Bat Harmonic Pattern - Made Easy For Everyone !The BAT pattern gets its name from the bat-shaped end product. Identified by Scott Carney in 2001, the BAT pattern is made up of precise elements that identify PRZs. The bat harmonic pattern follows different Fibonacci ratios. One of the major ways to differentiate it from a Cypher pattern is the B point which, if it doesn’t go above the 50 percent Fibonacci retracement of the XA leg then it is a bat, otherwise it can turn into a cypher structure. The market strategy of the pattern is suitable for all time frames and all markets types. Traders have to keep in mind that on lower time frames using the bat pattern market strategy has some challenges because the pattern tends to appear on less frequent on lower time frames. How to Draw a Bat Pattern : As mentioned earlier, the bat harmonic pattern looks very similar to the Gartley pattern . It has four different legs marked as X-A, A-B, B-C, and C-D. X-A: In its bullish version, the first leg appears when the price sharply increases from point X to point A. This is the longest leg of the pattern. A-B: The A-B leg then sees the price switching direction and retracing 38.2 to 50 percent using the Fibonacci retracement of the distance covered by the X-A leg. Have it in mind that the A-B leg can never retrace beyond point X. But if it does, the pattern is considered invalid. As you can see, if the price with a spike reaches a point under 50% but with the body above, this will be Valid. The candle Body's important. B-C: Here, the price changes direction for a second time and moves back up, retracing anything from 38.2 to 88.6 percent of the distance covered by the A-B leg. If it retraces up above the high of point A, the pattern is considered invalid.As you can see, if the price with a spike reaches a point above 88.6% but with the body is below, this will be Valid. The candle Body's important. C-D: This is the last and most significant aspect of the pattern. As with the Gartley pattern , this is where the bat harmonic pattern ends and traders place their long (buy) trade at point D. ( PRZ Potential Reversal Zone ) The 88.6% percent retracement of the X-A leg is our Entry Point. D POINT or PRZ Before trying and trading the pattern, confirm from this checklist that the pattern is real. It should include these vital elements: A-B : 38.2 to 50% max percent using the Fibonacci retracement B-C : An 38.2 to 88.6% max percent Fibonacci retracement of the X-A leg C-D : The 88.6% percent retracement of the X-A Market strategy: Step 1: Drawing the pattern Begin by clicking on the XABCD pattern indicator that is found on the right-hand side toolbar of Tradingview Identify the beginning point X, which can be any swing high or low point on the chart. You should get 4 points or 4 swings high/low points that join and form the harmonic bat pattern strategy as explained Above Step 2: Trading the pattern The 88.6 percent Fibonacci ratio provides traders a more reliable risk/reward ratio which is why the market strategy of the bat pattern is such a very popular as a market strategy. The best entry point is the 88.6 percent Fibonacci retracement which is a very accurate market turning point. It is recommended that traders should enter as soon as they touch the 88.6 percent figure. Oftentimes the harmonic bat pattern strategy doesn’t go much above this level. Step 3: Placing a stop-loss Usually, traders should place their protective stop-loss lower than the point X of a harmonic bat pattern . That is the only logical location to hide the stop-loss because any break below will automatically invalidate the pattern.We use as manual the 113% Fibo of X-A as a picture below. Step 4: Take-profits There can be several ways to manage your trades, but the best target for this pattern should be to use a multiple-take profit formula. For this pattern strategy, take the first partial profit once you hit wave-B level and the remaining half wave-C. Once the price reaches the first target you should move the Stop Loss at BE ( breakeven - entry point ) or close the position in profit. By doing this you will accomplish two things: first, you’ll ensure that you accumulate profits and secondly, if the markets reverse, you ensure you’re stopped at BE and don’t lose any money. There are many ways to calculate the Take profits Target, this is one of the most used and we suggest starting in this way. Identical rules to draw and set parameters like stop loss and take profits are for the Bearish version. Nothing changed. Please note this is an introduction to the BAT pattern , for beginners. I tried to make it more easy and simple as I can.

GBPUSD ShortTime Frame: 4H Symbol: GBPUSD Entry: 1.13057 TP: 1.09444 SL: 1.15918 Bias: Short Current price pattern is in a tight range and the expectancy of the directional moves is mediocre. As we see the oscillations of price from support to resistance and resistance to support is dynamically drawn towards tighter ranges which may signify lack of interest from the prospective investors interests. However, we can project our trade plan as we have depicted in the pictures.

GBPUSD ShortTime Frame: 4H Symbol: GBPUSD Entry: 1.07962 TP: 1.05393 SL: 1.10451 Bias: Short The current price action that we see from this instrument is showing a selling bias. The macro and micro trends and their studies have shown that the pair has a deep inclination for trending downward if we consider the recent price context. Our studies of different time frames and different types of support and resistance studies also signify a major inclination towards selling side. That is why we have decided to choose our current set up.

GBPUSD ShortTime Frame: 4H Symbol: GBPUSD Entry: 1.08355 TP: 1.05201 SL: 1.10157 Bias: Short The strength of dollar is remarkable . The stand of dollar against all other currencies is already established as a major driver of price difference. If we consider the current price context, the dollar related pairs will drop significantly as opposed to the strength of dollar. The most critical bias factor for price patterns in different pairs is the strength or position of dollar itself.
