The three entries were the original WZ move long into the candle body, the second at the second dotted blue line down and the third at the edge of the Demand Zone (the dotted lines are the micro Demand-Zones limits on the lower time-frames).
500-Flip (18:00 Flips 17:00)

Happy to get out of Dodge after price got to the 50-fib, as it was just taking too darned long to get anywhere in the Northwards direction.

The two main other ones along these lines that I use are on my Differentials acc and I don't post about the Diffs, as they are a very specialised market that very, very, few have access to and even fewer know what the heck they are!
It's not so much patterns as specific time-slots that give you a certain kind of price movement. The methods of trading those time slots are my usual variations on the TRO theme.
My day is broken down into blocks:
(Pre UK Open - EURGBP Frankenbreak - don't get to run this much if at all anymore as I run my DAX at the same time-slot).
DAX-Monster - at UK Open. 2-Hr block run WZ tech. My main method. Very dangerous but so much bang-for-your-buck.
Dead Zone - lead in to US Open. 1 Hr candle WZ tech.
500-Flip.
Witching Hour v1 + v2 - A Dead Zone run over the 23:00 and Midnight UK-Time run by (guess what) WZ tech.
Over-and-above this and depending on mood, inclination and level of boredom, I will run HOLO, TooSLow 1-2-3 and simply scalp the m5 / m1 on The DAX.
Everything is overlaid by the pair in use's Daily Wick Zone and Supply + Demand Zones.
There is also the UK GBP-''Fix'' candle at the lead-in to the end of the UK day but I have dropped that. I wasn't finding the performance I wanted. The Flip is much better.

Lol. It should be no surprise to learn that the most financial oomph comes from the first method, The DAX, as that means I can make my daily target in about, err...5 seconds and then go back to my pit if I want
All the rest is jam on top, or as fill-in if I can't run The Monster for whatever reason.

Haha, damn man that must be nice. I have looked at the DAX before. Might have to take a peek.

Please be careful. It is a very dangerous beast. I do call it The Monster for a reason.
