Try put all wave in channel u will find that the whole wave is contained inside the channel.... draw the channel and then make sure that the channel border are at base of wave 1 connected to to wave 2 and the other side of channel at the top of wave 1 ..... u see all waves contained inside the channel specially wave 3... this is the key... wave 3 is the strongest wave according to wave personality it should break the channel to show aggressive trend... once we notice that wave 3 is not breaking the channel we better count the wave as corrective pattern ......
