01 · CYCLE
Elliott Wave
Read the cycle by rules first, then use guidelines and proportions to frame the higher-timeframe path.
OptionFlys Education
Learn the language of price.
A practical education library built around Elliott Wave cycles, Gann Swings, Relative Rotation Graphs, and the OptionFlys SwingRank process.
Education and research only.
The education framework
Tools do not replace judgment.
Every tool has one job. Elliott Wave defines the cycle. Gann defines the swing and structure. RRG identifies where institutional leadership is building or fading. SwingRank turns trend and swing into a clear decision framework.
02 · SWING & STRUCTURE
Gann Analysis
Use a 3-bar swing to define direction, structure, the retracement, and the invalidation.
03 · ROTATION
RRG
Show where institutional leadership is building—or fading.
04 · DECISION
SwingRank
Combine trend and swing direction into a fast, visual ranking system that keeps the process disciplined.
Elliott Wave principle
Rules first. Targets second.
A wave count is not valid because it looks attractive. The structure has rules that cannot be broken. Once the structure is valid, Fibonacci relationships help frame what may come next.
Three hard impulse rules
These are the first checks before any count earns attention.
01
Wave 2 cannot retrace beyond the start of Wave 1.
If it does, the impulse count is invalid.
02
Wave 3 can never be the shortest of Waves 1, 3, and 5.
It does not have to be the longest—but it cannot be the shortest.
03
Wave 4 cannot overlap Wave 1 in a standard impulse.
Diagonals are a separate structure with their own rules.
Fibonacci measurements
Fibonacci ratios are planning tools—not permission to force a count. Elliott Wave speaks in waves; Gann speaks in swings and structure.
Common relationships to monitor
Measure price and time from completed waves, then compare the next move to the completed structure.
Wave 2: 50% / 61.8%
Wave 3: 1.618× / 2.618×
Wave 4: 23.6% / 38.2%
Wave 5: equality / extensions
Gann analysis
Direction must be earned.
The OptionFlys process uses a 3-bar swing to keep direction clear and prevent noise from becoming a trade thesis.
1. Establish the active swing
Let the completed 3-bar structure identify whether the market is swinging up or down.
2. Map the retracement
Use the prior swing high or low to define where pullback structure must hold.
3. Wait for alignment
A swing direction is not an automatic trade. Rotation and signal still need to confirm the opportunity.
Relative Rotation Graphs
Find leadership before price makes it obvious.
RRG puts relative strength and relative momentum on the same map. It tells us where to look; structure and signal decide whether to act.
⌕
Leading
Strong relative strength and strong momentum. This is where institutional leadership is established.
Weakening
Relative strength remains strong, but momentum is fading. Protect gains and watch for rotation.
Lagging
Weak relative strength and weak momentum. This is out-of-focus territory until the structure improves.
Improving
Momentum is building from weakness. Watch for leadership to develop, then wait for structure and signal.
OptionFlys Powerful Ranking System
A powerful ranking system built on trend and swing.
SwingRank turns the relationship between trend and the 3-bar swing into an immediate visual read. It is a discipline tool: use color and structure together.
