a very simple question would answer whether it's holy grail.

Does "i-IntradayFibonacci" repaint/expand after the first dot is drawn on 00:00 GMT ?

Yes, it redraw = Not Holy grail

No, it remain the same all day = Holy grail
I hope it is the 2nd one. But this shouldn't repaint though, fibs itself don't repaint.

my trading simulator shows it does not move. Ok try this right now.

Take down the price which the 4 line is been drawn right now. Check tomorrow whether the price is still the same.

Continue to do this if it's the same for a couple of days. If it's all the same, you have to plan to buy a house/car/etc soon.

btw, my chance of being wrong is 95%

I am planning to pay off my mortgage sooner then 25 years

ok verified. It redraws/expand [big time].

Back to the drawing board.

P.S Expected to be wrong since 95% is hard to miss.

if they change then I have found another way with fibs, works very well.

But really I was expecting the lines to expand just like the last weeks.

I remember I have studied similar price action a year and half ago but I didn't understood and gave up and here I am with it again but this time I can understand.

EURUSD. The expansion is caused by the new low.

I am doing some back testing, with in an hour I will post the new one and we can start practising it starting tomorrow night at 00:00 GMT. Needs some practise and it will become easy, I am also using stocastics to show me the orverbought and oversold and gets easier what the price will do.

Hi fellow traders,

Phew! you were so close to discovering the holy grail Well, no worries there is always an alternative, but there is no 100% in the world of probability.

Alright, I've been trading the same box as fed's rules even before the creation of this thread & sometimes I trade the brakout of "just" candle 05:00GMT on smaller time frames. Anyway excellent job Mr. fed


Now, until fed come up with his alternative solution I'd like to help and post my rules, it's so easy and simple just add the indicators to the chart and backtest it visually. Here goes:

1- Add EMA-90 or SMA-50 and enter long when the price breaks north above the MA, and enter short when the price breaks south below the MA. (why the specified MA?! simply cuz I use them, so find your best MA if none suits you).

2- Special case: i.e. what if the the price breaks north below the MA?? (which usually happens at reversals)---> Add RSI period 13 with level 50 and trade this kind of BO if the RSI confirms by crossing up level 50 and vise versa.


P.S. I trade the 1Hour but I think it's applicable for smaller TF.

Enjoy it guys & happy trading.

Two questions:
1. What is BO?
2. Did you do backtest by manually open trade?
Simple is powerful all the time.

Come on guys, we all know there is no such thing as a holy grail.

I use Fib numbers on the daily charts to help to figure out when the move might be dying, if the trade bounces of a fib number it generally means its over, but if it breaks there is a good chance it will head straight for the second fib number.

Fed your strategy is working well for ur entries and exits, but mayb you should just use Fibs for looking at different exit levels not entry levels. Or why even change it at all?
