Suri's discussion really got me more interested in formalizing some of these patterns which I have traded using rather different rules - still effective.

 

I am going to concentrate on 2 of then for now ... as I currently have AutoTraded Strategies trading breakouts and breakdowns; I don't need to do those on a discretionary basis.

 

I like the 2B and the A-B-C patterns... but I find the 610 tick chart a little quick for my liking so I am increasing the frequency a bit.

 

For A-B-C pattern recognition, put a PIVOT HIGH and PIVOT LOW showme with strength of 5 on the chart and get the pivots marked for you. Have the FIB tool ready... take the trade... hold for 100% for target 1 and try for 127% for target 2.

 

Once a TOP or BOTTOM is evident and you perhaps have managed to capture it using the 2B method, then trade in the trend direction for the A-B-C's

 

Good luck.
