I am not saying do not use the zig zag, bucause It is one of my favorite indicators. But first you need to read some books on harmonic patterns, learn to reconize them without an indicator (zup)

Try adding another indicator to your charts like the MACD, or my favorite RSI
to confirm the pattern
The RSI will confirm the pattern by makinga "M" pattern for a sell or a "W" pattern for a buy and will work on any time frame. Spotting the "M" or "W" on RSI is money in the bank if you can confirm it is a Gartley

Bottom line read some books
