So you're following Elliott waves as layed out by Andre Tiedje. There is also Glenn Neely and probably dozens of others who have defined their own interpretation of Elliott waves. And that's all fine, but obviously there are going to be different rules and guidelines floating around, depending on who's preferences you choose to follow. Claiming the rest is all false and stupid leads to a discussion between the different interpretations. Not sure if I want to go there. But, I may buy the book out of curiousity nonetheless.
