Gartley pattern
A harmonic pattern where B retraces 0.618 of XA and D completes at 0.786 of XA.
Why it matters
First described by H.M. Gartley in 1935 and later given exact ratios. D stays inside the XA swing, so it often marks a pullback within a trend.
How to read it
Zone near 0.786 of XA. The pattern fails if the price closes beyond X. Targets are 38.2% and 61.8% of the AD swing.
