EU completed W.3 down at 1.3137 so W.4 up now in progress which shouldn't exceed 1.3300 territory. W.2 was a simple 3 wave zig zag so W.4 should be a complexed pattern--- probably terminating in the area of 38.2% 1.3240 to 50% 1.3273 or 61.8% 1.3305. W.4 corrects the W.3, not the entire move down. Once the 5th wave down is completed we correct the entire 5 wave sequence. Important to use fibs accordingly.

my event drive trading just happen in recent weeks. as u said, fundi keep changing and less helpful. UK data unbelievable good, very less chance got wrong guesses.

my EW reading works well on intraday chart, but i still cant make solid reading on months long frame. so in long term i usually use fib but not EW, and use fundi predict direction.

The downside for awaiting major news events before entry is that you miss a large part (or all) of a wave move. The beauty of EWA is when your count is correct the move almost always precedes the news or the news further benefits your position---or the news coincides with your predicted wave ending--uncanny. The challenge is to get a highish proportion of the counts right.

I am not advocating jumping into a trade just before a news announcement but if we are talking about one to several days of price action I personally would not hold back to await a future news item. Also the market often reacts illogically to news events so traders who knock EWA should think about this--never underestimate how dumb the market is capable of being.

EWA provides very clear trading parameters within which it's easy to employ a disciplined trading methodology.

Not easy communicating in a forum which is watched by a wide variety of different traders using different timeframes and different methodologies. This forum has to be one of the least focused on the planet and the host man is almost never present. His premium service subscribers feel unable to post here for obvious reasons. Thus the forum does not work for paid subscribers but provides a social meeting place for miscellaneous traders who do not wish to get tied into anything specific :-)

Most the time the eurgbp is not a good pair to trade when we have so much other choice--imho. Ideally you need to be running currency strength charts to gauge the EG pair.
