Chapter 3 — How To Integrate <strong>Technical</strong> Indicators Into an Elliott Wave Forecast<br />

You Can Count Corrective Waves and<br />

Time Reversals<br />

MACD also helps to identify the end<br />

of corrective waves. In Figure 18 (Live<br />

Cattle), you can see a three-wave decline.<br />

If you examine MACD, you’ll see<br />

that although wave C pushed below the<br />

extreme of wave A in price, the MACD<br />

reading for wave C was above the wave<br />

A level.<br />

Figure 19 (Corn) illustrates another<br />

example. As you can see, the MACD<br />

reading for wave C is below that which<br />

occurred in wave A, creating a small but<br />

significant divergence. Since it can be<br />

difficult to see corrective waves while<br />

they’re happening, it helps to use MACD<br />

as a back up.<br />
