The guidelines of alternation in Elliott Wave would be indicating the 4th wave probabilities are a zig zag or a triangle when the 2nd wave was a flat like the classic flat in this wave 2. If I'm nuts, the risk is well defined as a wave 4 cannot enter the price area of wave 1 = Low Risk with Big Potential. .382 fib might be the area for the candlesticks to trigger an entry short.
Note
Looks like something else is afoot already. Maybe an extended 5th wave or possibly an expanded flat. The basic count is still valid and this may actually make the pattern a better trade as it will lower the entry @ .382 fib closer to the 4th wave of lessor degree. An answer awaits price action ~~~~~~~
