Examples of How
the Modified Wave Structure Provides Superior Results
Having
covered the modifications in Chapter 3 together with the common wave relationships
in this chapter, the key now is to prove that these modifications produce
superior results. Having applied this approach for some years I have found it
to produce astounding success, and many of my subscribers comment on the
accuracy of my support and resistance levels. These are a direct reflection of
both the structure and ratios I employ.
First
let us take a look at the first example of a five-wave move (Figure 4.6).
This
was shown in Figure 3.3 that identified a rally in the five-minute market of
EURUSD.

Five-Wave Rally in the Five-Minute EURUSD market
The
levels of the major turning points have been labeled in this chart. Table 4.1
displays the wave relationships for each section of the rally.
Very
clearly the wave relationships of the major five waves have a maximum variance
of four points, and the (a)(b)(c) waves which form the five waves have a
maximum variance of just two points, with just one exception being the Wave (c)
of Wave (iii) which had a variance of six points.
This
type of corroboration between the impulsive waves and the individual (a)(b)(c)
waves of which they are formed together with the relationship of the entire
five-wave sequence is crucial and confirms the entire move. A traditional five-wave
development (or extended five-wave) in Elliott's original structure
would not hold relationships between the waves.
