📍Part #1, Elliott Waves: "Introduction. Classification".Hello! Dear colleagues, because I am constantly analyzing the markets with the help of wave analysis. Many colleagues ask me about it and I decided to make some tutorial posts to help you in this difficult task. I want to present this information to you in a simple and straightforward manner. Well, enough unnecessary text, let's get started! A bit of history from Wikipedia. Ralph Nelson Elliott (1871-1948), an American accountant, developed a model for the underlying social principles of financial markets by studying their price movements, and developed a set of analytical tools in the 1930s. He proposed that market prices unfold in specific patterns, which practitioners today call Elliott waves, or simply waves. Elliott stated that "because man is subject to rhythmical procedure, calculations having to do with his activities can be projected far into the future with a justification and certainty heretofore unattainable." In simple words, human behavior is quite predictable. And since it is mostly people who trade on the markets, we can predict its movement with some probability. Well. Let's explore what these waves are. Let's start by categorizing them. The movements are mostly carried out by a five-wave structure. 📍 Modes: Motive & Corrective Waves unfold in two distinct forms: motive and corrective. Motive waves exhibit a five-wave structure, featuring both a five-wave model and its co-directional components—waves 1, 3, and 5. The term "motive" is attributed to this structure due to its inherent ability to energize and set the market in motion. On the other hand, corrective waves, prevalent in countertrend movements, follow a three-wave structure or its variations. The name "corrective" stems from their nature as responses to preceding motive waves, executing partial retracements or "corrections" of the prior progress. Hence, these two wave types stand apart not only in their roles but also in their fundamental construction. Motive 📍 Styles: Impulse & Diagonal. There are two types of motive waves: impulse and diagonal. As a rule, they alternate in the position of waves 1-5 impulses and waves A-C of the zigzag. 📍 Patterns: Impulse, Leading Diagonal & Ending Diagonal Five-wave action model. Creates forward progress.Motive waves are limited to three patterns: Impulse, Leading and Ending Diagonals. Corrective 📍 Groups: Simple & Combined The corrective mode has two groups, simple and combined. Combined corrections are subdivided into simple corrective structures. The group of simple corrections includes: flat, triangle and single zigzag. Combined group — multiple zigzag and combination. 📍 Styles: Sharp & Sideways There are two styles of corrective processes: sharp and sideways. If wave two of an impulse is a sharp correction, expect wave four to be a sideways correction, and vice versa. 📍 Patterns: Flat, Triangle, Single Zigzag, Multiple Zigzag and Combination 📍 Three-wave or five-wave (which have characteristics of both fives and threes) or their combination model of counteraction. Always produces a net retracement from the previous wave. Corrective patterns include: single and multiple zigzags, triangle, flat, combination. Variations 📍Divergences in Elliott Wave patterns manifest in two conditional categories: variations in form and variations in the quantity of simple structures. Impulses, diagonals, flats, triangles, and single zigzags are distinguished by the proportional length of their sub-waves, shaping the model uniquely. On the other hand, combined corrections, incorporating multiple zigzags and combinations, maintain a consistent shape, and their identification is based on the count of simple corrective structures they encompass. This was an introductory lesson on Elliott waves. Further we will examine each type and subspecies of waves in detail in a separate lesson! 🔔 Click on the links below this lesson! 🔔

📍Part # 8, Combination - Corrective Waves.👩🏻‍💻 Hello ! This time we're going to look at combinations. It may seem too complicated, but don't worry. In fact, any combination simply consists of two corrective patterns that you and I already know, only between these two patterns there is a connecting wave. Let's go straight to the rules and everything will become clear to you at once! ✅ Rules ✅ 📍A “double three” combination comprises two corrective patterns separated by one corrective pattern in the opposite direction, labeled 'X'. The first corrective pattern is labeled 'W', the second 'Y'. 📍A "double three" combination comprises (in order) a zigzag and a flat, a flat and a zigzag, a flat and a flat, a zigzag and a triangle or a flat and a triangle. 📍Wave 'X' appears as a zigzag or flat. 📍Wave 'X' always retraces at least 90 percent of wave 'W'. 📍Combinations have a sideways look. With respect to waves 'W' and 'Y' in a double three, only one of those waves in each type of combination appears as a single zigzag. 📍Combinations can occur in the same wave positions as flats and triangles (except for the triangle subwave) but cannot occur in waves 'W' and 'Y'. ✅ Guidelines ✅ 📍Wave 'X' is often 123.6-138.2% the 'W' wavelength, less often wave 'X' retraces 161.8% or more. Don't expect wave 'X' to be more than 261.8% of wave 'W'. 📍Wave 'X' is usually a single or multiple zigzag. 📍When a zigzag or flat appears too small to be the entire wave with respect to the preceding wave (or, if it is to be wave '4', the preceding wave '2'), a combination is likely.

Hellena | Oil (4H): Long to resistance area of 87.47.Dear Colleagues, at the moment the price has made a strong downward movement. I suppose that the price is in wave "4" and can continue its movement to the support area of 80.22, but I consider only long positions, because the price can make a reversal at once. I recommend to work with pending orders. The nearest target is the resistance area at 87.47. Manage your capital correctly and competently! Only enter trades based on reliable patterns!

📍Part #7, Multiple Zigzag - Corrective Waves - Combined.👩🏻‍💻Hello! Dear colleagues, this is the 7th lesson on wave analysis and today we are going to look at Multiple Zigzag. We already know what a Zigzag is, so we will not look at this pattern for a long time, but just to clarify that Multiple Zigzag consists of several Zigzags. Let's get to the rules and guidelines! ✅ Rules ✅ 📍A Multiple Zigzag comprise two (or three) single zigzags separated by one (or two) corrective pattern(s) in the opposite direction, labeled "X". In the first case, it is called «double zigzag», in the second - «triple zigzag» (The first single zigzag is labeled "W", the second "Y", and the third, if there is one, "Z".) 📍Waves "W", "Y" and "Z" are always single zigzags. 📍Wave "X" never goes beyond the beginning of waves "W" and "Y". 📍Wave "Y" always ends past the end of the "W", and wave "Z", if any, always ends past the end of the "Y". 📍The first "X" wave always ends on the territory of the "W" wave, the second "X", if any, on the territory of the "Y" wave. 📍In a triple zigzag, the first "X" wave is always a zigzag, flat or combination. The second "X" wave is always a zigzag, flat, triangle or combination. 📍In a double zigzag, wave "X" is always a zigzag, flat, triangle, or combination. 📍Double and triple zigzags replace single zigzags, but cannot appear as "W", "Y", or "Z" waves. ✅ Guidelines ✅ 📍In a double zigzag, wave "Y" can equal wave "W", .618 wave "W", 1.618 wave "W", or terminate at a distance equal to 1.618 wave "W" past wave "W". In a triple zigzag, there can be equality among waves "W", "Y" and "Z", or wave "Z" can equal 1.618 wave "Y", 1.618 wave "Y", or terminate at a distance equal to 1.618 wave "Y", past wave "Y". In a triple zigzag, the Fibonacci relationships between waves "W" and "Y", would be the same as a double zigzag. 📍The Fibonacci relationships between waves "W" and "X" in a double zigzag, and waves "Y" and "XX" in a triple zigzag are analogous to the relationships between waves "A" and "B" in a single zigzag. 📍In a double zigzag, as a guideline, wave "b" of wave "Y" should not break the trendline that connects the beginning of wave "W" with the end of wave "X". 📍As a guideline, wave "X" (second wave "X" of the triple zigzag) of a double zigzag should break the trend channel formed by the first zigzag in wave "W" ("Y") and be greater than 80% of subwave "b" of wave "W" ("Y" and "Z"). 📍When a zigzag appears too small to be the entire wave with respect to the preceding wave (or, if it is to be wave "4", the preceding wave "2"), the complication of the structure to a multiple zigzag will probably follow.

Hellena | DJI (4H): Long to the resistance area of 38458.Dear colleagues, I believe that wave "4" is not yet completed. To complete it, it is necessary to complete the double zig-zag. I expect that the movement "c" will end in the area of 37350, then I expect growth and the beginning of wave "5" with the goal to reach at least the resistance area of 38458. Be careful, perhaps wave "c" will be a bit shorter and it will mean that the upward movement will start earlier. Manage your capital correctly and competently!

📍Part #6, FLAT - Corrective Waves-Simple-Sideways corrections.👩🏻‍💻Hello! In this lecture, we will cover one of the options for corrective cycles, namely Flat. Let's now look at the 'flat' separately as a stand-alone correctional structure. I remind you, 'flat' and 'plane' are essentially the same thing. So, the 'flat' always has a three-wave structure, and it looks like this: 3-3-5. That is, you can identify it by the third wave "C", which always has a five-wave structure. But it can also be a Ending diagonal. And all this will be within the scope of a regular 'flat' or 'plane'. If we draw a line from the base of wave A and the maximum of wave "B", and then also draw a line or level from the end of wave "A" and the end of wave "C", we will get parallel lines, which is exactly what the name Flat hints. And this wave "B" should roll back approximately 90% of wave "A" for everything to look nice. But not always, because there is also an expanded 'flat' and a running 'flat', whichever you prefer. Well then. Let's look at the main rules and guiding norms for flats. ✅General rules✅ 📍A flat always subdivides into three waves. 📍Wave "A" is always a zigzag, flat or combination. 📍Wave "B" is always a zigzag. 📍Wave "C" is always an impulse or a ending diagonal. ✅General guidelines✅ 📍Wave "A" is usually a zigzag. ✅Regular Flat✅ Rules 📍Wave "B" never goes beyond beyond the start of wave "A". 📍Wave "B" always retraces at least 90 percent of wave "A". 📍Wave "C" always ends past the end of wave "A". Guidelines 📍The rarest type of flat correction. ✅Expanded Flat✅ Rules 📍Wave "B" always ends after the start of wave "A". 📍Wave "C" always ends past the end of wave "A". Guidelines 📍Wave "B" usually retraces 123.6 or 138.2% of wave "A", less often — 161.8%. 📍Wave "C" is often equal to 161.8% of wave "A", less often — 261.8%. 📍The most common type of flat correction. ✅Running Flat✅ Rules 📍Wave "B" always ends after the start of wave "A". 📍Wave "C" never goes beyond the end of wave "A". Guidelines 📍Within such a flat wave "B" should end well above the origin of wave "A" and that means wave "C" might reflect a 61.8% or even a 100% relationship to wave "A". 📍A running flat indicates that the forces in the direction of the larger trend at next higher degree are powerful. 📍Wave "B" is usually no more than twice the length of wave "A". Keep in mind that a running flat is rare. Thank you for your attention! There will be another lecture next week! Don't miss it! 🔔Links to other lessons in related ideas.🔔

Hellena | DJI (4H): Long to the resistance area of 39419. Dear colleagues, the price has passed many points in the downward movement and at the moment I suppose that the price is completing the corrective wave "4" and very soon will start the upward movement in the wave "5". It is possible to update the low in the area of 38458 and then move to the resistance area of 39419. It is possible that the price will immediately start an upward movement, so I consider only long positions and will look for the best entries to this position.

📍Part 5: Corrective Waves - Simple - Triangle.Hello! ➡️In this lecture, we will cover one of the most common or popular correction options - triangles. I remind you that we are now considering various correction structures that are encountered both separately and can be part of more complex structures. ➡️Triangles are probably the most popular pattern for all beginners, yes, and not only beginners. It is quite often seen on the chart and most likely everyone tried to trade it according to classical recommendations, for example from books or a course, when essentially everything comes down to breaking dynamic resistance on one of the sides where you buy or sell. ➡️In history, everything looks pretty harmonious as usual, but in real-time, it turns out to be not that simple, and here maybe just the rules from wave analysis will help to avoid a certain number of errors. ➡️So let's take a look at the main rules and guiding norms for triangles! ✅ General Rules ✅ 📍A triangle always subdivides into five waves. 📍At least four waves among waves "a", "b", "c", "d" and "e" are subdivided into a single zigzag. 📍In a triangle, only one subwave can be a multiple zigzag or triangle. ✅ General guidelines ✅ 📍Usually, wave "c" or wave "d" subdivides into a "multiple zigzag" that is longer lasting and contains deeper percentage retracements than each of the other subwaves. 📍Alternating waves of a triangle may be in Fibonacci proportion to each other by a ratio of 0.618 for contracting triangles and 1.618 for expanding triangles. For example, in a contracting triangle, look for wave "c" to equal 0.618 of wave "a". 📍A triangle can be correction wave "4" in the impuls, wave "b" of a zigzag, wave "x" of a double or second wave of an "x" of a triple zigzag, sub-wave "c", "d" or "e" of a triangle and the last structure of a combination. ✅ Contracting Triangle ✅ Rules 📍Wave "c" never moves beyond the end of wave "a", wave "d" never moves beyond the end of wave "b", and wave "e" never moves beyond the end of wave "c". The result is that going forward in time, a line connecting the ends of waves "b" and "d" converges with a line connecting the ends of waves "a" and "c". 📍Waves "a" and "b" never subdivide into a triangle. 📍In a running contracting triangle, wave "b" should be no more than twice as long as wave "a". Guidelines 📍Sometimes one of the waves, usually wave "c", "d" or "e", subdivides into a contracting or barrier triangle. Often the effect is as if the entire triangle consisted of nine zigzags. 📍About 60% of the time, wave "b" goes beyond the beyond the start of wave "a". When this happens, the triangle is called a running contracting triangle. ✅ Barrier Triangle ✅ Rules 📍Wave "c" never moves beyond the end of wave "a", wave "d" never moves beyond the end of wave "b", and wave "e" never moves beyond the end of wave "c". The result is that going forward in time, a line connecting the ends of waves "b" and "d" converges with a line connecting the ends of waves "a" and "c". 📍Waves "b" and "d" end at essentially the same level. 📍In a running barrier triangle, wave "b" should be no more than twice as long as wave "a". Guidelines 📍About 60% of the time, wave "b" goes beyond the start of wave "a". When this happens, the triangle is called a running barrier triangle. 📍When wave "5" follows a barrier triangle, it is typically either a brief, rapid movement or an exceptionally long extension. ✅ Expanding Triangle ✅ Rules 📍Wave "c", "d" and "e" each moves beyond the end of the preceding same-directional subwave. (The result is that going forward in time, a line connecting the ends of waves "b" and "d" diverges from a line connecting the ends of waves "a" and "c.") 📍Subwaves "b", "c" and "d" each retrace at least 100 percent but no more than 150 percent of the preceding subwave. Guidelines 📍Subwaves "b", "c" and "d" usually retrace 105 to 125 percent of the preceding subwave.

Hellena | EUR/USD (4H): Long to resistance area at 1.08787.Dear Colleagues, for the last 3 weeks the markets have been in a volatile state, but I redraw the waves every time. I assume that the price has finished or is finishing wave "C". If the price has not finished wave "C" yet, I expect it to end in the support area at 1.07665. At the moment I suppose that in the coming week there will be a correction to the area of 1.08787. Manage your capital correctly and competently! Only enter trades based on reliable patterns!

Hellena | GOLD (4H): Short to support area of 2153.085. Dear Colleagues, I assume that the price is in the ending diagonal. This means that the price will update the maximum a little more, after which I expect the price to decline to the support area of 2153.085. I expect the 5 wave structure to complete the formation. Watch for updates of the idea, the price may start moving towards the target, so I do not recommend to consider long positions. Manage your capital correctly and competently!

📍 Part 4. Corrective Waves- Simple Zigzags - Sharp Corrections.👩🏻‍💻 Welcome to the 4th lecture on Elliott Waves! ➡️In this lecture, we will start discussing the variations for corrective movements. Let's begin with the simplest one - it's zigzags. ➡️By correction, we mean the construction "ABC" after an impulse. This reminds us of a zigzag, hence the name. Also, we can encounter it in each corrective wave, that is, "2" and "4" - it's the simplest and most common form of correction. ➡️As you recall from previous lectures, for waves "A" and "C," there are variations in the form of Leading and Ending Diagonals, and the same applies to "B," namely flat, zigzag, triangle, or even a combination, i.e., any three-wave pattern. Here it's worth remembering that wave structure is fractal, and there's no need to be afraid, just like with variations for impulses, namely leading and ending diagonals. ➡️Zigzags can often be embedded into a parallel channel. We've dealt with a simple zigzag. Most likely, your main questions are about variations for "B": flat, zigzag, triangle, or combination. On the cover of the learning materials, you will find the main variations of simple zigzags. Keep and use them! 📍 Let's look at the main rules and guidelines! 📍 📍 Guidelines: 📍 📍In a zigzag, wavelength "C" can be equal to wavelength "A". 📍Wave "B" is usually corrected at 38.2% - 78.6% of the length of wave "A". 📍If wave "B" is a triangle, is usually corrected at 38,2% - 50% of the length of wave "A". 📍If wave "B" is a zigzag, is usually corrected at 50% - 78.6% percent of wave "A". 📍In a zigzag, if wave "A" is a leading diagonal, then we would not expect to see an ending diagonal for wave "C". 📍A line connecting the ends of waves "A" and "C" is often parallel to a line connecting the end of wave "B" and the start of wave "A". (Forecasting guideline: Wave "C" often ends upon reaching a line drawn from the end of wave "A" that is parallel to a line connecting the start of wave "A" and the end of wave "B".) 📍Waves "A" and "C" within the zigzag often appear in the form of impulses, but more often alternate according to the type of motive waves: if wave "A" is an impulse, expect wave "C" in the form of a diagonal, and vice versa. It is much less common to find waves "A" and "C" in the form of diagonals. Thank you for your attention! There will be another lecture next week!

Hellena | Oil (4H): Short to support area 80.22.Colleagues, the price has redrawn the waves a bit, I was waiting for it and at the moment I assume that the price may update the wave "C", then I expect the price to decline to the support area of 80.22. This movement should update the minimum of the wave "B", then I will make a markdown and expect an upward movement, but for now I am considering only short positions.
