| Date | Marat’s Label | Actual Price Action | Alternative Orthodox Count | |------|---------------|---------------------|-----------------------------| | Oct 2025 | Wave 3 of (3) up | Sharp rally | Wave C of a flat correction | | Nov 2025 | Wave 4 triangle | Sideways consolidation | Wave X of double-three | | Dec 2025 | Wave 5 up → new high | Shallow new high then reversal | B-wave of larger flat | | Jan 2026 | Top of major degree | 8% decline | Start of corrective Wave 2 | | Mar 2026 | Wave 2 pullback | 12% drop (overlaps Wave 1 start) | Invalid count – must re-label |

4.2.2 Misidentification of Corrective Patterns

During the April 2026 S&P 500 consolidation, Marat labeled a running flat as a Wave 4 triangle. The consequence: expecting a Wave 5 thrust that never came. Orthodox interpretation would have identified a flat (3-3-5), implying continued sideways movement rather than a breakout.
