โ A flat always subdivides into three waves. โ Wave A is always a zigzag, flat or combination. โ Wave B is always a zigzag. โ Wave C is always an impulse or a ending diagonal.
โ Wave B always ends after the start of wave A. โ Wave C always ends past the end of wave A.

โ Wave B usually retraces 123.6 or 138.2% of wave A, less often โ 161.8%. โ Wave C is often equal to 161.8% of wave A, less often โ 261.8%. โ The most common type of flat.
โ Wave B always ends after the start of wave A. โ Wave C never goes beyond the end of wave A.

โ Within such a flat wave B should end well above the origin of wave A and that means wave C might reflect a 61.8% or even a 100% relationship to wave A. โ A running flat indicates that the forces in the direction of the larger trend at next higher degree are powerful. โ Wave B is usually no more than twice the length of wave A. โ Keep in mind that a running flat is rare.
โ Wave B never goes beyond beyond the start of wave A. โ Wave B always retraces at least 90 percent of wave A. โ Wave C always ends past the end of wave A.
