Our Methodology
Why we focus on swing trading and how Elliott Wave theory guides our analysis.
2-6 Week Time Horizon
We focus on swing trading with a 2-6 week time horizon. This timeframe offers the sweet spot between noise reduction and manageable exposure.
- Reduced noise — Longer than intraday, allowing clearer patterns
- Manageable exposure — Shorter than long-term investing, limiting risks
- Better risk/reward — Captures meaningful moves with defined stops
Why Not Intraday Trading?
Intraday trading requires constant monitoring and creates unnecessary stress:
- Constant monitoring — Full-time attention throughout market hours
- Higher noise — Random fluctuations trigger false signals
- More stress — Rapid decisions increase emotional trading
- Higher costs — More trades mean more commissions
Our swing trading approach allows thoughtful analysis and fits better with most traders lifestyles.
Elliott Wave Theory
Elliott Wave theory helps us understand market psychology through price patterns:
- Identify market phases — Recognize trending vs consolidation periods
- Find high-probability entries — Look for wave completions at key levels
- Set realistic targets — Use wave projections to estimate move endpoints
- Manage risk — Know where structures invalidate to place stops
Combined with AI analysis, this framework provides structure and context to our trading ideas.
Expected Win Distribution
Not every idea will hit all targets — this is normal and expected in trading:
The Key to Success
With proper risk management (1-2% per trade), a 60-70% win rate with good risk/reward ratios leads to consistent profitability.
Setting Realistic Expectations
We believe in transparency. Trading is challenging, and no system wins 100% of the time. Our goal is to provide:
High-quality analysis
Based on proven methodologies
Clear risk parameters
Know your exposure upfront
Honest track records
Showing winners and losers
