just re-drew and it seems ok, unless i’m doing something wrong.
i like that the B retracement is at the .786, but there is a pretty major previous low around 90.50 which will probably have a few stops under it, if taken out could let go another 20-30 pips.
Your setup looks fine to me modo, quit being such a pessimist all the time ;). I find it interesting that your setup on audus, and my setup on usdchf are aprox the same distance from hitting our targets currently.
Just a repost of the classic ABCD bearish pattern with a D of 1.48848 which may still be on the cards. Getting pretty close now and I’m thinking about giving it a go if it reaches the point.
That level also corresponds with the 0.236 Fib level of 1.48902 from the 1.70416 - 1.42256 decline which can be seen on the daily charts.
Possible bearish Gartley forming on NZD/USD 4 hour charts. Not sure if it’s been posted or not before but I don’t remember seeing it anyway. Convergence of about ~9 pips which is decent for the timeframe I think.
here is another indication that there might be something going on around the figure in the aussie.
not sure if i’ll take it on a friday, feel the cable might want to trade 1.50 and aussie up to .8770. if aussie does break this congestion area, could easily put on another 70 pips.
I have a question to any harmonice experts out there.
Does the B point have to be the first retracement for the pattern to be valid.
Take this gbpaud for example. The literature I’ve read recommends a .786 B retracement for butterfly patterns. Can I just choose the swing low/high that is made at that point (as below), or must that .786 retracement be the first high/low after the A point?
I’m a little late to the party… I’m trading harmonics as well, since the start of the year and loving them. Just bought a copy of the Pesavento book as well for some additional knowledge.
Looking forward to adding to the discussion, posting charts etc.
Like the look of this AB=CD pattern PipBandit! I don’t usually hold positions over the weekend so will keep an eye on it come Monday.
Pretty volatile out there today with news and risk, pushing gold up close to all-time-highs. Am comfortable taking this with ~ 1:2 RRR and other confirming factors:
178.6 extension of BC leg with convergence of prior Resistance
also an AB=CD pattern completion in price but not time (orange lines)
No it doesnt have to be the first. Sometimes its useful to find another B point to see if you can find convergence at the same D point for confirmation.
Was triggered just before 9am GMT today actually. Price went up 2 pips above the D before falling back a little over 40 pips. Nice when they work out. I haven’t being having much luck lately.
Would probably not have a go if price goes for a re-test later today or on Monday. I’m think that GBP/USD will push on higher.
