Methodology

Elliott Wave theory describes price movement as a repeating sequence of impulse and corrective waves. The structure unfolds in predictable patterns, even if individual outcomes never are.

The five-wave impulse

• Wave 1 The first move in the direction of the larger trend. Often missed, usually doubted.
• Wave 2 A corrective pullback that retraces a portion of Wave 1 — but never the full move.
• Wave 3 Typically the longest and strongest. Where conviction builds and the trend becomes visible to the broader market.
• Wave 4 A second correction, generally shallower and more sideways than Wave 2.
• Wave 5 The final push. Often accompanied by enthusiasm, sometimes by exhaustion.

The three-wave correction

What follows the five-wave impulse is a corrective phase, generally moving in three waves labeled A, B, and C. These corrections are where most participants get caught wrong-footed.

The framework is a lens, not a prediction. Markets do not owe anyone a textbook count.
