Earl -
I am only familiar with Bob Miner's work on a second hand basis. I have seen
positive and negative reviews of his stuff, though far more positive than
negative. I definitely agree with the overly complex approach not making
sense. Miner's approach though says that maybe it works and maybe it does
not -- at least according to what others have told me. To me, that is not
totally valid either.
However, if Miner is saying there are times where wave counts are not
decipherable (as in during complex corrections) and you should not waste
time trying to take s-t trading cues from them, I would agree. That said, a
complex correction may be bit of information one could use to come up with
an options trading strategy.

While not a purist's approach to EW, I think that there is a great deal
to be said for simplicity ... if the pattern is clear, it can be traded
and if it's not clear one should stand aside until it is clear. Not that
one might not miss some trades from correct interpretation of complex
patterns, especially all those zig zags and complex's, but trading is a
business of stacking the odds in one's favor so risk/reward should be
more favorable where the patterns are clear. For those reasons I prefer
Robert Miner's simplistic and straightforward approach to EW.
