Wave Counting Principle
2nd wave should not exceed the beginning
of 1st
wave 3rd wave should not be the shortest
among 1st, 3rd and 5th wave
No overlapping between 4th and 2nd wave(with exception in diagonal triangle)
Rule of alteration 2nd and 4th waves takedifferent wave forms

3 Wave Forms in Impulse Wave (2)
Diagonal triangle Wave structure in upward or downward diagonal
triangle
In a form of contracting or expanding triangle
The sub-waves in the diagonal triangle take thestructure of 3-3-3-3-3
If diagonal triangle appears at the 1st wave, itwill take the structure of 5-3-5-3-5
The 2nd and the 4th sub-wave will overlap
