Elliott wave theory is a complex and, to the uninitiated, seemingly arbitrary tool. But once you have a grasp of the basics, and used in conjunction with other technical analysis methods, it can prove very useful in forecasting market trends.
In this video, you will learn:
The key principles of Elliott wave theory;
What corrective waves are;
The significance of the ABC wave pattern;
How to apply it in practice to real-time trades.
