SPX'S Elliot. What if , and only if, this is a Motive L.Diagonal

Diagonal Rules:

LD = Leading Diagonal, ED = Ending Diagonal

A Diagonal is a common 5 Wave Impulsive pattern labeled 1-2-3-4-5 that moves with the larger trend. Diagonals move within two channel lines drawn from Waves 1 to 3, and from Waves 2 to 4. A Diagonal must be contracting. There exist two types of Diagonals; Leading and Ending. They have a different internal structure and are seen in different positions within the larger degree pattern. Ending Diagonals are much more common than Leading Diagonals.
Wave 1 of a LD must be an Impulse or a LD.
Wave 1 of an ED must be a Zigzag family pattern.
Wave 2 may be any corrective pattern except a Triangle.
Wave 2 must be less than Wave 1 by price.
Wave 3 of a LD must be an Impulse.
Wave 3 of an ED must be a Zigzag family pattern.
Wave 3 must be greater than Wave 2 by price.
Wave 4 may be any corrective pattern.
Waves 2 and 4 must either overlap or be within 10% of length Wave 3 of doing so. All internal data points are considered.
The time taken by Wave 4 must be between 10% and 10 times the time taken by Wave 2.
Wave 5 of an ED must be a Zigzag family pattern.
Wave 5 of a LD must be an Impulse or ED.
If Wave 1 is a LD then Wave 5 cannot be an ED.
Wave 3 must not be shorter than both Waves 1 and 5.
Wave 5 must be at least 80% of Wave 4 by price.
Wave 5 is never the longest when compared with Wave 1 and Wave 3.
Wave 5 is always less than Wave 3 by price.
The intersection of the channel lines must be beyond the end of the pattern.
Diagonals must move within the two channel lines or be within 10% of gross movement.
Channel lines must converge, slope in the same direction and neither be horizontal.
The maximum number of pattern lengths into the future that the channel lines intersect is 4.
The minimum time for Wave 5 is 10% of Wave 4. The maximum time for Wave 5 is 5 times Wave 3.



Diagonal Guidelines:
Wave 1 of a LD is usually an Impulse, but in rare cases may be a LD.
Wave 2 is usually ZigZag family pattern.
Generally Wave 2 is greater than 35% of Wave 1's gross price movement.
Wave 4 is commonly a Zigzag.
It is rare that at least either Waves 2 or 4 of an ED is not a Zigzag family pattern.
Generally Wave 4 is greater than 35% of Wave 3's gross price movement.
The end points of Waves 1 and 4 generally overlap.
Expect the time taken by Wave 4 to be between 20% and 5 times Wave 2.
Wave 5 is usually greater than Wave 4 by price.
It is typical for Wave 5 of a LD to end before reaching the channel line.
It is typical for Wave 5 of an ED to exceed the channel line.
