  • New Elliott Wave Principle
    History The Elliott Wave Theory is named after Ralph Nelson Elliott. In the 1930s, Ralph Nelson Elliott found that the markets exhibited certain repeated patterns. His primary research was with stock market data for the Dow Jones Industrial Average. This research identified patterns or waves that recur in the markets. Very simply, in the direction of the trend, expect five waves. Any corrections against the trend are in three waves. Three wave corrections are lettered as "a, b, c." These patterns can be seen in long-term as well as in short-term charts. In Elliott's model, market prices alternate between an impulsive, or motive phase, and a corrective phase on all time scales of trend, as the illustration shows. Impulses are always subdivided into a set of 5 lower-degree waves, alternating again between motive and corrective character, so that waves 1, 3, and 5 are impulses, and waves 2 and 4 are smaller retraces of waves 1 and 3. Corrective waves subdivide into 3 smaller-degree waves. In a bear market the dominant trend is downward, so the pattern is reversed—five waves down and three up. Motive waves always move with the trend, while corrective waves move against it and hence called corrective waves. Ideally, smaller patterns can be identified within bigger patterns. In this sense, Elliott Waves are like a piece of broccoli, where the smaller piece, if broken off from the bigger piece, does, in fact, look like the big piece. This information (about smaller patterns fitting into bigger patterns), coupled with the Fibonacci relationships between the waves, offers the trader a level of anticipation and/or prediction when searching for and identifying trading opportunities with solid reward/risk ratios.

  • Elliott Wave Principle.Pdf.Pdf
    A CAPSULE SUMMARY OF THE WAVE PRINCIPLE The Wave Principle is Ralph Nelson Elliott's discovery that social, or crowd, behavior trends and reverses in recognizable patterns. Using stock market data as his main research tool, Elliott isolated thirteen patterns of movement, or "waves," that recur in market price data. He named, defined and illustrated those patterns. He then described how these structures link together to form larger versions of those same patterns, how those in turn link to form identical patterns of the next larger size, and so on. In a nutshell, then, the Wave Principle is a catalog of price patterns and an explanation of where these forms are likely to occur in the overall path of market development. Pattern Analysis Until a few years ago, the idea that market movements are patterned was highly controversial, but recent scientific discoveries have established that pattern formation is a fundamental characteristic of complex systems, which include financial markets. Some such systems undergo "punctuated growth," that is, periods of growth alternating with phases of non- growth or decline, building fractally into similar patterns of increasing size. This is precisely the type of pattern identified in market movements by R.N. Elliott some sixty years ago. The basic pattern Elliott described consists of impulsive waves (denoted by numbers) and corrective waves (denoted by letters). An impulsive wave is composed of five subwaves and moves in the same direction as the trend of the next larger size. A corrective wave is composed of three subwaves and moves against the trend of the next larger size.

  • A Study to Understand Elliott Wave Principle

Specifically, crowd psychology will move from optimism to pessimism, and back up again, making it possible to forecast the progression of certain market trends. "The Wave Principle" is Ralph Nelson Elliott's discovery that social, or crowd, behavior trends and reverses in recognizable patterns. The Wave Principle is not primarily a forecasting tool; it is a detailed description of how markets behave. Many areas of mass human activity follow the Wave Principle, but the stock market is where it is most popularly applied. Indeed, the stock market considered alone is far more important than it seems to casual observers. According to the Elliott Wave theory, market move in the five distinct waves existing on the upside and the three distinct waves existing on the downside. The upwards waves that lie in the bull move are termed as Impulse waves and the other three waves that are against the trend direction are termed as Corrective waves.

  • 5 Technical Tools for Cryptocurrency Price Swings
    5 Technical Tools for Cryptocurrency Price Swings Here are the tools: 1. Elliott Wave Analysis Elliott Wave is a special type of technical analysis that traders use to analyze and forecast market cycles and trends by identifying extreme price highs/lows, investor psychology and other such factors. The Elliott Wave Principle works on the premises that markets are influenced by collective investor psychology aka crowd psychology, which makes it move in natural sequences of optimism and pessimism. Elliott Wave lends itself well to cryptocurrency trading because there are no true fundamentals that are currently driving the crypto markets; rather investor sentiment is the main driver of prices. 2. Fibonacci Levels Fibonacci Levels is a popular tool that is based on the Fibonacci Sequence. It’s used to predict support/resistance levels for different types of assets. The most commonly used Fibonnacci levels are 38.2% and 61.8%, often rounded off to 38% and 62%. Fibonacci levels alert the trader to a possible trend reversal, support or resistance level. A bounce in a trend is usually expected to retrace at least part of the previous trend. Traders can use Fibonacci Retracement levels to identify possible bullish reversals during downtrends or possible bearish reversals during uptrends. 3. MACD or Moving Average Convergence/Divergence MACD or Moving Average Convergence/Divergence is a highly popular indicator with day traders. MACD is used to compare price movements between a short-term moving average and a long-term moving average. The 12-day exponential moving average (EMA) and the 26-Day EMA are typically used.

It uses theoretical bases of physics and of statistical physics for the explanation of economic phenomena, particularly financial phenomena. This work shows, through statistical physics, possible forms of chart analysis of a stock exchange index, through the practical application of Elliott’s Wave Theory to the movement of the Portuguese stock index, the PSI20. With the empirical application made to the PSI20, we emphasize the degree of reliability that the Elliott method has demonstrated when applied to large indexes, generating projection scenarios based on patterns of repetitive cyclic behaviour. It is possible, and for several moments, to identify the Elliott wave pattern, namely in the crisis period. Keywords: Econophysical, Technical Analysis, Elliott’s Wave Theory, Portuguese stock market.
