John,

Quick question based on the details given in your explanation and your
comment re NDX soap/bubble Symwave:

Why does it matter if swings are measured from

- closing highs to closing lows?

Conceptually the waves measure % swings in both cases.

Reproducing relevant snippets of your emails below that confused me.

Thanks

Gitanshu

disregard most of what I said yesterday

on a point basis but as a market moves outside its trading range (as in this
case), then calculate magnitude declines on a Percentage basis to more
appropriately measure price movement and investor behavior.

c/ SymWave differs from the Elliott Wave theory in that it organizes
