First let me preface by stating that I took Bill Wolfe's course,
was trained by him in the methodology, and have corresponded
with him regarding setups. I do not mean to rain on anyone's
parade, but many of the charts being offered here as Wolfe Waves
are the farthest thing from them. If the "Street Smarts" book, or
a knock-off website is your only exposure to this setup, then it is
very unlikely that you are trading Wolfe Waves properly. And over
the long haul, your results will bear this out.

Two trades triggered today. So far, both have survived the initial momentum surge.

I think we have alerted any posters that have posted charts that don't meet the requirements of the basic Wolfe wave structure. This is a thread for anyone, so stands to reason there will be a lot of confusion for anyone new to WWs

what about the previous wolfe wave here? Was it a good setup? The only problem is where do we enter? On the touch of 1.41 or 1.61? Or wait for tdi cross, wait for reversal bars confirmation?

So, in the interests of open discussion and education, what would you say are the problems with the Wolf Waves being shown here and the real deal? I'm sure everyone viewing this thread would be most interested in whatever constructive input you can provide.
Thanks

Conventional wisdom says wait for the TDI cross then put your stop above the original price spike. I do that sometimes, but usually I am entering as price hits my predetermined zone.

I am trying to get more bang for my buck out of the entry (closer to the ultimate spike). In this case price only advanced 11 pips past the AB=CD level, not bad for an hourly set up. Waiting for the TDI cross is fine, you'll just have to decide if you want your SL to be above the last printed candle or much higher above the original price spike, which in the is case over 20 pips.

Once you get more confidence in the structure and set up, you will start to get more comfortable with the entry. A lot depends on your risk management profile. Either way, its important to know what SL level is going to give your trade reasonable breathing room without exposing yourself to too much risk.

True. Right now, i am just using 1:1 for my wolfe wave entries. I found out that the EPA is not always accurate like the one audcad 1hour setup. It was good for when the AC trendline touches back but not until the EPA. Anyway, i'm satisfied if every setup can get the price go to AC or line 24.

In my opinion, you're using the wrong starting point for "X"

Refer to the chart below. A very nice set up with excellent symmetry. Trade would have been triggered with an 8 pip bounce down from entry. That is exactly what we are looking for. This gives us the option of moving the SL to BE for a free trade. Either nothing or 20-25 pips in the green. I like that option. Of course, you can always leave the initial SL in place and ride it out.

I don't use the EPA. I don't think many traders do.

On smaller time frames I am trying to get my TP at least back to level C. That will give me at least 2:1 RR. On higher time frames I tend to scale out along the way as the diagram shows in post #1.

Working a demo acct on this is a great way to see what works. You just have to be diligent in sticking to a risk management profile to make it a better simulation to real money trades. Of course, nothing can simulate the emotions of live trading

for my 1st attempt i decided to go out on C level +19.9, also forgot to draw the fibo which gives nice entry @1,168% as others mentioned already.
Have to work on set up, MM and RR but seems promising

this one always works great for me if you want to try, also add a trade level if someone is interesting.
