Zone Lines


 

When displaying Pending and Confirmed patterns, horizontal reference lines will be drawn at price levels that are relevant to that particular pattern, and we refer to these as zone lines. These zone lines define the Potential Reversal Zone (PRZ).

 

Zone lines are drawn as dashed lines, and the ratio and price level are displayed at the end of each line. The length of these zone lines is controlled by the Zone Bars option under Settings. The default is 10 bars in length. If you do not wish to display the zone lines then set the Zone Bars parameter to 0.

 

There is also a Auto-Extend feature that you can toggle in the Settings menu. When Auto-Extend is turned on the zone lines will be extended up through the end of the next pattern drawn, or up to the current price bar if there is no next pattern.  Lastly, The size of the text can be controlled via the Font Size option also found under Settings.

 

Note that the target lines (i.e., T1 and T2) are extended further than all of the other zone lines. By default all target lines are extended by an additional 10 bars, but you can adjust this in Settings.

 

For most patterns we display the following zone lines:

For the 5-0 pattern we display the following zone lines:

 

At the price level defined by the 0.500 BC retracement

 

At the price level that would create a AB=CD leg length match.

 

The Stop is also displayed based on the actual pattern ratios. The 5-0 pattern does not have defined targets so none are displayed.

5-0

Potential patterns follow the guidelines listed above for Confirmed/Pending patterns but we omit the target and stop levels.
