Bearish Bat Pattern 15m Short

Euro Fx/U.S. DollarFXCM

Description

The Bat Pattern , is a precise harmonic pattern discovered by Scott Carney in 2001

The pattern incorporates the 0.886XA retracement, as the defining element in the Potential Reversal Zone (PRZ).

The B point retracement must be less than a 0.618, preferably a 0.50 or 0.382 of the XA leg. The Bat utilizes a minimum 1.618BC projection.

In addition, the AB=CD pattern within the Bat pattern is extended and usually requires a 1.27 AB=CD calculation. It is an incredibly accurate pattern and requires a smaller stop loss than most patterns.


Due to the Hectic day on EU I am publishing this Pattern very late, the importance of this pattern is that I used it to enter the larger Butterfly pattern with a much smaller stop.

The Bat like the Gartley is a continuation pattern that will, upon completion, follow the trend.

The pattern has already hit all three TP's and I would expect the trade to continue further in line with the Butterfly pattern targets.

I've read your post about bearish butterfly which the TP 3 is roughly around 1.81xxx

Before that pattern, this bearish bat pattern has been completed, so the next thing is hoping that the bearish butterfly pattern(your previous post ) to create complete?

@Datuk_Seri_Ron_95,

The Standard TP1, 2 and 3 for most patterns is the 38.2%, 61.8% and 127.2% of the AD leg respectively.

In the Published idea you will see these measurements on the chart as the green dashed lines with their corresponding percentages.

I do however personally use another method of taking profit where I close 50% of my position at 2R, 4R and finally 8R.

Hope this answered your question.
