Understanding Elliott Wave Expanded Flat Pattern
Before we take a look at the real market example of Expanded Flat, let’s explain the pattern in a few words.
Elliott Wave Flat is a 3 wave corrective pattern which could often be seen in the market nowadays. Inner subdivision is labeled as A,B,C , with inner 3,3,5 structure. Waves A and B have forms of corrective structures like zigzag, flat, double three or triple three. Third wave C is always 5 waves structure, either motive impulse or ending diagonal pattern. It’s important to notice that in Irregular Flat Pattern wave B completes above the starting point of wave A. Wave C ends below the ending point of wave A . Wave C of Flat completes usually between 1.00 to 1.236 Fibonacci extension of A related to B, but sometimes it could go down to 1.618 fibs ext.

ADAUSD 4-Hour Elliott Wave Analysis (February 25, 2025)
Currently, Cardano is correcting from the 0.510 low. Elliott Wave analysis suggests the pull back is unfolding as an Irregular Flat Pattern. On lower time frames, we can see that the inner subdivisions of waves ((a)) and ((b)) show corrective sequences. Wave ((b)) has broken above the starting point of wave ((a)), while wave ((c)) has broken below the ending point of wave ((a)), which is characteristic of an Irregular Flat. At this stage, wave ((c)) still needs another wave up to complete its 5-wave structure. We recommend members avoid selling at this stage. Once the flat structure completes, we expect a further rally in ADAUSD.
