Chris,
I am not sure I agree. I have seen your manual counts at times and compared
them to ones I have running on a similar chart and they are not the same.
Although not pure Elliott I think AGET's use of primarily the 5/35
oscillator to find the wave 3 (as well as the 10/70 to measure extreme
extensions and the 5/17 to measure internal counts) lays out a whole
differnet picture than you may be seeing? From my use of over 7 years I
could not do counts correctly without these, including ABC's looking for
divergence. When to that you add the wave 4 channel's and we are not taking
the same things (warns of expanded count change). Just my two cents, but
maybe consider adding them and you may find you are counting a very
different count :-)
Stand on my statement, if doing "correct counts" wave C's have 5 waves.
