I
agree on the id of flats, although I have recently started looking for at least
a 38% RT in time if a mkt hits my price quickly but enough time has not passed I
at least start thinking "possible flat"

Lee,
Yes I look for divergence on the 5/17 for ABC
corrections. Flats or irregular corrections are a bit more difficult and
my comments are strictly for the zig-zag ABC's.
I have had little success, identifying a flat (or
an irregular correction) until the are well over and find one saying, "hey
that must have been a flat" :-)

oscillator and is there a difference in the divergence depending on the
corrective pattern (flat, ZZ, expanded flat). Also have you seen a pattern
of divergence in triangles.

realtraders@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxSubject: Re: [RT] SPX index
forecastChris,I am not sure I agree. I
have seen your manual counts at times and comparedthem 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 5/35oscillator to find the
wave 3 (as well as the 10/70 to measure extremeextensions and the 5/17
to measure internal counts) lays out a wholediffernet picture than you
may be seeing? From my use of over 7 years Icould not do
counts correctly without these, including ABC's looking
fordivergence. When to that you add the wave 4 channel's and we
are not takingthe same things (warns of expanded count change).
Just my two cents, butmaybe consider adding them and you may find you
are counting a verydifferent count :-)Stand on my
statement, if doing "correct counts" wave C's have 5 waves.don
