Lightbulb Understanding and Trading Elliott Waves - Proposed Schedule

Hi everybody,

YES, we are about to launch the long-expected Elliott Wave course soon! Before we start the course - as promised - I am attaching a proposal of schedule for the course, which I hope will serve as a starting point. Any suggestions or comments from your part are much appreciated, as always.

"Understanding and Trading Elliott Waves" is a beginner to advanced course which requires no prior knowledge of waves. It is structured in 2 modules, corresponding to what I would call the EW "theory" and "practice" respectively. My view on the issue is that a trader must first UNDERSTAND the mechanisms of the EW, the rules and guidelines, the types of waves, etc., however all this knowledge will only be useful if we apply it in real market conditions. That is why the first module will just prepare us to move on to what we REALLY care about: finding profitable setups and TRADING them successfully, with proper money management strategies applied

The analysis we will perform during the course will serve as educational examples only, and will NOT be directed towards actual live market situations (which is actually our main LTR focus). The course body of knowledge should serve as a basis for our LTR sessions and be a constant reference point whenever we are looking at a live setup.

I would like to thank you guys very much for the interest shown for this course, and hope to have as many of you as possible attending our upcoming classes. I see this as a great chance to turn you into EW fans, and I definitely want to give this my best shot! Together we will see if the EW theory really works in practice (I consider it my task to show you that it actually does), and once the course is finished we could start analyzing setups together on the forum and during our LTR sessions for the purpose of always improving our techniques, our MM strategy and our profits.

Will keep you updated via our "official" course forum thread (which is yet to be created ).Thanks, and hope to see you soon for some EW action!
