Painfully by hand. It starts with an equilateral triangle. Not a circle.

Slow sunday driving. Short the AUDUSD on Nadex. 1st entry is a binary. 2nd is a spread. Wolfe Wave pattern? rectangle marks the target area.

Worked out the EURUSD. 5 fib spirals. I need to dial in the time frame better and it should line up spot on. But this is pretty damn close, eh?

Inversions are always a major issue to deal with. But as I've mentioned in previous posts, you can look for them at about the 1/2 way point for a run. I trade market structure first and typically use the forecast as a heads up for turns. In the first screenie below I show the inverted forecast and what I'm looking at. In the second screenie I show I traded the forecast. On the left is my mt4 and the Nadex spreads I straddled. The arrow marks my entry based on lower highs/lows. I used the forecast to time my entry which was also at the floor/ceiling of the spreads. Market structure says look down. Forecast says possibly up. So I straddled. Avg. cost for both directions was $24 per. Max profit $1000 minus hedge cost of loser of $24 so a straddle with hedge is an awesome play. Looking good so far.

The yellow is the main forecast. Aqua is the same forecast but anchored back a few more days. Similar swings.

JR, do you still prefer using zig-zag lines as opposed to mirror image moving averages?

Also, are you willing to share the program used to create the moving averages?

I haven't done the mirror moving average thing in a long time. I'm not even sure I have a copy of the indicator anymore. That was 2-3 computer/HD failures ago. I'm not even sure it would work in the current MT4. A lot of the stuff I made stopped working a few versions ago.

EURUSD looking good. Didn't trade it, though because of unemployment news or whatever. Currently in a couple S&P spreads. The first is shorting the ceiling at 2100 and then a premium collection with a floor of 2100 that is currently at max profit. The S&P has filled it's total average range for the day so going to close these out.

Now 5 for 5 on the AUDUSD Iron Butterflies. This last one flirted with danger. Done for the night.

For the most part, Iron Butterflies are easy. Find support resistance, set orders to get in if price isn't anywhere near s/r. Depending on how wide the range is, you can sometimes get in on both wings at the same time. When they're wide, I try and leg in to get better prices. This last one the short side triggered at 70 and then I was able to get the long side at 30 right away albeit at a higher strike than I wanted. But with only 15 min. left til expiration, it was worth a shot.
