Market Nexus Points
Robert Prechter’s book “Beautiful Pictures” illustrated several examples in which long-term stock market structures could be divided into Fibonacci price/time sections.

Its possible theContinue reading “Market Nexus Points”

Continuing Counter Trend Rally
Recently one of my friends who also analyzes the markets asked me; what was the maximum retracement for Elliott second waves. My answer was 99.9%. Wave “twos” generally have deep retracements, the most common Fibonacci level is .618. Sometimes wave “two’s” can have shallow retracements – there’re in the minority. The reason wave “twos”Continue reading “Continuing Counter Trend Rally”
