Bo,
Do you think the fluctuation of the cable could be because of the Euro being so high and a short is in the process?
Not necessarily there isnt enough correllation between those 2 against the dollar each has its independant issues and conditions when compared to the dollar

Hey Bo, I know you don't trade the EUR/USD much, but if this isn't a picture perfect example of the fibs at work, I don't know what is. Chart 1 is the monday dailly intraday levels fibbed and tuesday with the fibs holding. Chart 2 was the result from yesterday.

Bobokus,

Interesting strategy… I guess that you have been trading "Fib breakout type strategy" for sometime. Would you mind sharing details below ?

 

  1. Payoff Ratio [$] (average winning trade /average losing trade)
  2. Profit factor or reward/risk ratio (gross profit/ gross loss)
  3. Probability of winning [%]( number of winning trades / number of losing trades)
  4. Maximum drawdown [$]
  5. Average capital risked[$]

Hi Brucehvn,

Nice chart, its a thing of beauty when Fibs works this way, now that T1 has been achieved or do I say the cycle has been completed, will you move the Fibs to the new high of yesterday and the Low of yesterday.

Also anyone looking at EU could chip in, only if i drew my fibs that way would have been quids in by now.

Honestly this thread is just to help traders understand fibs and how to use them in their trading plan and how to make an analysis of each currency (what are its breaking points/ what is its target range if it does break) its not everything that I do personally. It wouldnt be an accurate descripition. Making claims about how much someone can make from doing something like this is taking the thread in the wrong direction and implying that everyone will be successful at it which isnt the case. Some will get it some wont. Its just about understanding and applying fibs. The ones using this strategy are most likely just applying it to what they are already doing including me. Hopefully that makes sense.

Dont forget the bigger picture, its just reacting to that, remember the wedge forming we talked about last night, price is still honoring the fib when this wedge started.

This is my U/J charts and I'm wondering if these fibs look alright to you.

Daily - testing downward tl, converging with downtrend short fib which has proved pretty strong thus far. (Favoring shorts based on this)

4 hr - resistance fib has failed, however strong resistance area at 102.98. Therefore, I've left the resistance fib up and pulled a smaller support fib which I will be following along looking for a support break. Bulls are in control right now, but with 102.98 area coming up I'd be looking for shorts.

1 hr - I had a large resistance fib from 102.93 to support at 100.01. Since it broke I took it down. I now have support from 100.01 to 102.71 (will pull to new highs if created). Also pulled a swing fib that will adjust if new highs created. I also pulled a small res. fib which failed. I'll wait for the next retracement to pull again to wait for these levels to hold. 1 hr is looking extremely bullish right now, but again, 102.98 area seems to be the critical point to watch price action. And if price does reverse, the 1 hr support fibs is what I would be paying attention to and make sure these levels are broken along with following price with a resistance fib.

Please let me know what you think about above charts/analysis/fibs. Is there anything I can improve upon? The last chart is just a zoomed in version on my 1 hr.

I would like my intraday fibbs hold support to see if i could take a trade long.... the area that price should hold a good support is in the intraday green pivot since the 38.2 fibb of the swing fibb is in that area two.

This one I feel is pretty straightforward.

Daily - testing a downward tl, and retracement pivot. It has broken 1.9741 area, which had been holding as resistance (was previous sup). If it closes above 1.9866 I'd say that's a really strong bull move. and could signal a move to retracement long fib. (as i'm writing this price looks to be retreating a little)

4 hr - price has broken resistance and closed above retracement pivot. I've pulled in a support fib to see if these levels will hold.

1 hr - right now I only have a support fib pulled. I'm waiting for a retracement to pull in resistance fib and see if these levels hold. If these do not hold that would by my signal to go long. My Targets would be based on the low of today to the high of today. I don't have a fib pulled there right now, but I will depending on what happens.

I would prefer shorting cable, but it really depends on how she reacts to the 1 hr resistance fib when I can pull it and price action. If cable holds above 1.9866 I'd think she'd try to get to 1.9991.

By the way, about an hour ago I would've shorted with the double tops and price breaking the low of the second hourly candle, but I didn't play it b/c I'm waiting for Euro session.

Please let me know if there's anything I should change regarding fibs/analysis etc.

This is my daily chart....if price is to start coming down and does not respect the intraday fibbs in the smallet time frames it woul be because price meet resistance on purpl fibb and then i would maybe play the reversal ...Even though if support does hold in the intraday fibb then i would take the trade long.
