The powerful waves washing over the euro market

Right now, the euro/dollar market is displaying some powerful and exciting Elliott waves, says John C Burford. Played well, they could lead to some very rewarding trades.

As I write early this Monday morning, the charts of the EUR/USD are shouting a message loud and clear to me we are not only in one third Elliott wave, but we are also in several third waves of differing degrees (or time scales).

I shall lay out my case here, but if you need to brush up on how I use the basic principles of Elliott waves, just go to my recent video tutorial. There, you will see why I love third waves! They are usually relentless and sweep all before them.
