See the 4H structure chart in the cover and the figures in the main text. ETHUSDT at 00:00 on September 17 is reported as 2424.4. The main count gives an upward impulsive wave; the alternative is kept for an ABC adjustment. Both counts are laid out on the table at the same time.
Evidence first
Sample: 300 4H candlesticks; 52 swing points are identified. Engine: elliott r123 v2. Main count: impulse_5. Label: upward impulsive wave. R1 through R3: passed. Violations: empty. Score: 13. Confidence: medium. Wave lengths in order: w1 53.82, w2 26.94, w3 72.5, w4 35.96, w5 50.98. w3 is the longest among the three impulsive waves, satisfying R2. w4 is 35.96; it does not enter the w1 price range, satisfying R3. The candidate for the contracting triangle is: no; bias: slightly bullish. The current price is above the most recent swing high.
Alternative: corrective_abc labeled ABC adjustment. Score: 2. Violations: empty. Direction: not assigned. The rule basis comes from Frost and Prechter’s Elliott Wave Principle: R1–R3 are the three hard rules; Fib is used only as a guideline.
Fib guideline levels are listed as provided in the input: 0.0 = 1943.02, 0.236 = 1930.99, 0.382 = 1923.55, 0.5 = 1917.53, 0.618 = 1911.51, 0.786 = 1902.95, 1.0 = 1892.04, 1.272 = 1956.89, 1.618 = 1974.53. The structural level is 1911.51. These levels are only for structural observation and do not carry the role of hard rules.
The nearby swing points can be strung into a line. On September 11 at 12:00, the high of 2666.0 is printed on the same candlestick, and that candlestick also leaves a low of 2433.8. On September 12 at 12:00, the high is 2546.0. On September 14 at 20:00, the high is 2615.0. On September 15 at 16:00, the low is 2358.9. Earlier positions include August 21 at 20:00 high of 2546.8 and August 27 at 08:00 high of 2566.5. The current price of 2424.4 is standing above the nearby low at 2358.9.
How to read the chart
For the main count to remain valid, price first needs to hold the nearby low at 2358.9, then reclaim above 2546.0; only then would the continuation of the impulsive structure look convincing. If it breaks below 2358.9 and continues to weaken, the alternative ABC adjustment weight should be increased. There are more false breakouts on the 4H chart than on the daily chart, and the noise is higher too. This set of counts is only valid within the 4H timeframe and needs confirmation by looking at a higher timeframe. Wave counts are never unique: keep both the main count and the alternative at the same time, and use price action to eliminate one of them. “Confidence: medium” means both paths are worth watching.

Watch ETHUSDT. When price action rewrites the structure, I will re-label the main count and the alternative, and update the Fib guideline levels at the same time.
This content is based on a hard-rule validation of the impulsive wave on the 4H chart, swing-window scoring, and the Fib guideline levels. The alternative is kept as well; it does not constitute investment advice.
