Chapter 3 — How To Integrate <strong>Technical</strong> Indicators Into an Elliott Wave Forecast<br />

Figure 9 (Live Cattle) illustrates exactly what I<br />

want this indicator to do: alert me to the possibility<br />

of rejoining the trend. In Figure 10 (Soybeans), I<br />

highlight two instances where the Hook technique<br />

worked and two where it didn’t.<br />

But is it really fair to say that the signal didn’t<br />

work? Probably not, because a Hook should really<br />

just be a big red flag, saying that the larger trend<br />

may be ready to resume. It’s not a trading system<br />

that I blindly follow. All I’m looking for is a headsup<br />

that the larger trend is possibly resuming. From<br />

that point on, I am <strong>com</strong>fortable making my own<br />

trading decisions. If you use it simply as an alert<br />

mechanism, it does work 100% of the time.<br />
