Trading the EUR/USD has not been easy lately. The exchange rate between the euro and the U.S. dollar (the most widely-traded currency pair) hasn't made much net progress, but it's made up for that in spades by choppy, volatile, sideways-moving market action. When the going gets tough, the tough get going, right? Before you say yes, read these thoughts...

It’s nothing new to compare today's Western Civilization to the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. Writers have observed the parallels for years, and for good reason: currency depreciation, the deterioration of morality, the character of government, and more.

At some point after learning the basics of the Elliott Wave Principle, you've probably said to yourself -- let's try and count some waves. The Principle claims to work in any liquid, freely traded market, so let's see if it really does. Here are a couple of hurdles you'll need to overcome first...

Close to ninety percent of all traders lose money. The remaining ten percent somehow manage to either break even or even turn a profit – and more importantly, do it consistently. How do they do that? While there is no magic formula, one of Elliott Wave International's senior instructors Jeffrey Kennedy has identified five fundamental flaws that, in his opinion, stop most traders from being consistently successful.

As long as you know how to type, few things are easier than entering an online trading order. What's difficult is winning on those trades. "Ease of trading" does not equal "ease of winning," yet inexperienced traders confuse the two all the time. Is it any wonder, then, that statistically only about 5% of futures traders make money over the long haul?

In Part I of this series, you learned about the basics of Elliott wave patterns. Part II introduced you to "alternate counts" and ways to identify the market position in the wave pattern. Part III talked about the Fibonacci sequence and the ratios within the sequence that guide the shape of Elliott waves. Part IV showed you how to use Elliott to establish investment strategy and reduce risk. This is the last article in the series, and it covers the ways you can take advantage of the Wave Principle in trading.

Novice traders (and investors) usually think that an accurate forecast is all they need to succeed in the markets. You read one, you open a trade, and then you close it. Buy low, sell high, wham-bam – you're rich. That happens only if you're really, really lucky. But let's consider a certain (very probable) trading scenario...

If you happen to be a proponent of the “random walk” theory, let’s – for now – leave alone the debate about “random” vs. “patterned" markets and focus instead on the benefits of accepting (if only for a minute) the idea that markets are indeed patterned. The benefits are numerous and obvious; the main has to be this...

The Elliott Wave Principle is a detailed description of how financial markets behave. The description reveals that mass psychology swings from pessimism to optimism and back in a natural sequence, creating specific Elliott wave patterns in price movements. Each pattern has implications regarding the position of the market within its overall progression, past, present and future. The purpose of Elliott Wave International’s market-oriented publications is to outline the progress of markets in terms of the Wave Principle and to educate interested parties in the successful application of the Wave Principle. While a course of conduct regarding investments can be formulated from such application of the Wave Principle, at no time will Elliott Wave International make specific recommendations for any specific person, and at no time may a reader, caller or viewer be justified in inferring that any such advice is intended. Investing carries risk of losses, and trading futures or options is especially risky because these instruments are highly leveraged, and traders can lose more than their initial margin funds. Information provided by Elliott Wave International is expressed in good faith, but it is not guaranteed. The market service that never makes mistakes does not exist. Long-term success trading or investing in the markets demands recognition of the fact that error and uncertainty are part of any effort to assess future probabilities. Please ask your broker or your advisor to explain all risks to you before making any trading and investing decisions.
