What Are Harmonic Patterns?
Harmonic patterns are five-point price patterns, X, A, B, C and D, defined by Fibonacci ratios between their legs, such as the Gartley and the Bat.
Explained
Each pattern has its own ratios: in the Gartley, for example, point D sits at 78.6% of the XA leg. Point D is the possible reversal zone, and an entry there needs confirmation and a clear stop beyond the pattern.
Example
Example with made-up numbers for a bullish GartleyX at 100 and A at 200, so the expected point D is at 200 − 0.786 × 100 = 121.4.
