price has made a nice drop today but simply because it has dropped a ton dont begin to set bottoms on price because you can miss a short if price tells you that way... price is still very bearish and keep in mind that support at price 9335 of the retracement low is now looked at as resistance and that also matches up with the swing short so a long should be treated like a very tight scalp, for the risk itself I would wait for price to start proving support in the support fibb first (red fibb)

I forgot to say this...ask yourself this is it really worth taking the break of the previous candles high (black arrow) when we only have so much space to run before finding a major resistance from the retracement low as well as the swing low?

My answer is no...let support prove itself first...this is my opinion...
what do you guys think...

Hello!
I would like to show You, how I use the fib lines.
I set the fib high & low to the retracement high & low, (not to the swing high & low), as You see on the attachments. This way requires much less fib lines, and the lines you see is more directly connected with the recent movement. The lines I use, is 0.382, 0.618, 1.618, 2.0, 2.618, and the mirror of those (-0.618, -1.0, -1.618).
On the above examples, the swing high is on the 2.0 / -1.0 level, so the retracement is 50% of the swing. This way I don't use 0.5, 0.72, or other lines, but You see, I have the all lines, that I need (I mean, the 0.618 and 1.382 of the retracement, and the possible target lines, 1.618, 2, and 2.618 of retracement).

A break of the previous candles low can be a good short setup based on price action and the fact price rejected to continue up after braking the small siwng high...

Hi everyone. Want to say that its wonderful all the work everyone has done on fibs. I've never seen a group of avid fibbers like this on line. Have read most of the thread and started back testing somethings. I was looking at the daily chart for EURCAD and saw a price drop on 12/24/07 of 7150 pips. Did the Canadians or Europeans assasinate Santa Claus that day? What was the news that day or was everyone cashing in for Christmas?

I dont follow that pair but it seems that would just be bad data.

Im not sure I understand how your placing your Intraday. Are you saying your Intraday is drawn from 2 weeks ago ?. The Intraday is what you want to measure basically each days movement and you move it up each day. Mine would have looked like this.

So Bo, unless I see the mushroom cloud in the distance I can assume a drop like 7150 pips in one day is bad data and not the apocalype, right? I had traded that day I assume the trade would be voided, correct?

Maybe this can help some of you new guys see whats going on today and the fib progression of following it to see when it can possibly hit a bottom. As long as these little retracements we get and you place a swing on them, price will continue down until we get to a swing where its support levels hold.Until that happens the Intraday fib conitues to grow by pulling the low of it until we show signs of stalling or retracing.

continued on the next post................

Now we get to the point we are now, where price is beginning to make another one of these small waves up and we repeat the process with the swing to see if its levels hold. The Intraday growing like this will increase the resistance found at its levels also. Blood in the water!, too bad im out of it.
