Inadequate concepts, imprecise wording and inexact conclusions !
Cycles is imprecise, confusing, distorted is imprecise .
Confusion between "component" cycles what you extract using your numerical analysis tool and " dominant cycles "(what you see on your screen, can measure relatively easily) and above all can trade) which is the sum of several "components".
Distortion / distorted is imprecise because you do not define distorted relatively to what ?
You write "cycle are asynchronous now" - cycles are asynchronous most of the time BECAUSE OF THE UNDERLYING TREND.
This explains why "Dominant Cycles" make their tops on the left or on the right and why the down leg of an Up Cycle is shorter than the Up leg (and conversely).
All Cyclic examples given in books or websites are most of the time given with a FLAT or NEUTRAL UNDERLYING TREND.
This is excellent to understand how "component cycles" works (Cycles summation, Nest of Lows, amplitude proportionality etc) but covers only partially real Price Action. For that you just have to look at charts.
Then when you write "distorted" it is just because you label a "cycle" making its top in the middle of its travel course as "normal" in spite of the fact that in real Price Action life, it is not the most common case.
