All I can say is, wow - -that is one of the nicest ones I have ever seen.

 

This one is perfect because it fails above the range (marked with horiz. white lines) and below the range.

 

#2 point gave people plenty of time to get long.

 

#4 to #5 was steep and dramatic, beginning with a gap and hardly looking back.

Here we go again -

 

Ever since the market has made this steep move up with no pullbacks, I have been suspicious. Direct sustained moves through resistance are usually a run on stops engineered to create fear. This move has fear written all over it.

 

Fear is what creates a perfect 4-5 move in a wolfe wave, so here we go.

 

Daily charts of $spx.x and FDX.

 

The S&P point #1 starts at the 50% level of a range.

 

The other chart I have here is for Fedex, what is interesting is that it has the same WW pattern, but if you run an Andrews pitchfork on the pattern, the centerline runs perfectly with the WW line. I shorted a little today.

Suri,

I agree with your broadening top situation.

If you look at the chart I posted, the #1 point is further back.

So point 4 is slightly below point #1.

Having a hard time believing in the rally, internals and volume have just been horrible, so that leaves just short covering powering this one.

The only standout is the nasdaq, which is powering along well.

I am bit puzzled... I thought I posted this chart in the morning

along with my previous post and now I do not see :(

 

Anyway, Here is the Broadening Pattern targets if it materializes.

Broadening Patterns are rare but reliable.

 

Some exhaustion rally may still push SPX a bit higher.

 

Regards,

Suri

traderdan,

Compare the first and second charts you posted. The second one was just about perfect, but the first one wasn't 100% Wolfe-like, so to speak. Note that pivot 1 in the second chart was right in the middle of the range, and that pivot 2 dipped to new lows, scaring the pants off retail traders (that's what pivot 2 is spoze to do). The first chart lacked those salient features. It still might work out, of course. Just thought I'd point out those details for everyone's edification.

I see what you're saying. The first one didn't work out in this case.

is it a valid wolfe wave pattern?

 

Simple answer: No. this is a rolling chop, not a Wolfe Wave. Look at previous examples and read my psychological description in earlier posts of this thread to understand the WW.

I am also studying Wolfe Wave. From what has just recently been explained to me, points 1-3 and points 2-4 must converge to be a valid Wolfe Wave pattern. I have not seen those converging elements in most of the charts posted on this thread. Waveslider, Suri....thoughts?

You are correct that the pattern should converge. Also, the lesson I have learned that is most valuable is that volatility should be high, and the move to point five should be a very fast move.

The chart you posted (don't know what to call you with that user name!) seems to be grinding higher, I doubt it's a WW, though your point one and two look excellent.

Thank you Waveslider. I came across a site called TheHarmonicTrader...I downloaded his free PDF and was wondering if you had seen his work. Think I will check out Suri's book also.. I am not constantly profitable yet due to MM and RR skills. I like the idea of these patterns (not wolfe wave) being formed by the FIB ratios. Thanks again for you input.

 

Don't worry about the Hesychast thing....you can call me Ron. Peace be unto you.

What is MM and RR? By the way there is no safer way to pick tops and bottoms than Wolfe. And by the way not all Wolfes must have converging lines to be valid. 100% of my trades are Wolfes with 1/4 having diverging lines. Just my 2 cents.

 

Study Wolfe and nothing else. My today's trade enclosed. Moderate $734 per lot during a two hour morning trade. There are about 10 - 12 such trades during week.

 

Regards

    • 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.
