It depends mostly on the weapon. Also there are many types of parries that are possible and there are many different directions that you can parry. But the most common is the opposition parry. In epee a 4 opposition is done by moving your Fencing hand across and up of your body so that by the time you finish your hand should be at shoulder level on the opposite side of your body.
