Harmonic Patterns 



With extensive experience as an electrical/software/coding engineer along with having a diverse financial background, Thomas Wettermann’s areas of interest include Machine Learning (ML), artificial intelligence (AI), and Financial Technology (FinTech). For the past few years, Thomas Wettermann has focused on the underlying technologies that support and promote all phases of cryptocurrency ecosystems. 

Traders use harmonic patterns as a form of technical analysis to identify specific types of price chart patterns. These patterns are used to predict future price movements of an underlying asset. Harmonic patterns can be applied to all types of assets, including cryptocurrencies. 

What Are Harmonic Patterns? 

Harmonic patterns represent specific formations that arise frequently in price charts. They help traders understand price action and predict the direction of the price. In addition, these patterns are used to identify trend reversal patterns so that traders can initiate a trade with a high probability of success. 

Harmonic patterns represent various price action points of an asset, like a stock. These patterns are highly structured and rely upon the application of Fibonacci ratios. By identifying patterns of varying lengths and magnitudes, Fibonacci ratios can be applied to predict future movements of the asset. 

Harmonic patterns illustrate a progression of up and down legs or price movements. Most common harmonic patterns include a progression of four legs or four pricing movements. These legs or pricing movements are defined by 5 price points in time. The lengths of these legs follow strict mathematical ratios. These mathematical ratios are represented by Fibonacci levels and represent the main retracement levels used for harmonic patterns. 

The pricing movements of different harmonic patterns can have different Fibonacci ratios. Fibonacci retracements and extensions are used to identify potential reversal zones: where there is a high probability that the price will reverse.
