The Characteristics of Corrective StructuresHi fellow traders, I would like to share with you all the characteristics of the most important structures when it comes to trading waves. When reading all the rules and guidelines of the Elliott Wave Principle it might be a little overwhelming and complicated for most traders. At least to me it was when I just started learning. For that reason I've tried to put it more in perspective by drawing all the patterns and making it more visual for everyone to understand. The notes are all included on the chart and I hope it helps you during your trading sessions.

Elliott Waves - How to Identify Ending Diagonal?Why is it critical to be able to identify Ending Diagonal waves - because normally their completion is followed by the reversal of trend and in some cases with explosive price movements. Above are the general rules for all the internal waves and for different variations of the pattern - Expanding and Contracting Ending Diagonals. Why is Ending Diagonal forming instead of Impulse When in wave 5 - usually it occurs at the end of a growth cycle like we are observing now when the risks of investment (in case of equities) are increasing, and energy of bulls is slowly getting overwhelmed by the strength of bears, and a rapid reversal happens with some trigger point - Covid in 2020 When in wave C of zig-zag - similar but in reverse, the energy of bears is weakening when forming a correction and bulls are taking over and a new growth cycle begins It is important to note though that with great potential gains for investors, Ending Diagonal can be confused in some cases with complex corrections so traders need to be careful and considering only those cases where there is a very clear structure of waves. Here are few examples from the real equities to see the different types of this extremely important wave structure. Booking Holdings - an Expanding Ending Diagonal has been forming since the crash of the great financial crisis and with the current poor fundamentals the upcoming correction may be very deep Tesla - just recently a lengthy Running Flat correction has completed with an Ending Diagonal in wave C (although it is still risky to assume this scenario given fundamental risks) Amazon - the historic high in July 2021 was completed by an Ending Diagonal and notice how deeply it has corrected since then And here are few examples where an Ending Diagonal is potentially developing: Berkshire Hathaway - waves 1 to 4 have been formed and we are awaiting the final zig-zag of wave 5 AMD - after forming historic high the price has been correcting with ABC pattern and potential Ending Diagonal in wave C HP - waves 1 to 4 of a global impulse have been formed and it is noticeable how choppy is the movement in the final wave 5 which is likely to be an Ending Diagonal MA - similar situation as in HP Thank you for reading my post. Also let me know if you would like to see other stocks, indices, Forex or Crypto analysed using Elliott Waves.

💨𝙀𝙒 𝙋𝙖𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙣: 𝙎𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙡𝙚 𝙕𝙞𝙜𝙯𝙖𝙜🌊●●● 𝙎𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙡𝙚 𝙕𝙞𝙜𝙯𝙖𝙜 (SZ or ZZ) ❗❗ 𝙍𝙪𝙡𝙚𝙨 ● A zigzag always subdivides into three waves. ● Wave A always subdivides into an impulse or leading diagonal . ● Wave C always subdivides into an impulse or ending diagonal . ● Wave B always subdivides into a zigzag, flat , triangle or combination thereof . ● Wave B never moves beyond the start of wave A . ● Wave B always ends within the price territory of wave A . ● Wave C almost always ends beyond the end of wave A . (failure to comply with this requirement is called «truncation» * * Guideline, but should be followed as a rule ❗ 𝙂𝙪𝙞𝙙𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙚𝙨 ● Wave C should not fail to reach the end of wave A by more than 10% of the length of wave A . ● In a zigzag, the length of wave C is usually equal to that of wave A , although it is not uncommonly 1.618 or .618 times the length of wave A (rarely 2.618 ) ● Wave B typically retraces 38 to 79 percent of wave A . ● If wave B is a contracting triangle, it will typically retrace 38 to 50 percent of wave A . ● If wave B is a running contracting triangle , it will typically retrace between 10 and 40 percent of wave A . ● If wave B is a zigzag, it will typically retrace 50 to 79 percent of wave A . ● In a zigzag, if wave A is a leading diagonal , then we would not expect to see an ending diagonal for wave C . ● A line connecting the ends of waves A and C is often parallel to a line connecting the end of wave B and the start of wave A . (Forecasting guideline: Wave C often ends upon reaching a line drawn from the end of wave A that is parallel to a line connecting the start of wave A and the end of wave B .)
