● A diagonal always subdivides into five waves. ● Wave 2 never goes beyond the start of wave 1. ● Wave 3 always goes beyond the end of wave 1. ● Wave 4 never moves beyond the end of wave 2. ● Wave 4 always ends within the price territory of wave 1 (overlap). ● An ending diagonal always appears as wave 5 of an impulse or wave C of a zigzag or flat. ● A leading diagonal always appears as wave 1 of an impulse or wave A of a zigzag. ● Waves 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 of an ending diagonal, and waves 2 and 4 of a leading diagonal, always subdivide into zigzags. ● In a leading diagonal, wave 5 always ends beyond the end of wave 3.

● Waves 1, 3 and 5 of a leading diagonal usually subdivide into zigzags but sometimes appear to be impulses (all zigzags or all impulses). ● Within an impulse, if wave 1 is a diagonal, wave 3 is likely to be extended. ● Within an impulse, wave 5 is unlikely to be a diagonal if wave 3 is not extended. ● A leading diagonal in the wave one position is typically followed by a zigzag retracement of 78.6%.

● In the contracting variety, wave 3 is always shorter than wave 1, wave 4 is always shorter than wave 2, and wave 5 is always shorter than wave 3. ● Going forward in time, a line connecting the ends of waves 2 and 4 converges towards with the line connecting the ends of waves 1 and 3.

● In the contracting variety, wave 5 usually ends beyond the end of wave 3. (Failure to do so is called a truncation.) ● In the contracting variety, wave 5 usually ends at or slightly beyond a line that connects the ends of waves 1 and 3. (Ending beyond that line is called a throw-over. ● In the contracting variety, wave 3 may be equal .618 to .786 the length of wave 1, and wave 5 may be equal .618 to .786 the length of wave 3.

● In the expanding variety, wave 3 is always longer than wave 1, wave 4 is always longer than wave 2, and wave 5 is always longer than wave 3. ● Going forward in time, a line connecting the ends of waves 2 and 4 diverges from with the line connecting the ends of waves 1 and 3. ● Wave 5 always goes beyond the end of wave 3.

● Waves 2 and 4 each usually retrace .66 to .81 of the preceding wave. ● In the expanding variety, wave 3 may be equal to 1.618 the length of wave 1, and wave 5 may be equal to 1.618 the length of wave 3. ● In the expanding variety, wave 5 usually ends slightly before reaching a line that connects the ends of waves 1 and 3.
