Bat Pattern


The bat pattern is a 5-point correction structure developed by Scott Carney in 2001. This template has specific Fibonacci measurements for each point in its structure.
 It's important to note that D is not a point, but an area in which the price trend is likely to be reversed (PRZ). PRZ containing 3 coordinate levels of convergence:

  1.  0.886 Modification from base XA,
  2.  Stretch CD = N * AB, usually 1.27 AB = CD And 
  3. The Stop Loss forecast is BC to 1.618.

The point B from the initial XA base should be less than 0.618 Fibonacci, preferably 0.50 or 0.382 and the

The first goal is to point 0.382 of the AD and the second target is 0.618 AD correction. A common point to choose a stop loss or is behind the X-Point. Conservative traders may seek additional approval by other indicators. Bat pattern can be downward and upward.
All patterns may fall into a wider range of trends or ranges, and traders should be aware of it (refer to Elliot Wave Theory for relevant information).

Here is step by step guide;

  • The first return from point A, which is the end point of the first wave, is 0.382 or 50% Fibonacci. Point B.
  • Point C can be anywhere between points A and B.
To get the area D.
  • Draw line 0.886.
  •  Calculate CD length to 1.27 * AB.
  • Draw Fibonacci Line 1.618.
  • In the bullish market, buy at Point D.
  • In the bearish market, sell at Point D.

See the following example of a Bat pattern on GBPUSD which I posted on eToro.

You can see the price jumped from 1.2770 to 1.3026. Yes, it feels good when your technical analysis works.
