Please don't share personal info here


As far as Bo's fibo I like the one labled" bobokus fibo", the monthly and weekly as well, all of the other ones are too tight, meant for a 5 min chart or somthing.
downloaded about 9 variation, or how ever any there were, and they all show something different, will have to see which works best.

If you have MT4 Draw a normal fibo on your chart
then click on objects list, select fibo, select edit, go to parameters
and add them in manually. It take a few minutes but its worth it.
Most of the settings are already there you just have to rename them and
add the others.

been watching EJ, the 3ma alert fired that one at me earlier, daily 8x13 crossed up also. tempted to buy but don't know the pair so waiting, glad to see it on your thread, make it worth thinking about again.

think i'm going to wait for the 4h 13x100 cross and then pick the retracement to the 8 above the 100.

thats a massive target though, but the ma's crossing would support it.

4h we also have the 13 crossing the 100 and the the candle has crossed the long fibo from the last swing down.
look for resistance from the last high (redline) and the 200.
all sings point north but I would wait for the interest statement before trading or jump in now and ride it out.

yes but it hit that before and then hit the short, so i think sit it out and wait for the 4h 13x100 long signal. for me anyway

Just to add to this, if you put a %$ after the lable, it will give the price at each level.

EJ went up to the 4hr 200ema then reversed, These are tough market conditions, It's hard to leave any position open for any length of time, so until this corrective period is over it will be scalping for 20 pips and running. looking mostly at the hour charts and then zoom in to the 15 min to get a clearer picture of where the price is in the fibo's. This is temporary.
Once the markets settle down it will be back to day trading.

do you scalp off the 8x13 or do you use a different system?

I still use the 8x13, under the 200 from the daily down. so on the daily charts price will be below the 200 (most pairs) then keep going down to shorter TF's until the price is above the 200. draw up a fibo on the last wave or swing movement then wait for the price to drop below the 200 and the short zone of the fibo's go for T1 or T2 depending on price action, exit., call it a day or look for another opportunity somewhere else.

Here is EJ 1hr. inside a triangle, passed the short zone, target is the 200 and the bottom line of the triangle. which will give me around 30 pips. will watch to see if it breaks out of triangle. Waiting for this 15 min bull candle to finish and once another bear comes in I will go in.
8X13 on the 15 and 30 min.

EurChf - nice bounce of the 4h 100, waiting for the daily 8x13 down to enter, i think the retracement has ended and short it will continue, just waiting for the confirmation
