Capital Market Chronicles – Episode 273: TECHNICAL ANALYSIS – HARMONIC PATTERNS (Part III)

 🌟 Capital Market Chronicles – Episode 273: TECHNICAL ANALYSIS – HARMONIC PATTERNS (Part III) 📐📊

Simple patterns teach the deepest lessons.” 📘📈


Before butterflies start flapping 🦋 and crabs begin crawling 🦀 all over your charts…

Let’s meet the basics.

Because in harmonics, simple doesn’t mean weak — it means reliable.

🔷 ABCD Pattern – The Foundation

The ABCD pattern is harmonic kindergarten 🎒
And yes — it still works frighteningly well.

Structure:

  • AB: Impulse move 🚀

  • BC: Retracement (the “is this over already?” phase 🤔)

  • CD: Projection similar to AB

📌 Key Idea:
👉 AB ≈ CD

That’s it.
No drama.
No overthinking.

What this pattern quietly teaches traders:

🧘 Patience — waiting for completion
⚖️ Symmetry — structure matters
📏 Discipline — close enough is not enough

Simple.
Elegant.
Completely unforgiving if you rush it 😅

🔶 Gartley Pattern – The Classic

The Gartley pattern is recognised by its clean “M” (bearish) or “W” (bullish) shape — and it’s been humbling traders since the 1930s 📉📈.

Structure:
X → A → B → C → D

Key Fibonacci relationships:

  • B ≈ 61.8% retracement of XA

  • D completes near the 78.6% retracement

Why traders keep coming back to the Gartley:

✔ Clear structure
✔ Well-defined reversal zone
✔ Excellent risk control (your stop-loss actually makes sense 🛑)

But a gentle reminder ☝️
A Gartley without correct ratios is just…
a nice-looking shape 😄📐

And markets don’t pay for artwork.

🧠 Final Thought

Master the ABCD and Gartley, and everything else starts to feel less intimidating.

Harmonics reward those who respect the basics —
and punish those who skip class 🧑‍🏫😅
