The entire PRZ must be tested with initial reaction complete. A continuation of the
predominant trend usually occurs after the price action has tested the entire range of
harmonic numbers in the PRZ. Although the extent of this nominal reaction varies, the
price action usually does not retrace beyond the limits of the harmonic zone. Essentially,
the initial test yields only a minor consolidation before resuming in the predominant
trend to exceed the PRZ.
• Respect the Terminal Price Bar. The Terminal Price Bar—the initial price bar that tests
the entire PRZ—establishes the defining limit for the violation of the PRZ. Furthermore,
the Terminal Price Bar defines the reversal entry with respect to the failed PRZ.
• Precise Stop Loss Limits. All stop loss limits must be defined well in advance, and
they usually are based upon the range of the prior PRZ and the extreme of the Terminal
Price Bar.
