Key Lessons
[10:48] The most important thing was that he made money consistently and I was able to map that in my brain and really understand how to do it.
[20:08] I could’ve figured it out by myself, but it was much easier to work with a mentor.
[20:22] It’s just so much easier when you learn from an expert and then you can go back and do it yourself.
[27:29] Elliott Wave is just a question of understanding if we’re in a trend market or a sideways market.
[27:35] If we are in a trend market then the trends move very quickly and you have to jump on board and that’s where we gonna make the most money.
[28:15] You have to have a good sense of what the market cycles are.
[28:32] You don’t need to understand what the wave count is, I don’t need to understand that because I can take the wave internal setup and see what the basic wave count is.
[33:01] Talking about Pips doesn’t really mean anything.
[41:50] The markets are fractal and what that means is the patterns repeat themselves over and over again no matter what the timeframe, no matter what the market.
[43:45] You don’t find a lot of noise if you look at the pure Elliott Wave patterns on the one minute [timeframe].
