Re: [RT] Elliott wave count

BW,
You asked "OK, so you are saying it's a momentum indicator that predicts
what the MACD will do?"

DE: Not sure if I could say yes or no to that, I do not know the algorithm?
I view it mainly as a tool that tells me when I should be questioning what
are the other possibilities here, since something is not quite right with
this pattern.  At that point would normally trade my trading position from
one with a good setup to one with a questionable setup (ala a wave 4 sell
here thinking a new wave 5 low will come in from here). It's a warning sign
to not just jump on a type #1 trade which is after a wave 4 to capture wave
5.

BW: You asked " Most of the "testing" has been done in Bull market
conditions? Has it been tested on 1930's, 1966-1982, or recent Nikkei data?
"

DE: I don't know the answer about how far they went back His email (Tom
Joseph) is gettrader@xxxxxxxxx I believe. You could email him and ask for
specifics I suppose, he would know if anyone?

BW: You asked "Contrary to what" Recall you had asked in the prior email
"Why / when would you ignore *your* clearly very bearish EW count based on
the PTI?"

DE: My answer was in my prior email that the low PTI is saying something may
be wrong, that the wave 4 may not be a normal wave 4, and as such prices can
go higher than what a wave 4 normally does overall?

BW: You asked "So many EWers on the list, yet not one mentioned SPX 966 is a
perfect A=C"

DE:  Look at the very right side of the 60min chart I sent (in red, swing
target) :-)
