A Table of Degree Labels and Names
The table in Figure 5.7 shows how we label charts to show the fractal properties of waves. The corrective patterns that need a connector in more complex and time-consuming counter-trend moves will use ‘x’, ‘y’, and ‘z’. We have not covered these. You will not need to be concerned with these until the more advanced level. Since the labels D and E are only used in triangles they have been referenced as a note only. But when they are needed they must adhere to the correct degree notation as the ‘A’, ‘B’, and ‘C’ waves within their developing pattern.
