The Algorithm Patterns indicator is arguably the most complete harmonic price formation auto-recognition indicator for the MetaTrader Platform. It detects 19 different patterns, takes Fibonacci projections as seriously as you do, displays the Reversal Zones (RZ), and finds suitable stop-loss and take-profit levels.
- It detects 19 different harmonic price formations
- It plots primary, derived, and complementary Fibonacci projections
- It evaluates past price action and displays every past pattern
- The indicator analyzes its own quality and performance
- It includes a multi-symbol and multi-timeframe scanner
- It displays suitable stop-loss and take-profit levels
- It uses breakouts to signal the right trades
- It plots all the pattern ratios on the chart
- It implements email/sound/visual alerts
Inspired by Mr. Scott M. Carney’s book -Harmonic Trading Vol. 1-, this indicator has been designed to fulfill the needs of the most purist and exigent traders. However, it implements a twist to make it easier to trade: it waits for a breakout in the right direction before signaling the trade, making its signals very reliable.
- Fibonacci projections are vector-independent
- It implements email/sound/push alerts
- It plots the ABCD projection
Usage Tips
- The amplitude parameter controls the pattern size in bars
- Load the scanner indicator once to monitor many symbols and timeframes
- Patterns can expand but signal breakouts mostly do not: wait for signals
- Avoid trading if higher timeframes display a strong trend against your trade
- Use the suitable SL and TP levels shown by the indicator
Technical Information
- The indicator evaluates at bar closing only
- Patterns can expand, repaint and become other patterns, with different names
- Breakouts are mostly enough to reverse the market movement
- Set a higher breakout period to decrease the odds of the indicator repainting
- Stop-loss and take-profit levels are calculated using Fibonacci ratios
- The scanner loads blank, it never scans patterns to the past
- The scanner opens charts using your default chart template
