This excellent eBook will save time and deliver the knowledge you want.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s written by Elliott wave trader Jeffrey Kennedy: He had individuals like you in mind when he said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I began my career as a small trader, so I know firsthand how hard it can be to get simple explanations of methods that consistently work. In more than 15 years as an analyst since my early trading days, I&#8217;ve learned many lessons, and I don&#8217;t think that they should have to be learned the hard way.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>The Best of Trader&#8217;s Classroom<\/strong> offers 14<br \/>\ntrading insights that you can use.<\/p>\n<p>Consider these examples of what you&#8217;ll learn:<\/p>\n<p>&#8212; Use bar patterns to spot trading setups<\/p>\n<p>&#8212; Use the Wave Principle to set protective stops<\/p>\n<p>&#8212; Identify Fibonacci retracements<\/p>\n<p>&#8212; Apply Fibonacci ratios to real-world trading<\/p>\n<p>Jeffrey also discusses corrective patterns, including the triangle formation. Here&#8217;s an edited excerpt:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Triangles are probably the easiest corrective wave pattern to identify, because prices simply trade sideways during these periods. [The graphic below] shows the different shapes triangles can take.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Triangles offer an important piece of forecasting information &#8212; they only occur just prior to the final wave of a sequence. This is why triangles are strictly limited to the wave four, B or X positions. In other words, if you run into a triangle, you know the train is coming into the station.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.elliottwave.com\/affiliates\/images\/Fig1-42new.jpg\" width=\"515\" height=\"576\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Jeffrey goes on to provide three real-world examples of the triangle price pattern. Here&#8217;s one of them with his accompanying commentary.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.elliottwave.com\/images\/freeupdates\/image\/Feedercattletradersclassroom.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">[The chart above] shows a slight variation of a contracting triangle, called a running triangle. A running triangle occurs when wave B makes a new extreme beyond the origin of wave A. This type of corrective wave pattern occurs frequently in commodities.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<hr \/>\n<table class=\"body\" style=\"border: solid 5px #EAEAEA; padding: 10px;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.elliottwave.com\/r.asp?acn=9cp&amp;rcn=aa413&amp;dy=aa040914&amp;url=http:\/\/www.elliottwave.com\/club\/best-of-traders-classroom\/default.aspx?code=33997%26articleid=4538\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.elliottwave.com\/images\/club\/web_ads\/3186-SG-Best-TC.jpg\" width=\"125\" height=\"150\" border=\"0\" hspace=\"5\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Learn more about Jeffrey Kennedy&#8217;s 14 trading insights in <strong>The Best of Trader&#8217;s Classroom.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This chart-packed 45-page eBook is yours to access FREE after you join Club EWI.
