Elliott Wave expanded flat theory
Elliott Wave Flat is a 3 wave corrective pattern. Inner subdivision is labeled as A,B,C , with inner 3,3,5 structure. Waves A and B have forms of corrective structures like zigzag, flat, double three or triple three. Third wave C is always 5 waves structure, either motive impulse or ending diagonal pattern. It’s important to notice that in Irregular Flat Pattern wave B completes below the starting point of wave A. Wave C ends above the ending point of wave A . Wave C of Flat completes usually between 1.00 to 1.236 Fibonacci extension of A related to B, but sometimes it could go up to 1.618 fibs ext.

USDX Elliott Wave h4 chart 11.04.2023
Elliott wave view suggests cycle from the 107.34 peak is unfolding as Flat Pattern. We can notice that inner subdivisions of ((a)) and ((b)) black are having corrective sequences. . Wave ((c)) leg should ideally complete as 5 waves soon. Extreme zone, equal legs is already reached at 105.1 area. We expect to see short term bounce in (iv) and another leg down to complete 5 waves in ((c)) wave. We expect Dollar to complete cycle from the peak at 105.1-103.85 area as Flat Pattern. That zone should find buyers for a 3 waves bounce X red.
