Hey, glad to hear you are a fan of Elliot Wave! I think mastering EW is the key to succeeding as a technical analyst. If you've been following the crypto market, maybe you've heard of my favorite EW trader, Philakone

His calls have been spooky accurate and has gained quite a following because of it. He just created a 16-hour online class covering TA and the basics of success for day / swing trading in crypto specifically, but EW can apply to all kinds of markets (just not great on individual stocks). The course is $200, and I did sign up for it, but in his case, I know he isn't a scam artist and has put out endless quality content on his youtube channel. I have made a lot more money using the tools he has given me, so I thought it was a good way to learn/reinforce my learning and show my support for him.

That being said, I'm three lessons deep and I haven't learned anything new that can't be found in his exiting youtube videos. However, they are all arranged in one place for you and explained in order, which may not hold true of his youtube videos.

Based on his recomendations I also follow Goldbug1 on trading view and Haejin Lee

I also recommed reading text books, I have read the EW bible: Elliott Wave Principle: A Key to Market Behavior by Frost and Prechter and I'm warping up reading Five Waves to Financial Freedom: Learn Elliott Wave Analysis by Ramakrishnan. The first is primarily the mechanics of EW and the second is more the application. Now, I've also started making a set of flash cards based on the important points in these books, on a program called Anki, which is used primarily by medical students. Once its a little more fleshed out, I'd be happy to share it.

As far as that goes, I would love to see a more active community here. Sharing ideas with a community and having them critiqued is essential to learning and being successful. I've been on a mission to post my TA when I see a good potential setup or do a more complex TA just to try to get this place a little more active. So, with that in mind, I'd recommend commenting, asking questions and even posting your TA here so we can learn together.

TTM squeeze is just one of a few setups I use and like any other indicator it works great except when it doesn't. John Carter makes it sound way too easy having a bunch of red dots telling you to get ready to buy in. Having said that when I do trade it, it can return 100%+ on option trades.

If you're going to look into it you'll need to use it as a confirmation for price action; make sure there's a trend happening and set your own price targets. The last trade squeeze I played was for FB just a few days before the daily breakout on 6-Sept. The stock had been trending up for months and was testing 126.50. It then broke up $4-5 and my options went from $2 to ~$5.

When backtesting I found it works well for FB, AAPL, NFLX but sucks with DIS, IBM. I experimented using it on TSLA 1min charts during the first hour of the day but have since let that one go coz TSLA is crazy.

But yeh I'm still playing around with it to get a better hit rate, mixing it with MACD, 8EMA etc. If you haven't already, read John Carter's book, Mastering The Trade:

It has a heap of great setups that I have since started using and seem to work pretty well, if you have an idea of what you're doing.
