    This is a classic example of what I mean when I say "you can be wrong on the count and right on direction." As long as you have the direction right, you can make money.

    Good Luck.

    Yea. You have to start at a significant low or high. Counting from the low around 8077 depending on the feed the first move up is a or 1 depending on the subdivision. A 1 would subdivide into 5. I think the first move up counts best as a 3; a up, b down, c up. Then start over. Remember, corrections are 3 wave affairs. A and C in most cases are very nearly equal. Sometimes either A or C will be longer. Keep the fib ratios in mind when counting. If A is more than 50% of a move, then C will be equal or shorter. However, if A is short, C is likely to be longer unless you are in wave 4. 5-3-5 and 3-3-5 are corrective

    Motive waves are 5 wave affairs and always move in the direction of the trend.

    Good Luck.

    Hi aerocom,
    in my count on frame 15m , wave 'c' = 61.8 of wave 'a' . Wave 'c' failed to retrace at less 100 of wave 'a' and the move after wave 'c' is very strong so I called it's 'c wave failur'.
    this is my count of frame 15m

    Good Luck

    Here it is. Wave 1 look like it could be a 3. That would make the entire move for wave 1 a zig-zag and the follow on move will possibly be a zig-zag. The correction is in 3 waves and if wave 3 is extended, has retraced the extension.

    Hope this helps.

    Good Luck.

    Hey Greg, why is your A of the correction and the 5 of the downward move at the exact point? I would count the A at 1.2775, now we're heading for B, and c will be up again.
    I must say Im new to Ew but why goes your ABC correction in the same direction as the impulse wave?

    Thanks for help,
    greetings!
