Best Harmonic Patterns For Beginners


best harmonic patterns for beginners

In the today's article, I will share with you 4 best harmonic patterns for beginners. We will discuss the structure of each pattern and the rules.


Harmonic ABCD Pattern


harmonic abcd pattern structure

That pattern is based on 3 legs of a price movement:

AB leg - impulse leg,

BC leg - retracement with the range of XA leg,

CD leg - impulse leg that has the same direction, the same time horizon and the same length as the XA leg 


AB and BC legs should be equal or almost equal, that makes the pattern harmonic.


The completion point of the pattern - D point can be applied for predicting a pullback.


ABCD pattern can be bullish and bearish.


harmonic abcd pattern types

In a bullish ABCD pattern, AB leg is bearish.

D point of the pattern will be a safe point to buy from.


In a bearish ABCD pattern, AB leg is bullish.

D point will be a safe place to sell from. Learn My Harmonic ABCD trading strategy: https://www.vasilytrader.com/post/harmonic-patterns-trading-abcd-pattern


The next 3 patterns will be based on 4 legs of a move:

XA, AB, BC, CD and will have XABCD structure with the initial point of the pattern being X point.


D point will be a completion point of the pattern from where a pullback will be anticipated.

The type of the harmonic pattern will be identified with Fibonacci numbers. The exact placement of each point of the pattern will define the name of the pattern.


Harmonic Gartley Pattern

B point of the pattern should strictly be between 618 and 786 retracement of the XA leg.

C point should lie between 618 and 786 retracement of AB leg.

D point will be 1.272 extension of AB leg.

Bearish Gartley will be based on a bearish XA leg.


Harmonic Bat Pattern

D point will be 786 retracement of XC leg.


bullish and bearish cypher pattern

Bullish Cypher will be based on a bullish XA leg.

Bearish Cypher will be based on a bearish XA leg.


These patterns are phenomenally accurate and they are very simple to recognize.
