AMPmonitor TakeProfit levels

FYI: another change to the AMPmonitor platform ...

StopLoss and TakeProfit levels in AMPmonitor are only to demonstrate an idea about possibile levels and Reward:Risk. Traders use different approach to TP and SL and will use their levels anyway.

Since Gartley should be ideally first correction in new trend or for continuation "Gartley" should be any later correction within ongoing trend, the TakeProfits/SLs levels are to be corrected in AMPmonitor.

What AMPmonitor presents now is:

What we will change it to is:

In this specific case the pattern will become invalidated (as did not reach TP before reaching SL) instead of Running (successfully meeting TP level). It's more proper anyway.

If you have additional comments or ideas for AMPmonitor improvements feel free to post them here: AMPmonitor comments and improvements

harmonic pattern point D and pivot point

Knowing the location of nearest pivot points (daily, weekly, monthly) may help you in defining possible price behavior at point D. You may want in such cases skip the trade or extend the StopLoss.

See example from USDJPY where 121 bearish pattern failed, but price respected nicely the monthly pivot point.

Following examples present invalidated/failed patterns:

HINT: With experience person may trade failed harmonic patterns by reverting the position on the StopLoss price level or looking for even better entry in the opposite direction than suggested by the harmonic pattern. However, do not even think about this idea, till you master the book-like harmonic trading.

AMPmonitor forex harmonic patterns recognition

AMP indicator has functionality to present pattern in advance (so called emerging pattern). Emerging pattern is very useful. Allows trader to prepare for the trade, apply his/her own confirmation techniques and decide if it's worth to trade the pattern.

From Emerging pattern changes to Completed. This means all swings within the pattern meet the pattern criteria. This is the moment to execute the trade.

Completed pattern can move into Running or Invalidated status. Running means that pattern is on the way to reach the Take Profit level (TP1 and/or TP2 are 2 default TP levels defined in AMPindicator / AMPmonitor). Invalidated status means that price hit the Stop Loss level.
