In a Bullish trend, if a price does not cross the Trigger line and returns toward top and touches the 3 rd pivot line, even if eventually price crosses the Trigger line towards the bottom, a Sell signal will not be valid or reliable. The 3 rd failure format is formed when a price oscillates between the 3 rd and the 1 st pivot lines, followed by a movement towards the Trigger line.
In another example on an upward trend, a pattern could not create any Buy signal after the price has crossed the 3 rd pivot line towards the bottom.
After a price has crossed the 3 rd pivot, there would not be any Sell signal on this pattern. In a Bearish format, if price goes near the 3 rd pivot line after it has met the 1 st pivot line, followed by another wave lower than the 3 rd pivot line, then crossing the 3 rd pivot line does not produce any Buy signals.Ī Bearish example on MT4 illustrates first failure format. In another failure condition, in a Bullish format, if a price touches the 3 rd pivot line after it has met the 1 st pivot line, followed by another wave over the 3 rd pivot line, then crossing the 3 rd pivot line does not produce any Sell signals.
On the other hand, if a price passes the 3 rd pivot line after it has touched the 1 st pivot line, then any Sell signal would be unreliable. In an Andrew’s Pitchfork pattern, if a price crosses the 3 rd pivot line after it has touched the 1 st pivot line, then any Buy signal would be invalid in a Bullish pattern.
