7 swings structure is one of the most common patterns in the theory of the New Elliott Wave & it is also mainly know as double three Elliott Wave pattern. Market finds that very often nowadays in many instruments in almost all time frames. It is a very reliable structure by which we can make a good analysis. And what is more important it gives us good entries with clearly defined levels invalidation and profit taking areas.
The image above shows what Elliott wave pattern Double Three looks like. Has (W), (X), labeling (Y) and 3,3,3 internal structures, which means that all these 3 legs are corrective sequences. Each (W), (X) and (Y) are made of three waves, which are having the structure W, X, Y in lesser degree as well. Elliott Wave principle is a form of technical analysis that traders use to analyze the cycles of financial markets. And market trends forecast by identifying extremes in investor psychology, high and low prices, and other collective factors. Important to Note that 3 waves could also be labeled ABC (5-3-5) structure as well. How are labeled 3 waves it depends on the internal price structure subdivisions waves i.e. whether the price action is corrective or motive.
