How do you compare the trading success of 2 differnt sized accounts? If 2 traders both make 10k, one with a small account and the other with a much larger account who is the successful trader?

Good call and you made some money for a change. :fistbump:

The system is great until you need it. Waiting lists for procedures are long. I waited 10 months for lung test. Joint surgery or replacement is over a year. MTI's, CT scans, heart tests all require referals and wait lists. You wait for months for the refered Dr. to get back to you then get on a...

What happens if it becomes invalid? This is where I have a problem with EW is that price action can make waves invalid.

Why not post the same time frame?

I'd be interested in how you use EW. EW has recently piqued my interest but I'm finding it difficult to come up with a trading strategy. It seems that price has to move before you can determine the wave count.
