Fibonacci & The Golden Ratio

Traders use the Fibonacci retracement levels as potential support and resistance levels. Since so many traders watch these same levels and place buy and sell orders on them to enter trades, the support and resistance levels tend to become a self-fulfilling prophecy.


Traders use the Fibonacci extension levels as profit taking levels. Again, since so many traders are watching these levels to place buy and sell orders to take profits, this tool tends to work more often than not due to self-fulfilling expectations.


Finding Fibonacci Retracement Levels

In order to find these Fibonacci retracement levels, you have to find the price exhaustion point.


From there, use the "Fibonacci retracement" tools from your charting software.



Fibonacci retracement for entries

Here we plotted the Fibonacci retracement levels by clicking on the Swing Low at 2107.75 and dragging the cursor to the Swing High at 2110.75! The software will magically shows you the retracement levels.
