  I think you make two valid points: know how to do the counts yourself and 
  beable to control/apply your own counts when you don't like the 
  automatedcounts. I highly recommend the simplified EW approach used by 
  Robert Minerin his Dynamic Trader book ($100 with full money back 
  guarantee at<A 
  href="http://www.dynamictraders.com";>www.dynamictraders.com) ... I don't 
  use the DT3 software. I'm not familiarwith EW3 (I did have WinWaves and 
  didn't care for it), however AGet which Iuse, allows one to control counts 
  to a limited degree (short term,aggressive, regular, long term, plus 
  localize) ... as a last resort I justturn the EW counts off and apply my 
  own labels.
   
  I'm also a "Miner," surviving 
  without any automation.  In my case, however, EW is just background with 
  Fibonacci and Gann in the foreground.

  forecasting-track record  Jeff:  Looking for a holy 
  grail?  Have u ever looked into the EW3 (Elliott Wave)  
  software?  I can't find anyone who uses it, but it sounds awfully 
  good.  Anyone here familiar w/ EW3?  I have not used 
  EWII but did use the previous version WinWaves, and EWIIis supposed to 
  have a better analysis engine.  However, a couple ofthoughts.  
  What is the correct count?  There are many counts and in the 
  lastanalysis the only one that is right is yours.  So being able to 
  do your owncount is important, and the software is a tool to increase your 
  efficiencyand, perhaps, help you over the rough spots.  Having said 
  that, oneimportant feature that I would be sure to have is the ability to 
  input mycount and see how it plays.  Most EW programs do not have 
  this option, butif I recall correctly ELWave does.  
  FWIW.  best wishes,  karen  ps - May the force 
  be with you.  :>)  :>)  ----- Original
