Degree & Phase teaches the method behind every call on the site: Elliott Wave for structure, Wyckoff for what large players are doing, and anchored VWAP for the levels they defend. Eleven free, illustrated lessons, built to be read in order or one at a time.
Start anywhere. They build in order.
Each lesson is a single idea, in plain language, with a diagram. Read straight through for the full method, or jump to the one you need.
Price moves in waves
Five steps in the trend's direction, three steps back: the one shape underneath every market, on every timeframe.
Read the lesson →Degrees & phases
Why it's called Degree & Phase: degree is the size of a wave (Elliott), phase is where you are in the cycle (Wyckoff).
Read the lesson →Wave personality
Each wave has a job and a mood. Wave 3 is where you press; Wave 5 is where you reach for the exit.
Read the lesson →The three rules
Three lines that can never break. They don't predict; they hand you the exact price where your count is wrong.
Read the lesson →Corrective patterns
Zigzags, flats, and triangles. Name the shape of a pullback and you know how deep it goes and where the trend resumes.
Read the lesson →Who's on the other side
Accumulation, distribution, and the springs and upthrusts that trap the crowd. Elliott gives the shape; Wyckoff gives the who.
Read the lesson →Where Wyckoff meets Elliott
The thing almost nobody teaches: which Elliott wave each Wyckoff phase sits at. A spring ends a correction; an upthrust ends a rally. The method's real edge.
Read the lesson →The line the crowd defends
Anchored VWAP is the break-even for everyone in the trade since a moment that mattered: where they defend, add, or bail.
Read the lesson →Fibonacci & confluence
The ratios that matter, and the real edge: a Fib level sitting on an AVWAP. One line is a maybe; two methods on one price is a trade.
Read the lesson →Putting it together
One tool is a guess. Three tools agreeing is a setup (with an entry, a stop, and targets). Or a reason to stay flat.
Read the lesson →Cheat sheet & glossary
Every term in one place, plus how to read the wave labels, colors, and levels on our charts. Bookmark it.
Read the lesson →The gamma overlay
Beyond the core method: dealer gamma. Why price pins near big option strikes, and accelerates once it breaks the gamma-flip level.

Short answers to the questions readers ask most. Each one is covered in full in the lessons above.
What is Elliott Wave analysis?
Elliott Wave reads a market as a repeating five-step move in the direction of the trend, then a three-step move against it. Counting those steps places price in its cycle and, more usefully, marks the exact level where the count is wrong.
What does "Degree & Phase" mean?
Degree is the size of a wave in Elliott Wave: the same five-three shape nests from a five-minute chart to a fifty-year one. Phase is where you sit in the market cycle in Wyckoff terms: accumulation, markup, distribution, markdown. Together they place any move in both size and time.
Do I need to know Wyckoff and anchored VWAP too?
No. Start with waves. The method layers three tools: Elliott Wave for structure, Wyckoff for what large players are doing, and anchored VWAP for the price levels they defend. Each lesson is one idea, and they build in order.
Is the education free?
Yes. All eleven lessons and the weekly Nasdaq read stay free. Membership later covers the trade setups and the monthly Higher Degree macro outlook; the education never gets paywalled.
How does a wave count get invalidated?
Elliott Wave has three rules that can never break. The moment price crosses one, the count is dead. That gives every read a built-in line where you stop arguing and step aside, before a wrong idea becomes a large loss.
Is any of this investment advice?
No. Everything here is structural analysis for educational purposes only. Elliott Wave reads are probabilistic and can be wrong; every read carries the price that proves it wrong, and you are responsible for your own decisions.
The lessons stay free. Forever.
This section is the whole method, in the open. The weekly Nasdaq read is free too. Setups and the market view are where membership comes in later, but the education never gets paywalled.
New lessons land as they publish. No spam.
