One of the outstanding features of RS CVn-type binaries is the changing shape of the so called “wave-like distortion” or “photometric wave” (PW) and its phase migration on the light curve (LC). Here we present a preliminary analysis of the observations of the following objects: CQ Aur, RU Cnc, VV Mon and SZ Psc. For each system we have derived the amplitude and phase of the PW maximum and its migration rate.
