had afractal nature. This means that the patterns not only repeatedwith time but that in a given period of time the characteristicwave pattern would repeat at different scales (days, hours,minutes).

The Elliot wave pattern can be divided in five constitutivewaves with the first of the waves called the impulsive wave. Thefractal nature if this waves was evident to Elliot when heobserved that in every impulsive wave, when observed at asmaller time scale he would find the characteristic five wavesof the pattern he had found and if he now looked at theimpulsive wave of the smaller impulsive waves in an even smallerscale he would find again five ways, etc.

Elliot waves are very important in Forex because he identifiedthe specific patterns that you can observe when trading thismarket and considering the repetitive nature of this patternsyou can make a pretty accurate forecast of what the markets willdo next. Giving you a huge advantage in your daily encounterswith the markets.
