Elliott Correction Wave

The Elliott Correction Wave is a concept from Elliott Wave Theory used to identify corrective movements in the market, typically occurring after an impulsive wave. The correction wave patterns consist of three main waves labeled as A, B, and C and are characterized by their retracement of the previous trend. The platform provides tools to visualize these correction waves, helping traders identify potential reversal points and trend continuations.

Understanding Elliott Correction Waves

Elliott Correction Waves generally follow a 3-wave structure labeled A-B-C:

• Wave A: The first wave of the correction, typically moving against the direction of the previous trend.
• Wave B: A partial retracement wave that moves in the same direction as the original trend.
• Wave C: The final wave, which usually extends beyond the end of Wave A, completing the correction.

There are different types of correction waves, including Zigzag, Flat, and Triangle patterns.
