What is probability of good returns in case of bat or a crab patterns?

<p id="isPasted">Harmonic Patterns, such as the crab patterns, are purely natural due to the influence of Fibonacci levels. They are widely used by retail traders and they work if used in a proper manner and risk management. Without managing risk, you will not be able to profit from trading.</p><p>Make sure to properly backtest these patterns (at least 75 times) before trading on live account.</p><p id="isPasted">Crab pattern as was said in the beginning is quite a precise harmonic pattern with good risk to reward ratio.</p><p>Around D point you can expect high volatility where you could use automatic entering into the trade with buy limit in case of bullish Crab pattern and with Sell limit in case of bearish Crab pattern.</p><p>Crab pattern as any&nbsp;other harmonic pattern&nbsp;requires certain skills to be drawn or spotted on the chart, but with the help of&nbsp;harmonic scanner&nbsp;you can help yourself to save time.</p><p class="forexqa-img-container">If you want to see which trading tips are useful that will help you in trading harmonic patterns feel free to download them on the link below.<img src="https://prod-forexqna.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/froala_editor/images/1747375775382.png" style="width: 730px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-draggable forexqa-img"></p><p><br></p><p id="isPasted">The harmonic bat pattern strategy is very difficult to backtest with precise trading rules and settings. Unfortunately, we are not able to make any meaningful backtest of the pattern. One way to backtest could be to use the zig-zag indicator, but the indicator is forward-looking and not reliable.</p><p>In general, because of the lack of objectivity, we believe classical chart patterns might be a dead end for traders. Why would you spend time on something that is not backtested where you have no clue if the pattern is profitable or not? How do you know a pattern is profitable if you have not backtested it?</p><p>A backtest doesn’t guarantee anything, but at least you know it has been profitable in the past. If the pattern has not been profitable in the past, you can safely skip it and not waste any more time. Trading is about having a portfolio of trading strategies, not having one or a few subjective classical chart patterns. There is no best trading strategy because you need many to smooth returns.</p>
