{quote} You always trade the trend which is also the Fibo trend (Red or Green). Taking a trade from the 0.0 is your projection as you create your trading plans. So wherever you place your trade you need 40 pips before the 100. If you no not have at least 40 pips to the 100 Fibo for an entry then you are at risk. That is what I meant by "you will get your 40 before the Fibo". And yes - standard Divergence in the Fibo.
Yes understood.

Dana, one last question please.
Do you personally, or recommend to only trade the direction of the Fibs (to minimize the risk);
So when the H2 Fibs is RED then only look to short even if the Paradox is indicating a turn (like White/Smooth Purple cross, Parabolic flipped, etc...) for the up during a RED Fibo and vice-versa for a GREEN Fibo? and only to trade for the long during a RED Fibo when the market is a full blown uptrend and vice-versa?
Or it doesn't matter as long as the rules are not broken.

Thanks.

You are asking a very hypercritical question: to judge by strict standards. Such as the H1 is now with a Green Fibo. You also have the DB/SAR attached on the H2 with the lower BB flat and ROMAR as support. Not to mention the Standard Divergence attached on the bottom of the H4 with the DB/SAR attached.

To answer your question - You always trade by the rules.

Dove,
Thank you so much for your lessons on Fibos and Divergence. I have copied all the thread into word and do search for different subjects like balance, fibos, senarios, trend etc etc and its been very helpful. I am finding more you learn, you realise the less you know... its an amazing discovery journey learning the Paradox. Even though I am not posting my trading plans I check them against others and see which works out. Thank you for posting your recent trade, I found that very valuable. Perhaps you can do it after the event again...
Blessings from me to you all, on my healing journey.

Final note:
H1 H2 H4 everything is pointing for the down causing the Daily SAR to show up on the Daily Parabolic support. Also H1 Fibs flipped to green, and H2 H4 current Fibs is still RED (edited)
Projected entry
Right now the market is at the Daily Parabolic support, could look to go long if H1 H2 syncs for the up together and indicates an up move.
Or could also look to short at resistance if EMA doesn't show a turn and if there is enough room to the bottom.

Trading downtrend consolidated trend. Before fibo 100 there are 40 points to enter. Bars closed below fibo 61.8 at H2 and H4. My risks: 1. The market can go to the side in anticipation of the riders. 2. Romar H4 has not yet become support. 3. Fib H1 green already.
Given the risks of waiting for a rollback riders (the third candle does not balance with purple)
Consider buying with Fibo Н2 flip and tuned riders

{quote} Everything you say is true. What I have been doing the last couple of weeks is teaching in how to use the Paradox Fibos. The Fibo is a very heavy support and resistance; especially off the 0.0 line. In this scenario you had the 23.6 hit and held for a pullback (retrace) back towards the 0.0 line. Because of the DB with Divergences at the 0.0 line you had a reversal in the makings. So - in order to get in for the reversal you had to wait for the right opportunity for the entry going short. That means the 4 Horsemen had to be in the set up...
Dana, could you please explain what you mean by saying "If ROMAR was traveling through downtown central (at Purple)"? Thanks in advance.

{quote} Dana, could you please explain what you mean by saying "If ROMAR was traveling through downtown central (at Purple)"? Thanks in advance.
Let me answer you. These were explanations for me and I understood them. Although I have trouble with English
Romar can be held in the center, above, maybe from below. It moves depending on the location of the purple. For example, in consolidation when the DB was at the top of Fibo 0 (125.936 each), the romar caught up with purple rising up. Then purple went down and the romar slowed the rise and walked down the center. Now purple came down under Romar and the romar began to descend again. Yesterday I had the risk of getting TP (if there were no red news), because it was close to the romar. A romar began to rise and TP could soon become under Romar. And this is a failure

Ok my SL hasn’t been hit but this is a losing trade. This is something I want to get right. I know when we post our plans, we are looking for 40 each day. This way we can nail our entry’s and really understand how the market moves. Now this might be my EGO talking but I think if my understanding is correct this will take me a long way. When the H2 PSAR flipped with the red fib and Div on top the market went down to 61.8 just like you said. Its was a trip of about 74 pips from your entry below purple. Now the fib has flipped to green. And again, we are right around H4 61.8. I’ve been trying to understand how the market moves “big picture” as I think this will help dramatically.
At my entry knowing the above would have been reason not to trade long as 61.8 wasn’t hit yet (but EMA was). The other thing I didn’t like about my entry was how the 2:00 bar closed. It didn’t close at the bottom of the bar (about 10pips up for the bottom) I don’t know if this is relevant and im not sure if there is such a thing as bar balance. Im not sure if you posted about it, but im looking for it now. If this is true and im not making it up, bar balance would have also stopped me from entering. Bar balance would be another reason to wait for the open of a bar to enter a trade with DB.
Rules for Consolidation; we trade from the top down and bottom up. We us the Daily for support and resistance. When the H2 PSAR flips we no longer use the 4HM as support or resistance.
The flip took us down to EMA and now below it. Daily EMA and PSAR trend is not too strong and I believe this is why we are below EMA... Daily SAR is now at the bottom and BB are flat. Green fib on H2.

OK Devon - lets start with your entry going Long with the H2 in a downtrend including the Fibo Red. And as the market moved south the H1 Fibo turned Green and then the H2 Fibo turned Green. BUT - the H4 is still Red. Both the H1 and H2 kept bumping the Green 0.0 Fibo down so the H4 can hit the 61.8. That , my friend is the target and all trades has ended. The reason is at that level is when the market is looking for the reversal of the Fibos. As you can see on all three H1, H2, and the H4 you have a Triple Bottom at the 0.0 of the H1 and H2. with the H4 ROMAR holding support just above the 61.8.

Now - this is the reason all trades had ended because the H4 is fighting the 61.8. The H1 and H2 is waiting on the H4 reversal as it is still in the downtrend. The 23.6 of the H1 and H2 is also holding resistance. So in other words - the market is stuck between the 23.6 resistance and the H4 61.8 support. What is depending on what will happen is the H2 EMA - either a slider for a continuance of the H4 down - or an open above the H2 EMA for a reversal. In the moment the market is working back above the 61.8 and ROMAR. The Daily still holding support with the parabolic.

The major problem with the market last night was with Donald Trump and his speech to the Nation. There wasn't much room for any trade going south because of the Fibo's, little alone going north.

Does that help you.

Yes it does. I do understand that the fib can bump a few pips 8-10 on the top side in consolidation and 10-15 pips on the low side in consolidation. and can continue to bump in trend. And I do understand more now about the target at H4 61.8 and potential reversal at the H4 61.8. Thank you very much!

So far it looks as though the H4 is going to a number to keep the Daily ROMAR resistance in-tacked. H1 and H2 ROMAR'S are already set up and the H4 is one bar from the EMA crossing. We will know for sure in about 3 hours.

The market is moving in the side. I expect confirmation of a reversal to enter purchases or to continue a consolidated downtrend for sales. I follow the levels of 23.6 fibo H2 and 61.8 H4. To enter the purchase you need to open a candle above these levels. DBs with two diverters are at 0 Fibo, and this can be a good entry into the purchase. You need to wait for the riders and the opening of the candle at the fibo levels

Wasn't looking to short because the market was always around the Daily Parabolic support and the Daily Parabolic support was far from flipping.
And didn't want to long unless H2 showed an indication of a turn and not a slider.

Teacher, I know you already gave the answer to this question. BUT I will ask it again.
At the beginning of training on page 134-135, many entered into transactions when there were no 40 points before fibo 0.
Here today. We know that Fibo H4 red will be completed. The candle opens below the EMA H2, all riders on the graphs H1, H2, H4 are set down. To 0 H2 Fibo no 40 points. The market is going down. Knowing about H4, can we go into a deal from EMA H2 without 40 points to fibo 0 H2? Is it today in this scenario?
Either I will find a way, or I will make one...
