Bubba, couple of questions:

1) your chart says, "Tradestation chart" but the symbol is wrong for it to be TS. It should be ESH09, not ES H9. Only reason I'm asking is to figure out what sort of charting you're using. Would that be Multicharts, perchance? Just curoius.

2) I've got a Gartley indicator on my Tradestation chart, and it's not picking up the Gartley that you're showing. I think that point C is too low for a traditional Gartley...but then again I'm no expert. BTW, I'm counting my points the "traditional" way for Gartleys (X-A-B-C-D). The attachment to this post shows the Inputs for my Gartley. Does yours look anything at all like this?

 

I just realized that my post is doubly off topic. Oh well. I won't make a habit of it.

Tasuki - i use tradestation 2000i. the symbol is the proper setting for my setup with IB data feed. that's the difference.

 

i suspect our gartley indicator is the same. here's my parameters. i'm even worse on these than i am w/ WWs. :)

Here are @YM Wolfe Waves (Not perfect but potential WW).. The first Chart (12.40p) I traded today (not because of WWs) but I watched it unfold in RT. I like certain aspects of WW and its predictability so far....

here's what i think is a pretty classic WW.. but again, take it w/ a grain of salt :)

 

nice descending wedge w/ well proportioned swings.

 

(now, i better get out my "Trade Chart Patterns Like a Pro" and study that ABC.)

 

/just noticed i labeled point 3 as "2".. gawd, sry

Hi bubba,

 

Here is @ES X5 Pattern formation...

 

Usually in X5 patterns, the retracement of "B" gives a clue of what type of Pattern it may be forming. There are other rules it may have to form. But when "B" is retraced beyond 61.8% (Gartley), it may be suggesting a potential Butterfly or Crab pattern.

 

In this chart, B is 71%, suggesting may be a Butterfly (near 127% to 684) or Crab (near 162% to 614).

 

BTW, thanks for your kind comments about my book.

 

Regards,

Suri

 

 

noticed this pattern when i got home this evening. i haven't seen 1 of these on the daily before. anyone considering buying this low? i don't know about this 1

:confused:

 

(not that i KNOW about any of them of course)

Suri -

WW works best in choppy sideways markets - not trending. The run from 4 to 5 was too long. The move from 4-5 should be short and violent - scaring out the people who bought at pt. 4.

 

This is a chart of SPY 20 min.

 

There is a potential WW forming that could work nicely. Note pt 2 is a major high. Lots of overlap in the waves which means range. The move to pt. 5 is beginning rapidly, will momentum continue tomorrow morning?

 

The danger in this trade is the higher time frame - this is the top of a huge range, and a large channel. The peak last week formed at a perfect timing pt - (see the conversation on Andrews pitchfork where we marked the recent top).

 

If last weeks peak was the top, then the next andrews line points steeply down.

 

In the case of WW, the higher time frame always overrules. This one you have to be careful on and watch closely as the purple 1-3 line is broken.

wave slider i want to thank you for this great thread

 

here i m posting two WW of same security of different time frame in all the criteria both look good but in opposite nature

what is your view about the same i will update as they unfolds

 

first one is 15-min & second 5-min

 

if something like this happened which you prefer

I am daytrader i like WW because of its high RRR(risk reward ratio)

Glad this thread got this pattern in my head - did anyone else catch this classic one today in ES?

It was good for about 6 points, just picture perfect trade.

 

Taq-

 

look for ranging situations. The 1-3 lines you draw are very steep.

 

Also use the pivot low/high instead of vaguely drawing through bars. It is important to realize why the pattern is working and see the psychology of the crowd.

 

I don't think those patterns you sent are valid. Study the pattern I have here...

Suri,

I think you're still missing the psychology of the WW. I think I've gone over some of this somewhere in a previous post on this thread, but a brief example---point #2 is supposed to the lowest low or highest high for quite some time---it's a "fear-factor" pivot that drives traders to unwillingly get out of their positions at exactly the wrong moment.

Whenever I'm looking for a WW, pivot #2 is the "sore thumb" I look for--it sticks out as plain as day. I don't see that "sore thumb" look in the potential WW you have shown for the ES.

Hope this helps,

Tasuki

Agree with you Tasuki, these are not wolfe waves. The reason for the pattern's success is the psychology, as you stated. There has to be strong participation "washing" people out and getting them positioned on the wrong side of the mkt.

Pt. #2 (bearish scenario) should look to bulls like a bottom. Pt.#4 should look like a higher low potentially giving a confirmation of a bottom.

Then it all falls apart and the wolves take over (supposedly).

 

Most important is that this pattern happens in a ranging situation- a trend on a higher time frame negates the pattern....

Hi Tasuki and Waveslider,

 

I agree with both of you... I was bit doubtful of WW and need to know

lot more about WWs. But I also had other reasons to trade this pattern.

Perhaps this could be a variation of a Broadening Pattern??

 

See how overall the pattern resulted. I will post few other pics and

how the setup was anticipated. I did have help from

ABC Bearish/H&S Setups (from previous posts) also.

 

Thanks for your insights.

 

Regards,

Suri

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful.
