Sure, we can use on up or down trend. HH & HL (3>1) is uptrend, LH & LL (3<1) is downtrend. See the attached screen shoot here. It's short and hit TP already.
In my opinion, Zigzag some time lagging too...but I don't know for sure coz I don't use it. You may use Fractal to help you find the Higher High and Lower Low. Fractal formula is: Finding the highest or lowest among 5 candles. This is the indicator that can help better than another indicator. But my suggestion, try to use naked chart can help you read the chart clearly....of course, you need to learn and practice frequently.
Another importance formula for 123 is momentum. We should calculate the momentum of current wave.
For example:If wave AB has range 100 pips and it needs 5 candles/bars, wave CD has range 100 Pips and it needs 12 candles/bars....it's the sign that both waves has difference momentum, it signed that there are imbalance, sign of reversal will occur soon.
yes, thats very simple theory to follow do buy or sell in right direction and gain PIPs. we hope that the condition like that will run in our trading lot and gain PIPs as theory, but we know that there is a risk that keep follow our plan.
Read from the first page. I've explained already. I also give some sample of my live trade already.
There is no indicator on my chart....butter fly is not and indicator, It's chart pattern and I draw it my self.
We can discuss here together....just upload your picture here and we'll analyze together....
the elliot wave theory is quite complex and it takes only a professional to use and make money from it. this is not that simple, simple is using moving averages to make of and maybe bollinger bands.
Moving average and bollinger band is calculated old data, they use previous Open, High, Low and Close data. Bollinger band is based on Moving Average....read here about Moving Average
