I would certainly agree on your statement:

 "As "simple" as an abc pattern might be you can get into a real can of
worms since Elliott patterns "work" on all degrees of scale. Is this an abc,
in a even larger ABC?"

Expansions are bitch are'nt they :-) but must be factored into the trading
strategy.

It may take more that one attempt and fading end of the C like you said can
be effective even if it expands (but profits need taken anticipating the
expansion with re-enter if it does not).  Try looking for the minor wave 2
of wave C for an entry, fade the target, and look for the minor 2 of the
next move in the opposite direction with stop at the end of C.  These tend
to be low risk trades.
