Exotic Harmonics is the definitive clean build of the exotic harmonics catalog: the Nen Star, White Swan and Black Swan, five-point XABCD structures specified by ratio windows outside the classic set. Confirmed swings alternate to supply the X, A, B, C and D anchors; when a fresh D swing lands inside a pattern's windows, the build draws the legs and measured ratios, checks the embedded AB=CD® for confluence, and lays down a risk template.

How to Trade the Exotic Harmonics?

  • Bullish completion: a swing-low D inside the windows. Watch the zone for reversal evidence higher. Bearish completions mirror at a swing-high D.
  • AB=CD confluence: when the embedded projection lands with the XA-derived completion, the D label notes it and a dedicated alert fires.
  • Invalidation line: a decisive close beyond the tolerated D extreme kills the setup mechanically.
  • T1 0.382 / T2 0.618: initial targets on the CD leg, each tracked with its own alert.

Exotic Harmonics Settings

  • Swing Length (default 10): bars each side confirming the anchor swings.
  • Nen Star, White Swan, Black Swan (all default on): which structures are scanned.
  • Ratio Tolerance (default 0.05): accepted deviation for the Nen Star's XA anchor and the AB=CD check; also pads its invalidation extreme.
  • Nen Star Ratios: B of XA 0.382–0.786, C of AB 1.13–1.414, D of BC 1.272–2.0, D of XA Anchor 1.272.
  • White Swan Ratios: B of XA 0.382–0.724, C of AB 2.0–4.237, D of BC 0.5–0.886, D of XA 0.236–0.886.
  • Black Swan Ratios: B of XA 1.382–2.618, C of AB 0.236–0.5, D of BC 1.128–2.0, D of XA 1.128–2.618.
  • Point Labels, Leg Ratio Labels, Pattern Fill, Embedded AB=CD Projection, Trade Levels (all on) and Leg Line Width (default 2) control the drawings.
