Hey folks I cant seem to find the answer in searches so here it is,

    Can a wedge take place as an A wave.

    Or is a wedge kind of a terminal structure (I believe I have heard this)

    Need info because it looks like what we are in at the moment is a wedge thus turn around soon just the 4 and 5 left then the march up for a good ways.

    on shorter time frames aud resis 9760-63 ... gu 5586-88 and eu testing now 31-33...
    gu 5522 touch completes the min drop, aud 9677 and eu 3472-76..
    if these resis holds out a drop more likely on moves to be completed..
    i may have taken 5568 short on gu way too early.....
    heading out for a while with some entries to short from above points to adding and stops above...

    yah I think it is Although where you have C ending could very well be an A and thus a B with a C will finish off the bigger pattern to what I believe will be the lowest low we will have for a while.



    Just a thought for you if it was an ed your labeling should be showing 3-3-3-3-3 no 5 wavers in there unless your implied C is part of an ED on a larger time frame (just realized that could be)

    well I have 1.3420 and 1.3404 at targets from 2 time frames so that could be interesting. It is certainly worth watching
    but if we get a retrace soon then it will prob be an ugly B and the ensuing C would hit the area around 1.3253 which is my T2 on the bigger time frame on my preferred count.
    well nap time for now
    Might as well go do some snoring to keep the wife awake she appreciates that so very much

    leading diagonal can be an A wave, p.19: http://www.fusioninvesting.com/Files...liot-waves.pdf

    hey guys, i'm less keen on it getting far lower but i think we could have a bit more to go. heres my count for now. looks like we could be ending a correction to me. Look at the divergence. just took a nice quick scalp off the end of d wave at resistance:

    Attachment 98970

    looks like decent support on the 2hr chart as well:

    Attachment 98971

    I'm unsure about next week. May go higher as Bernanke is going towards QE3, but theres still a big gap on the dax that needs closing and i'm a little worried about that. I like the analogy method of trading, where patterns are repeated. and with the one i posted last night that turned out to work, whats to say that the short term may not roughly relate to the longer term???:

    Attachment 98972
    still looking for the 38.2 retracement

    Also gave me a chance to use my creative drawing

    about your first chart - ABC as 3-3-3 ? I know about 3-3-5 and 5-3-5 but not 3-3-3

    thats because technically there is no 333 in an ABC correction it is labeled as WXY and is known as a triple zigzag or triple three depending on its structure. but its still a valid count just easier to label that way cause most people know ABC

    That is sooo true. I wonder whether the French realize they are part of the Fourth Reich?!! haha

    If Europe ramps up that EFSF from $400B to the $3-trillion it will actually need for bailouts, they will have to "print" 3-million new €1-million currency notes LOL... and they could put a picture of Merkel on each €1-million note

    And how about these new Federal reserve notes that honour everyone's favourite optimist

    A lot of self proclaimed genius pooh-bahs have written books comparing the US to the Roman Empire- it's almost a cliche and worn out topic. People actually said the same thing about the British Empire ,which actually was an empire, much more so than the US. Im sure you know that the influence of Great Britain is still felt all over the world, which is why English is the universal language now, the "reserve" language, and it probably will be for a long time. But the UK isn't really an empire anymore, and it doesn't really make any difference, the country is still relatively prosperous by world standards, and nobody really cares about the fact that they "gave" Hong Kong back to the Chinese are anything else.
    I have the opinion that history doesn't repeat itself because its never that simple and the universe is a lot more random than that.

    As far as increasing the EFSF, even if Chancellor Merkel bowed to international pressure and was willing to continue to write blank bail out checks, she would be prevented from doing so by the German parliament, which has to approve every increase in the EFSF. So I'm afraid there will be more pain and writeoffs in the EU.But if the ECB takes aggressive action now and adds liquidity to the market they might be able to prevent a complete freezing up of the credit markets. Unfortunately, it might already be too late
