Ratios & Harmonics: a Different Way to Trade SPECIAL NOTE: Hello Traders, read the introduction below and then start on this post http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...95#post8722695 This will save you mountains of time going through the hundreds of pages. I am doing something special here. Thank you. Hello Traders, I’m Mr. Pip; I am a fulltime trader and trade ratios and harmonics. I’m starting this thread with the purpose of providing some insight on the topic of ratios and harmonic trading. I understand this is an advance method of trading but let’s not let that affect our ability to learn from this style of trading. I will not be providing you with any resume as to how long I’ve been trading nor will I be answering questions about my results, how many pips I make per week and all the other questions that follow suit. Let’s understand that my result will not be equal to yours and therefore are irrelevant to the purpose to this thread. Results have more to do with the trader then the system traded. You will either see value or you won’t. If you do great stick aroundand we can learn from each other. This is a never ending journey and learning should always be #1 on your priority list. This system is based on price action, ratios and harmonics. NO indictors will be added or used. Please do not post any as they are not part of this system. All traders and their ideas deserve the upmost respect and that is the only rule for now. As I mentioned I am a full time trader and my focus will be to my trading first. I will after my trading is finished for the day come here to post and answer questions. Please let me know if there is an interest in harmonics and ratios so I can continue on our journey. I welcome and call out all harmonics and ratio traders to participate and post. I wish everyone the very best in all your endeavors. Best Regards, Mr. Pip I would like to thank Kilian19 for the wonderful jester of maintaining a summery journal of my most important post. This is a wonderful reference for us all. Many thanks again!!! http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=403393 |
What is market harmonics? Is it possible that the marketsare not random? The answer is yes there is nothing random about this or any other market or instrument you wish to trade. Harmonics is the process of identifying the market’s rhythm or its pulse if you will and exploiting any and all opportunities. There are visual occurrences that have tendencies to repeat themselves over and over again. It is our job as chart technicians to identify them and trade them. The principles of harmonics and ratios have no boundaries. They can be applied to any instrument or timeframe. We will peel away the myth of the term “noise” and learn to focus on the only thing that matters on a chart, PRICE. Regard, Mr. Pip |
Looking forward to your input. Perhaps your harmonics are what I am considering as waves. Best wishes |
really looking forward to better understanding the lens through which you view the market. thanks for starting this thread. |

I am not in tune with wave theory. The whole thing opens up to subjectivity which is an aspect I have removed from my trading. We will discuss swings but the process has been simplified. I keep things simple because I believe it’s in our nature to complicate everything. I trade what I see not what I think. We will begin the process of identifying on a chart where decisions are made. We do not chase price around we wait for it to come to us. This adds to the value of the setup because it validates our analysis. PRZ (Price Reversal Zones) are magical places you will come to love. Regards, Mr. Pip. |
Can't wait to see what you have to show. ![]() |
I made this short video a while back for a group I was mentoring. It is a great foundation we can build on. View the video on Fibs and Harmonics. Regards, Mr. Pip Inserted Video |
Congrats on starting your thread. I hope it attracts a lot of interest. I had the exact same PRZ as you this am. There was lots of confluence at the 1.3250 area today. Best trade of the day. Very impressive how harmonics/ratios can project where PA has a high probability of reversing. I 've been following ratios and harmonics for a couple of weeks and this happens everyday! I look forward to following your thread . I'll contribute to the thread as best as I can. |
1 Attachment(s) I don’t expect you to understand this yet but I like to show chart examples. I just want you to see the confluence. When and if price gets to the PRZ the market will be overbought and there are simply too many obstacles for price to overcome. I will not confuse you with fancy supply and demand terminology and will keep things simple for the newer folks here. The expectation is for weakness to give way to strength. The bears will be waiting here for an opportunity to take price lower. The path of least resistance will likely prevail. Don’t focus on this pattern too much just want to show you a current example of confluence at a pattern completion point. We will get into patterns and harmonics later on. Regards, Mr. Pip |
