Potential Reversal Zone (PRZ)

• Convergence of Fibonacci Ratios


• High Probability Reversal Zone
• Smaller the range, better it is.
• If price does not reverses from PRZ, it indicates
that the predominant trend is quite strong.
Rules for Trading Harmonic Pattern
• If PRZ is more than 2% and 5% on daily and weekly chart
respectively; then wait for reversal sign from candlestick
pattern.
• Keep the Stop-loss of 1.50% of stock value from extreme
point of PRZ for pattern on daily or lower time frame.
• Stop-loss would be 5% for pattern formed in weekly and
monthly chart.
• Keep the minimum target of 50% - 61.80% of last leg (CD)
and then trail.
• Avoid trade if any Gap or price pattern breakout happens
around PRZ.
• Avoid if extreme price move is there around PRZ as it
indicates a strong trend.

• Doji – Gravestone/Dragonfly
• Hammer
• Shooting Star
• Bullish & Bearish Engulfing
• Bullish & Bearish Harami
• Dark Cloud Cover

AB = CD PATTERN
AB=CD Pattern

• Four point structure


• Initial price segment is partially retraced and
followed by equidistant move
• In the AB=CD, the C point will be a defining
level for the completion of the pattern.
• BC projection is most critical.
• 100% extension of AB from C point provides
the PRZ.
Retracements used in AB=CD Pattern
If C point is ___ of AB move Then, D point must be ___ BC move
