I did my counts by hand for years and purchased AGet for another
perspective. AGet does a decent job of counts perhaps half the time
which is about as good as most analysts. I continue to do my own counts
and if they don't agree with AGet's, I either accept AGet's counts (if
they look superior) or turn off AGet's counts and use my own. I've also
gained an understanding of where AGet tends to go wrong and don't
hesitate to shut off the counts under those circumstances. I do like the
drawing tools and a couple of the proprietary tools (MOB, Ellipse, Fib
time tool) in AGet so it's become my primary trading platform.
Generally, like any methodology, the best trades are found where the
ducks line up in all time periods and the worst trades where the signals
conflict.
