Just an observation

The Crab pattern is similar to a Butterfly pattern in that it is a reversal pattern composed of four legs marked X-A, A-B, B-C and C-D.
Like the Butterfly, it can help you identify when a current price move is likely approaching its end. This means you can enter the market just as the price reverses direction.
As with many patterns, there is a bullish and a bearish version of the Crab
Identify where the pattern will complete at point D – this will be at the 161.8% extension of the X-A leg. Place a buy order here.
If you want an aggressive profit target, however, you can place it at point A of the pattern. For a more conservative profit target, place it at point B.

Like many harmonic patterns, fibonacci retracemnts are used
