Have you read "Trade What You See"? The gartley and butterfly are studied exclusively. A really good book

As a discretionary trader I don't have a "main" method. Rather a number of things that are used as circumstances dictate. For example, it might be that there are no harmonic patterns for the markets that I trade. Do I stop trading or ujse other indicators? Harmonic patterns are just in t he toolbox along with everything else and do not hold any superior position. Even when a pattern is present I always look for verification by other means which is the same requirement for any indicator that I use.

Re: Harmonic Patterns

Of course there is no ultimate single method or indicator. I just wanted people who use these patterns as a part of their system to share their knowledge&experience so that other traders can learn

Re: Harmonic Patterns

On BabyPips there is a huge thread on the intermingling of those patterns along with fibs. Have you read it? You may find it useful.
