Elliott Wave 2026: Should We Redesign the Classic Templates for Modern Charts?

[Яременко]

Honestly, do the classic EW rules still hold up with all the algo shenanigans and current volatility? The standard fractals feel totally outdated for how markets move now. Think we need to update the templates for 2026 or am I just coping?

I've been using the classic templates for years, but to be honest I find it a bit dated, especially with modern charting libraries and APIs available. Redesigning the templates to work with these new frameworks could make a huge difference, especially for newer users who might find the classic templates overwhelming. Has anyone taken a stab at modernizing these templates yet?

I'm all for updating the classic EW templates to better suit modern charting software, but we gotta make sure we're not alienating the older users who are still using the same tools they've used for years. Maybe we can create a hybrid template that caters to both the old and new schools, that way nobody gets left behind.

I think it's time we rethink the classic Elliot Wave templates to better suit modern charts and the vast amount of data we have at our disposal. Maybe we can integrate machine learning to identify patterns and correlations that classic templates miss. Has anyone played around with Python libraries like Plotly or Matplotlib for this?

I've been using the built-in EW indicators on some newer exchanges and I gotta say, the wave patterns are getting more complex as the market moves away from the classic trend. I think a modern redesign could definitely help with visualizing those nuances, but we should also keep the classic templates for nostalgic value and compatibility with older systems. Maybe a dual-template system would be a good compromise?

I've been using the classic EW templates for years and while they still work, I think it's time to update them for crypto charts which can be super volatile. Maybe we can add some custom indicators to help with wave counting, like a built-in momentum oscillator. Would love to see some examples of modernized templates in this thread.

Honestly, price action is fractal so the psychology hasn't changed, but crypto volatility makes textbook counts a nightmare. You just need to widen your timeframes because trying to count waves on a 1-minute shitcoin chart is asking for a headache.
