Structured Wolfe Wave setting up in DJIA


The Estimated Price at Arrival line implies a significant correction is coming over the next few weeks. If it lasts as long as the previous correction, it likely will drop to the 9000 level or lower.

Paul: I just started a topic: Chart Background Color after you mentioned the background color of your charts. I thought it would be interesting to hear what everyone else uses.

Possible Wolfe Wave Forming in ES 10/25/10


This is how I look for WWs as they are forming.

I clone what could be a 1-3 line and put it at what could be a 2 point (the red line). The 2-4 swing has to terminate before reaching that line or the 1-3 and 2-4 lines won't converge.

I draw a line from what might be the 1 point through the 'Balance Point' of what could be a 2-3 swing (pink line). The 4 point will frequently terminate near that line, so far it looks like a potential 2-4 swing has come to within 4 or 5 ticks of that 'Balance Line". If price now goes back up to the green 1-3 line, that would complete the WW.

Also, it looks like a smaller WW might be forming in the 3-4 swing (see if you can find it), if it does, this would be a Well Structured Wolfe Wave which is the form of WW most likely to succeed.
Update for the last chart.

It violated the 1-3 parallel so it is not a WW.

Wolfe Wave Failed to form. ES 3200 tick 10/26/10
Nice waves. Some times I'm able to see them, but my waves are some what "mutants" because they don't follow the rules as much. I will post some charts late eve.

BHReach. Thanks for taking the time to post your charts and comments.

You may refer to them as "mutants" but they may be a variation that works better than the original. I am looking forward to seeing them.
Here is my version of the Wolfe Wave. I called the Wolfee waves.
My rules are:

Bullish: # 2 higher than #1 - #4 lower than #2 - #3 lower or equal to #1 and #5 equal or lower than #3 as seeing in today's session, 1 minute chart below. - Reverse for bearish.

In the chart you see 2 Wolfees, the #6 in the second one, hits the 1180.33 Pivot and objective!

Notice the congruency with the Fibonacci 2.618 ext's and the pivot at 1180.33! It's like saying "come to papa".....
Some times I use the apex line to enter, and the initial protecting stop just below support or the #5 line, if it's close by. As seeing in the small wolfee that starts at 14:53. The apex line is very close to the low, making it a good place to enter.

Wolfee waves! ES 1 minute chart 10/2710
Here is my bearish Wolfee wave version from yesterday's session, 1 minute chart.
Notice that between #5 and #6 there is an Elliot wave count that ends right at the 1.618% Extension!

For bearish, my rules are: #2 lower than #1. #3 equal or higher than #1. #5 equal or higher than #3. #4 always higher than #2. #6 Objective.

ES 1 minute. Bearish Wolfee wave 102610
Hunter,
really glad to see that first chart you posted. I was going to post the same chart and ask if my lines were correct, but I got bogged down in other crap.

Thanks

and thank you, BHReach
I would not have traded the 1st one as a WW because the 1-3 and 2-4 lines diverge and will not cross in the future, also the 5 point did not come close to the 1-3 line.

I would have traded it as a Trader Vic 2B Double Bottom. The 2nd low was a couple of ticks below the 1st low, most likely just stop running.

The second one was a legitimate WW.
For the 2nd chart, that is a Well Structured WW. There is a small WW in the 2-3 price swing and it targets the 5 point of the larger WW.

WSWWs work most reliably.
If this is a #2 Bearish EW, it should start right about here. ES now trading at 1191.00 @ 13:22> If it is not then it should have void the EW. by 14:11
14:11 is a small time cycle, with 14:55 15:18, 15:48 and 16:03. I look for small highs and lows at support resistance on this times. Will see.

I have the WW but starts from the overnight. # 1, 08:30 @ 1191.25 H, # 4, 09:44 @ 1188.25. I think it is making a # 2 of a bearish EW If so then I will be looking at 1176 as the objective. Will see, it needs to finish #2 EW wave first. Will see, In due time will show us the way.

Bearish EW will be voided if price moves above today's high......
