Named by Bill Wolfe; precision-focused.

Level by level

Beginner

Five narrowing swings down, a final undershoot, then a strong rally to a projected line.

Intermediate

Waves 1-3-5 and 2-4 converge; 5 briefly pierces the 1-3 trendline (the 'sweet zone').

Advanced

The EPA (estimated price at arrival) is the 1-4 line — a built-in target.

  • Stop-loss: Below point 5's undershoot.
  • Target: The 1-4 trendline (EPA).
