Hi SuperMario,

But that does put the 181.86 potentially in play.

EJ possible retrace pattern 137. EU is strong today though so a tough one to take at the end of the week. {image}
This one is working but very slowly.

Nope on this one, UCAD wants bouncy bouncy and EU seems to be marching higher for some reason.

I'm guessing Scott may have already posted this many days ago but worth a look on the EU. {image}
11580 seems a long way away but possible on EU.

Ok, let's try this one. USDCAD, 1 hour chart. I have also the Elliott count that gives me 1.3108. No news expected today.... {image}

Hi SuperMario,

No worry, I liked that one with confluence. But if you look CAD did smaller barely valid bat and drop. Valid to me from smaller swing due to no close above.

Analyzing my mistakes today, probably I didn't properly apply the theory described in the books ("The Harmonic Trader" and "Harmonic Trading Vol.1").
I'm still a "newbie" with this method (I started to study it just a couple of months), and I still have to work and study, to improve it.

The best thing is that the only pattern violated took the stop loss, (GBPJPY 30 min Bat - small loss, it was a pending order). This morning, however, I made some good trades, with good profit. Regarding the two patterns on the CAD, I didn't trade them because they did not have reach the completion point. So the balance for today is good.

But I am not satisfied, I still don't like it.

I mean, I find the possible patterns, see the ratios, but I didn't consider the position of the patterns in the market (the context).
To make it work better, the patterns must be located in a specific point of the market. This argument is not well described in the books, or, at least, I have not got it right.

I am trying to improve the method for tomorrow. Let's see how it goes.

Hi SuperM
In my view its not necessary to know patterns exactly but importance to me is swing fibs.If you project 1.618 extension on H4 D swing and price hits that number expect a reaction likewise 618 retrace.
I use fib pivot for this for simplicity plus drawing manually on swings.Keep it simple.Following news that effect currencies can override any fibs like we have this week on China.To me its important to stay current up to date what's going on.
regards
In trading, you have to be defensive and aggressive at the same time

Thanks Davit,
you are right when you say "its not necessary to know patterns exactly". The target is to find the best area where to see a change of trend, also a few pips. Usually the patterns are good because with them you see an area where you can find 3, 4 or 5 Fibonacci ratios. So you can take a trade with high probability of success. The best is to find in the same area S/D levels, trendlines, etc etc.

About Fib Pivot this morning I saw your indicator, it look nice, but I have to understand how to "read" it on the market.

I also understand about the news, that can change the behavior of the market in a while.

My target is to improve the application of this method, decrease the mistakes, without losing time following a pattern that will be invalidate because is a wrong position in the market.

Thanks for your support

Thanks..it's working at moment.
On GU I didn't see patterns.
I've got nice entry on NZDUSD and EURUSD using Elliott patterns, I didn't find Harmonic patterns.....

On JPYUSD the Bat looks so good

I bought the USD on many pairs because I expect USDIndex becomes bullish.

I do not know if there's room to reach the completion point of the Bat on USDJPY.

Also this time it seems that the 0,786 level of XA is very strong in the Bat, it often happened to me, lately.
