That's not a good thing.

All traders, regardless of market, should understand the basic principles of the Dow theory.

There is an excellent article on Dow theory in this site written by an absolutely brilliant trader and a man of men!

If you don't understand waves, you're bound to get sucked into the undertow....
let me. explain.. i never have read a trading book..good or bad..im better at tearing things apart and seeing what makes them tick. hands on ect. i suck at reading a manual. so maybe i do use some of those waves. but if i do i dont know. so please dont tell me. i dont want to know.. but of the waves i have seen here theres always tweaking.. after.. i try to be close to precise. many times it works.

being Italian I can tell you we never got along with the Greeks and if that happened you would see chaos. Actually the Greeks never got along with anyone but their own..oh and my Aunt Ann was Greek but acted more like a Italian so she was OK

greeks tank the euro lol really loud. to me some big boys wanted to have some good christmas and they did it very well. i ve read a couple of nonsense comments about the situation and i am surprised to see people believing that the so ( 'huge economy of europe as greece is') caused this 'mess'. with such easiness you point your finger. extreme opinions unfold here about that. i wonder what people with such opinions will say when another black sheep will be discovered soon. (how you thing you make your money here) thus a thanks here is ok for two months --- as for some voices from the north ( who they taking the discussion to another level ) the least to characterize them is as naive... but it is not the place to elaborate in detail nor the subject---mind what you feed your mind--- and happy pips

I can't say I agree. Knowledge is power. Even G.I. Joe would tell you that.

My experience: the more you know, the less you lose.

I'm not just yacking about waves, but about market concepts and trading concepts in general.

It's a gutsy theology.

But as long as there's a free market, you can trade it however you see fit.

having knowledge is one thing however it's of no use if you do not have the skills to apply it. A person that is gifted with application needs only a little knowledge to bring about solutions.
knowledge is only a tool

Your lines aren't evenly spaced. The bottom red line should be much lower to match the space between the top line and the middle line, fwiw. Your low should be more like 3485 not 3581.

I dont draw my lines evenly spaced like the book says. I have my own system and method of drawing lines, which have saved me from bad trades many times.

Many times market doesnt go exactly to the equally spaced lines, but goes pretty close to them. The way you know where to put the line is by the reaction that you can observe and the ending of the formations that happen at the lower time frames. I strongly disagree with drawing lines equally spaced.

To some extent equally spaced makes sense in about 45% of the situations, but in the rest you have to pay attention to the spikes, the formation, the retracements and the tenacity of the market when drawing your trendlines.

Best practice is to pay a lot of attention to the details in lower time frames and keep drawing lines and experimenting with them.

Best to keep in pair under wraps, so to speak.
