Elliot Wave Theory as mathematical theory about identifiable models determining behavior of society or financial markets was offered by Ralph Nelson Elliot in 30-s of 20th century. Elliot distinguished eight models that are regularly repeated. At present, one can say that results of Elliot's observations for market are “fractal”, but this term came later from theory oh chaos, although Elliot defined that theory by describing components of wave theory and their interrelation. The first book of Ralph Elliot “The Wave Principle” came off the press in 1938. Then in the beginning of 1939 Elliot write 12 articles by order of “Financial world” magazine and in 1946 year he united all his works in the final writings “Nature’s Law — The Secret of the Universe”, and this books becomes the best of his works.
Popular article: Rate of Change (ROC)
ROC indicator relates to anticipating figures, however, in terms of logic, if price factor is removed from calculation, the indicator stops operation and anticipation does not work as well. Still the point of anticipation is the following: when trend starts losing its force and slows down, the indicator's values begin pivoting, whereas price still can continue its movement along trend. In other words, as many other oscillators, ROC shows divergence and convergence. Of course, many things depend on parameters chosen by trader.
