Scott,
     I think I'll come out & play on your request. With the use of GET, 
E-wave and some Fib #'s here's what I see on S01Q. Now be gentle, I'm still 
learning!:

1) Take a look at the Elliott Oscillator at the 538 top. No divergence which 
indicates to me that the recent high is a Wave 3 not a Wave 5. I also ran an 
161.8% extension of Wave 1 from the bottom of Wave 2. The high of 538 took 
out this extension with room to spare which leads me to believe that we have 
just witnessed a Wave 3 not a Wave C. Price blew right through the 100% 
extension which is the norm for a Wave C.

2) O.K. now that I've hypothesized that a Wave 3 is complete it's time to 
determine Wave 4 targets. The first thing I measure for a Wave 4 is the 38.2% 
extension of Wave 3 in TIME. I won't consider a Wave 4 complete before this 
minimum time constraint. 07/24 is the date for beans. I then run the 
retracements of Waves 1-3 and Wave 3 to come up with Wave 4 target areas. In 
this case the price clusters are at 490 5/8 - 493 1/4 then 479 1/2 and 
finally 463 1/2 - 465 3/4. The first target was just about reached both 
yesterday and today with today's bar being a Reversal Day (RD)/Inside Day and 
the completion of a Tweezer bottom.  With that being said, I believe only 
Wave A:4 is complete: >)

3) Shown on the chart is GET's proprietary indicator, the Short & Normal 
Ellipses. I have seen MANY times the Short term Ellipse catch a TEMPORARY low 
i.e. Wave A:4, at a significant fib level. In this case the 38.2% retracement 
of Waves 1-3. Because of this I expect a short term rise back up towards 538. 
The (3) retracement levels to look at are 516 then 521 1/8 and finally 528 
1/2. Since it is a Wave B I would expect a minimum retracement of at least 
50% so 516 would be my minimum 2-3 day target. This should be followed by one 
more move down towards the 479 1/2 target. Also note that a gap needs to be 
filled between 522 1/2 & 525 1/2 so I wouldn't be surprised to see a deep 
Wave B retracement back into that area. One more thing, the Elliott 
Oscillator normally heads towards 0 in a Wave 4 retracement. At this point 
it's not even close which is another reason why I believe Wave 4 is not 
complete. 

4) One last thing before I move on to the next post w/ a 60 minute chart for 
tighter entry. I always look at the 14 period RSI. From Andrew Cardwell I 
have learned to gage trends by using this indicator. In simple terms if you 
see the RSI running between 40 - 80 then you're likely to be in a nice 
uptrend. On the other hand if it runs between 20 - 60 then a downtrend is in 
progress. Oscillations between 40-60 is trading range territory. A good sign 
of a CIT would be this scenario. A market has been moving in an uptrend with 
the RSI14 running between 40-80. Watch out when the RSI bounces off of 40, 
moves up to 60 but can't break through. Odds are the trend is running out of 
steam and a CIT is in the cards. As for beans the RSI held 40 on all 
retracements since April 26th, the day it broke 40, and has broken 60 twice 
without stalling. If my current scenario is correct then 40 should hold this 
Wave 4 retracement.

I'll send a quick follow up post with a 60 minute chart for entry & stop loss.
Scott, now aren't you glad you asked (ggg)
