the trouble with elliott
thanks for the reply... it shouldn't .. what could happen is that the spike will amount to an extension which the rest of the waves, as they unfold to complete this degree, will effectively truncate as they don'yt amount to a posting of a new low
i must admit that elliott is difficult at times and need to remind myself it's all about probabilities...
i agree that the cash dow looks like an expanded flat [X] or 4th but...??..the trouble i've had with the cash is that the YM will complete the lessor degree waves overnight and i wait patiently for the cash to put them in only for the cash to ignore what i'm expecting and play cath me up with YM! So i follow the nadaq and sp500, too, to compliment / help /tweak/ [corrupt?!] my count so that it's tradable!!!..there is sooo much to learn!
i guess we all develop our own way of " seeing" things ..but i try above all to "follow" the market rather than impose my will on it..really hard to do sometimes!
i'll cut this waffle as time passes as i become more familiar with this board..
thanks
