Automatic Resizing your Stop Loss and Take Profit Level with Harmonic Pattern Plus (Harmonic Pattern Scenario Planner)

Having understood all the concept behind the Pattern Completion Interval, you might observe that sometime price can react outside the pattern completion interval. Sure, there is nothing perfect in the world. As long as you understand the pros and cons of using large stop loss size, it is still fine to control your own stop loss size.

However, we still prefer to express stop loss size in terms of pattern completion interval range for convenience. For example, if the original stop loss size was equal to 1 x pattern completion interval, you can certainly use 1.5 x pattern completion interval or 2 x pattern completion interval.

Another consideration before you are using pattern completion interval, if you can enter the market at the competitive price, then you can feel less guilty when you increase your stop loss size because you are still remaining good rewards/Risk ratio. On the other hands, if you have entered market at not so competitive price, then you might be cautious when you increase your stop loss size.

The same feature applies to X3 Chart Pattern Scanner (Non Repainting and Non Lagging Harmonic Pattern and Elliott Wave pattern scanner.)

In addition, you can watch the YouTube Video titled feel what is the automated harmonic pattern indicator like. For your information, we provides two YouTube videos with title and links below.

Harmonic Pattern Detection Indicator

Trading Indicator is the realization of particular theory or trading strategy or trading ideas for real world trading. There is always gap between theory (i.e. ideas or strategy) and practice. This is the same for Harmonic Pattern trading too.

Hence, not all the harmonic pattern detection indicators are the same. The main variations of Harmonic pattern indicators can be categorized as following four types. Users should understand the pros and cons of each variation to maximize their trading performance with harmonic patterns.

Type 1: Non lagging (fast signal) but repainting

option to enter from turning point. Indicator does not show the failed pattern in chart and last pattern can repaint. This is almost considered as standard Harmonic Pattern Indicator. Even if they are repainting, harmonic pattern trader just accept it as it is. 99% of time, this is the harmonic pattern product you will get from the market whether they are free or paid one. You can trade live with this indicators but historical patterns can not be used to fine tune your strategy.

Type 2: Lagging (slow signal) but non repainting

no option to enter at turning point (i.e. early signal). This type of indicator turns harmonic pattern indicator as slow as moving average cross over. It might be not overly attractive option for your trading. Indicator does not show the failed pattern. Hence, you can not use historical patterns to tune your strategy but last pattern does not repaint. You can trade live with this indicators but historical patterns can not be used to fine tune your strategy. Probably about 1% of harmonic pattern indicator is this type.

Type 3: Detecting pattern at point C but repainting

option to enter at turning point. Indicator detect pattern too early and you have to wait quite bit of time until price move near the point D. In fact, price may not move near point D. You might just waste your time waiting for the pattern. Indicator does not show the failed pattern and last pattern can repaint. You can trade live with this indicators but historical patterns can not be used to fine tune your strategy. Probably about 1% of harmonic pattern indicator is this type.

Type 4: Non lagging (fast signal) and non repainting

option to enter from turning point. At the same time, the pattern is not repainting. This is hybrid of all above three system and can be considered as the most powerful harmonic pattern indicator. You can trade live with this indicators and you can also use historical patterns to fine tune your strategy. With this indicator, you are complying perfectly with the statement “Trade What you See”.

Excessive Momentum and Volume Spread Analysis

Excessive momentum could possibly point out some anomaly movement or anomaly momentum in the financial market. Excessive momentum can provide you good entry for your trading. During Excessive momentum, this balance is broken. It means that the continuation force was greater than reversal force since the trends was driving further beyond the defined range. Now probably you are starting to make some sense about excessive momentum. That is good. Your intuition will start to tell you that this excessive momentum is significant joint in the price movement where forces are conflicting.

Two potential scenarios can cause the occurrences of Excessive momentum. Firstly, the excessive momentum could be caused by some irrational price reaction like the late comers buying stocks after the stock have gone up too much. Secondly, the excessive momentum could be caused by strong belief of the crowd that the price will continue to go in the same direction. Whichever scenario is driving the excessive momentum, it is where we can observe the crowd psychology clearly. Hence, excessive momentum provides the great market timing before things are exploded. Whichever direction price would explode, you can get the first ticket to the ride the profit.

To make your understanding little bit easier with excessive momentum, I will explain trading concept in terms of volume spread analysis.

Excessive Momentum with Volume Spread Analysis Figure 2

Figure 1: Excessive momentum with highest price move above ZigZag peak.

Excessive Momentum with Volume Spread Analysis Figure 3

Figure 2: Excessive momentum with lowest price move below ZigZag trough.

To explain the associated trading strategy with Excessive momentum, it is best to point out the four-market phase concept by Richard D. Wickoff (1873-1934). His framework is widely known as the Volume Spread Analysis. His four-market phase description is the most interesting subject among many traders. It is one of the most intuitive explanation behind the market dynamics.

The four-market phase includes accumulation, mark up, distribution and mark down (Figure 4). Four-market phase is the systematic view of market cycle. Volume spread analysis further extends accumulation and distribution areas into sub phase A, B, C, D and E (Figure 6 and Figure 7). These sub phase zone looks like some sort of sideways market. To be honest, I do not use the sub phase A, B, C, D and E for my trading because identifying these phase can be subjective and it is difficult to achieve them in systematic manner. Our focus here is more on accumulation and distribution area, the pattern made up from supply and demand fluctuations.

I believe that accumulation and distribution area can serve as useful entries in our trading operation. One thing trader should know is that Wyckoff Price Cycle is schematic and conceptual. In real world, we can not expect accumulation and distribution to arrive in turn always. Be more realistic. Figure 4 is only schematic diagram. In real world, any stock price can go up, rest and can go up again for fundamental reason. Likewise, stock price can go down, rest and can go down further. We can not expect that accumulation will always arrive after distribution. In fact, we can have as many accumulations as possible after accumulation. We can also have as many distributions as possible after distribution. I have drawn more realistic view of accumulation and distribution to prevent newbie’s getting wrong picture on the market behaviour around accumulation and distribution area (Figure 5). The difference is in your trading direction. When we have accumulation area after accumulation area, we will have continuous buy trend. When we have distribution area after distribution area, then we will have continuous sell trend. When we have accumulation and distribution area in turn, then we will have reversal opportunity. We will trade at turning point.

Simply speaking, sideways market zone in Figure 6 and Figure 7 can always serve as the springboard for the previous trend as well as for the reversal point. In addition, we could assume that accumulation area is where demand is exceeding the supply. Hence, price will go up after accumulation area. The distribution area is where supply is excessing the demand. Hence, price will go down after the distribution area. It is undeniable that these accumulation and distribution areas are important because this is where we get strong fresh momentum to start new trend or reversal. Placing your entry around these areas will increase your odd to win in the financial market. When these areas are identified correctly, market is much more profitable for your trading.

Excessive Momentum with Volume Spread Analysis Figure 7

Figure 6: Sub phase A, B, C, D and E for Distribution Area (source from StockCharts.com).

Now if you are convinced how important these zones are, let us get back to the Excessive momentum. Excessive momentum can serve you as the systematic tool to detect these accumulation and distribution areas. Individual excessive momentum can be considered as an accumulation or distribution zone described in the four-phase market. You can consider the C point of Excessive momentum as either selling climax or buying climax. The difference is that some zone will provide you the reversal trading opportunity. Some other zone will provide you the continuation trading opportunity.

For example, in Figure 8, we can observe that excessive momentum detects the accumulation and distribution in turn. In this case, excessive momentum zone will provide you the reversal trading opportunity. You will trade against previous trend. Besides that, in Figure 9 and Figure 10, we can see continuation zone examples. In both case, excessive momentum detects the starting point of the fresh momentum of previous trend. In this case, our trading direction is the same as previous trend. Good news is that detection of excessive momentum is systematic using the trend filtered ZigZag indicator. Hence, detecting Wyckoff phase is no longer subjective but it is fully automatic now. Another added bonus is that excessive momentum produces two reliable breakout levels for your trading (Figure 10). The breakout levels are the point C and point D of excessive momentum zone. Beside your knowledge of accumulation and distribution area, these two breakout levels will provide you more solid evidence towards your trading direction. You can use these breakout levels for high probability trading setup.

Here is the summary for your potential volume spread trading setup with Excessive momentum zone. At the simplest trading setup, you can just use the two price levels at point C and point D in your breakout trading. This is easy and simple for any trader. However, this is rather short-sighted approach. Real benefit comes when you are able to identify accumulation and distribution area accurately with excessive momentum zone. With this long-sighted approach, you would try to make a big picture if the zone is continuous or reversal. With this knowledge, you can increase your odd win.

In conclusion, volume spread analysis setup with excessive momentum zone is not a rocket science although detection of excessive momentum requires the sophisticated algorithm. Your trading will start by identifying excessive momentum zone in the first place. Trading execution is a lot like the breakout trading throughout the zone at first. When you spot the direction of accumulation and distribution area correctly, you would be able to move your stop as the price move according to your prediction. Since it will detects these important zones automatically. Your trading will be much easier but more accurate.

Types of Harmonic Pattern Indicator and Scanner Explained

There are several types of Harmonic pattern indicators in history of Price Action and Pattern Trading. Not all the harmonic pattern indicators are the same. In the past the main variations of Harmonic pattern indicators can be categorized as following three different types.

Type 1: Non lagging (fast signal) but repainting – option to enter from turning point. Indicator does not show the failed pattern in chart and last pattern can repaint.
Type 2: Lagging (slow signal) but non repainting – no option to enter at turning point. Indicator does not show the failed pattern but last pattern does not repaint.
Type 3: Detecting pattern at point C but repainting – option to enter at turning point. Indicator detect pattern too early and you have to wait until the point D. Pattern may not achieve point D. Indicator does not show the failed pattern and last pattern can repaint.
Type 1. Non lagging (fast signal) but repainting

First type is non lagging but repainting harmonic indicators. This sort of Harmonic pattern indicator is the typical harmonic pattern indicators used by many traders. The advantage is that you do get the signal early as possible. You have an opportunity to trade from the turning point all the ways down to the continued trend. The disadvantage is that you are not able to test your strategy in chart because this type of harmonic pattern indicator does not show the entry of the failed patterns in chart but only successful one. In fact, Harmonic Pattern Plus and Harmonic Pattern Scenario Planner are under this category. They would provide the fastest signal but you will not able to test your strategy in your chart because they do not show the failed entry in chart.

Type 2. Lagging (slow signal) but non repainting

The second type is that lagging but non repainting. Some people use pretty words like minimal lag Harmonic pattern indicator or etc. But really lagging is just lagging. You can not make it really pretty though. As the literal meaning of lagging indicates, this type of harmonic pattern indicators provide you the lagging signal comparing to the first type. It will only provide you the signal after some times passed the turning point. Hence, you do not have an option to consider your entry from turning point. Depending on the pattern size, sometimes, the lagging can be only several bars but it can range up to several dozens of bars like 30 or 60 bars. Sometimes, your entry might be at the first reversal after the turning point. Hence you have be careful with this sort of entry. The advantage is that you will not experience repaint with the latest pattern though. I am not sure if non repainting property can offset the disadvantage of lagging signals because professional harmonic pattern traders are looking for the turning point entry.

Type 3. Detecting pattern at point C but repainting

The third type is that detecting pattern at C point completion not at D point completion. This type of Harmonic pattern indicator do exists. This type of Harmonic Pattern indicators detect patterns way too early at the point C. For this reason, you have to wait quite some time to trade at point D. If you are trade on higher time frame like H1 or H4 or D1, you might have to wait at least half days to several days. You might run out of your patience quickly with this type of Harmonic Pattern indicator by just waiting and waiting. Since, it is detecting pattern at point D, you are not able to see any failed entry in your chart either. So it does repaint. What is worse is that the pattern can be disappeared while you have been waiting some time. You are just wasting your time in this case.

Some people asked me if they can trade from point C to D. The answer is no because we only recommend to trade with patterns if we can study the outcome of the patterns. Since Harmonic patterns are the study of trading on point D not on the point C, it is not wise to use point C as your trading point.

By summarizing above three types of harmonic pattern indicator, we can draw some interesting conclusion. Non lagging means repainting and lagging means non repainting. There seems to be some balance between fast signal and repainting issues. It might be the universal or physical law.

4. Main problem of Harmonic Pattern Trading for starter

At the moment, the main problem of Harmonic pattern trading is that indicator or scanner does not show the failed patterns in chart because they are repainting (Type 1). In fact, no harmonic pattern indicator or scanner in Type 1 category show them anyway. Hence this is not the problem for you only but for the entire harmonic pattern trader ( also including Elliott Wave pattern trader too). Because Harmonic pattern indicators (Type 1, 2 and 3) show only successful patterns in chart, some people take them as true success rate. This look like success rate of 80% or 85% or something. This makes us difficult to estimate the true success rate of harmonic patterns.

There are many failed patterns and they are just not shown in chart. Then why harmonic pattern indicator or scanner do not show the failed patterns in chart? Is it because we want to hide the failed patterns in the intention to show some false information to trader? Answer is no and never. We are all honest people. Simply it was considered as being impossible technically to create such a pattern detection algorithm showing failed patterns in chart.

So the reason was simply because of the technological limitation. For example, we are still miles away from creating 100% hydrogen powered vehicles. This is simply because our technology is not mature enough to create such a car. This is nothing to do with moral integrity of car manufacturer, etc.

Experienced Harmonic pattern traders are just get used to use repainting Harmonic pattern indicators as in Type 1, because no such a tool showing failed historical pattern in chart anywhere. Then they just use their experience to fill the missing information about the failed patterns.

For starters, however this makes difficult to visually understand and test strategy with patterns from chart. They have to rely on external source to learn strategy. This is hard for starters and intermediate harmonic pattern traders. Sometimes, starters believe that harmonic pattern indicator provide the success rate that was counted from successful patterns only in chart like 90% or something as they do not know that harmonic pattern indicator (Type 1, 2 and 3) does not show failed patterns in chart. This should be not the right motivation to get involved with harmonic pattern trading. The right rationale to trade with harmonic pattern is that you have an option to trade from turning point, which provides you faster entry than other strategy.

Now the question, can we have non lagging and non repainting harmonic pattern indicator showing failed historical patterns in chart? This question means that can we push the technological limitation to overcome such a barrier ? The answer is yes. We have broken the critical technological barrier. Now you can have non repainting and non lagging harmonic pattern indicator giving you the true success rate in your chart.

This would be great guidance and trading resource on its own. Because you can easily learn how to use pattern together with other technical and fundamental tools, this would relieve strategy concern for all harmonic pattern trader. You have to remember that non repainting and non lagging harmonic pattern indicator is superior than above three pattern indicators (Type 1, 2 and 3). However, because non repainting and non lagging harmonic pattern indicator shows failed patterns in chart, you might get the opposite perception. Please don’t. Repainting or lagging harmonic pattern indicator (Type 1, 2 and 3) will have equally bad or even more number of failed patterns comparing to non repainting and non lagging one.

For your advantage, it is always better to work with the indicator giving you the realistic success rate for your trading. Then you will quickly learn how to improve your trading. In long run, non repainting and non lagging harmonic pattern indicator is definitely good one to stick with. You can add extra filter or other secondary confirmation. These efforts are real because you can measure the realistic outcome with non repainting and non lagging indicator. Remember that you can readily find out the true winning system with non repainting and non lagging harmonic pattern indicator whereas it is very hard for repainting or lagging indicators (Type 1, 2 and 3).

5. Can we have non lagging but non repainting Harmonic pattern Indicator?

The answer is yes. This is the next generation of Harmonic pattern indicator which was born from the intensive scientific research. We shipped the technology to X3 Chart Pattern Scanner.



This type of non repainting and non lagging indicator will provide you the fastest signal entry like first type of harmonic pattern indicator. At the same time, it will show you the failed entry in your chart. Hence you can build your strategy in your chart with other technical indicators at ease or even in backtesting mode. Since you trade as you see from chart, the confidence for your trading will increase dramatically. This is the true hybrid of all above three types of harmonic pattern indicators. With little bit of knowledge on Pattern Completion Interval, you could take the entry at your favored risk to rewards ratio. We also provide Potential Continuation Zone to perfect your harmonic pattern trading. You can watch the video below for more information.
