Trading financial instruments entails a great degree of uncertainty and a variety of risks. EMW Interactive’s materials and market analysis are provided for educational purposes only. As such, their main purpose is to illustrate how the Elliott Wave Principle can be applied to predict movements in the financial markets. As a perfectly accurate method for technical analysis does not exist, the Elliott Wave Principle is also not flawless. As a result, the company does not take any responsibility for the potential losses our end-user might incur. Simply, any decision to trade or invest, based on the information from this website, is at your own risk.
