hmm it all depends on which time frame you are using. i usually count the waves in conjunction with momentum oscillator such as the MACDs. for instance in my weekly chart, the background momentum is actually a monthly momentum, so the direction of travel is indeed upwards. usually i simply go with 1-3-5 up, 2-4 down and a simple ABC retrace after wave 5.
and B usually tops out at 62% of A while C at least at long as A. at the end of c wave there's usually a double triple bottom which sits just above the previous w1.
Been waiting for along time for this breakout since 6.5c broke out half cooked to 18c lol. Anyway since it worked out, to me it's w3-1 not a B top haha
