An impulse consists of 5 internal waves. Wave 1 and 5 always have to be an impulse, or a diagonal (Leading for wave 1 – Ending for wave 5) Wave 3 always has to be an impulse. Wave 3 can never be the shortest wave It can be shorter than wave 1 or 5, but never the shortest Wave 2 cannot retrace more than 100% of wave 1 Wave 2 can be any corrective pattern Except a triangle Wave 4 can be any corrective pattern Wave 4 can never move beyond the end of wave 1 (Otherwise it is a diagonal) Guidelines:
Wave 1 is the least common wave to extend Wave 5 should end with momentum divergence (RSI is the simplest oscillator to spot this) Wave 5 can fail to go beyond the end of wave 3 This is called truncation, but it is not very common Truncation gives warning of underlying weakness or strength in the market Wave 3 usually has the greatest extension Occasionally two waves will extend Never will all three waves extend When wave 3 extends, wave 5 tends to equal wave 1 in length Waves 2 and 4 tend to create alternation between each other See last page for more details on alternation Wave 2 typically retraces to deeper levels of wave 1, than wave 4 does relative to wave 3 Wave 2 usually forms as a zigzag or double/triple zigzag Wave 4 usually forms as a triangle, double/triple threes, or flat Extended waves can contain exaggerated subdivisions within them Usually two of waves 1, 3 & 5 exhibit a Fibonacci ratio Channel lines and Fibonacci targets are inferior to the wave count In most cases, wave 3 has the highest volume If volume during the 5th wave is as high as the 3rd, an extended 5th wave is expected.
