Study Notes
Elliott Wave Analysis
- Elliott Wave Analysis is a method of technical analysis that identifies patterns in price movements.
Labeling
- Labeling is an essential part of Elliott Wave Analysis, where waves are labeled as either motive or corrective.
Motive Waves
- Motive Waves are impulsive waves that move in the direction of the main trend.
- There are three types of motive waves: impulse, extension, and truncation.
Extensions
- Extensions occur when the third wave is the longest wave in the motive wave pattern.
- Extensions can be normal, running, or overlapping.
Truncation
- Truncation occurs when the fifth wave is shorter than the third wave in the motive wave pattern.
Corrective Waves
- Corrective Waves are countertrend waves that move against the main trend.
- There are four types of corrective waves: zig-zag, flat, triangle, and combination.
Zig-Zag
- A Zig-Zag is a corrective wave that has three legs, with each leg moving in the opposite direction.
Flat
- A Flat is a corrective wave that has three legs, with each leg moving in the same direction.
Triangles
- A Triangle is a corrective wave that has five legs, with each leg moving in an alternating direction.
Double and Triple Zig-Zag
- A Double or Triple Zig-Zag is a corrective wave that has multiple zig-zag patterns.
Combination (Double Three, Triple Three)
- A Combination is a corrective wave that combines two or more corrective wave patterns.
Fibonacci
- Fibonacci is a mathematical ratio used in Elliott Wave Analysis to identify retracement and extension levels.
- The Fibonacci ratio is approximately 1.618.
Fibonacci Ratios
- Fibonacci ratios are used to calculate retracement levels, with common ratios including 0.618, 0.382, 0.236, and 0.146.
Retracements – Impulse Waves
- Impulse Waves often retrace to the 23.6% or 38.2% Fibonacci level.
Retracements – Corrective Waves
- Corrective Waves have specific retracement levels, including 50-79% for Zig-Zag, 38-50% for Triangle, and 38-79% for Flat.
Multiples – Impulse Waves
- Impulse Waves can extend to multiples of the Fibonacci ratio, such as 1.618 or 2.618.
Multiples – Corrective Waves
- Corrective Waves can also extend to multiples of the Fibonacci ratio.
Dividers
- Dividers are used to separate and identify different wave patterns.
Trading Elliott Wave
- Trading with Elliott Wave Analysis requires identifying the current wave pattern and anticipating the next wave.
Behavioral
- Behavioral aspects of Elliott Wave Analysis include understanding market psychology and sentiment.
