Elliot Waves
Method of technical analysis to forecast market trends.

Core of the theory is the assumption that investor psychology moves between optimism and pessimism in natural sequences. thus creating patterns. These patterns manifest themselves within a trend phase as five and three waves. Wave one, three and five are impulses with corrective waves two and four in between them.
